If a mother can perform her role and depart she’s succeeded, and with a little luck her son will pass this fatherly test and become a man.

…into a radicalized faithful, all in perpetu*]}*al pursuit of profit.

While these communities have undoubtedly enhanced the monetary and entertainment value of various franchises, they have also sustained a disturbing new emotional climate that extends beyond fortifying the power and profitability of corporations. In conflating consumption with politics, the passion of fandom has been stoked into a reservoir of entitlement and, at its extremes, incipient violence.

    …legacy of CYOA books (video link, CC/auto-captions), and asserts that the game’s multiple endings don’t necessarily lead to one unified “message.” Over on his Folding Ideas channel, Dan Olson focuses on the player’s opportunity to choose negation over affirmation in TSP (video link, CC/auto-captions), and how a similar feeling of disobedience is also at work in Dark Souls.

    In an article for PopMatters, Eric Swain examines choice in TSP in terms of spatial relativity, arriving at the conclusion that “In the end, any individual playthrough from beginning to whatever end that the player arrives at is only a part…

    …city of Florence to the Los Angeles of Baudrillard. For Baudrillard, Disneyland sets up the convenient fiction that there is a “real” America outside of its fantasy world. But Los Angeles is itself “hyperreal”, an empire of simulated authenticity. By analogy, Dow replaces Baudrillard’s Disneyland/Los Angeles pair with AC2/Florence: AC2 is a fiction of hyper-real “historic Florence”, the tourist destination. Furthermore, AC2’s “game-within-a-game” structure helps highlight this relationship between the simulated and the hyperreal: because the player is playing the virtu*]}*al memory of a character (Desmond), she can address her encounter with historical Florence as a simulation.

    …Half-Life 2’s Valor | cohost Jeremy Signor speculates on how maybe, just maybe, Portal 2 was Half-Life 3 all along.

    “Suddenly, Portal was at the vanguard, but endured by cannibalizing many of the features of Half-Life as a whole. But in doing so, in taking on the bulk of AAA, fleshing out a story, and inserting cutscene walls stopping the action, Portal 2 becomes something else. It’s no longer the compact, breezy experience that made Portal the phenomenon it was. Instead, it became the replacement for Half-Life 2 at a time when its story was still incomplete….

After all, many Americans still consider the American Revolutionary War to be a battle between the United States vs. the British Empire, rather than the actu*]}*al battle between the United States, the British, our Native American allies, their Native American allies, our European allies, their European and Canadian allies, our freed/enslaved African Americans soldiers, and their freed African American soldiers.

    It’s safe to say that Ubisoft’s post-colonial take on the American Revolution was noticed by every commentator who cared to write about AC3. Should audiences expect the War of Independence (video link with autocaptions),…

    Grand Theft Auto IV

    …Niko can choose between two assassination targets, or to let his enemies go free. As Nick Dinicola mentions in his critique of karma systems, even though the player is free to choose to kill, say, Playboy X or Dwayne, the guiding principles of the main character point towards only one choice, even though there’s no explicit karma system. Several developers who played the game made their choice for just this reason, as did N’Gai Croal. Some, however, did not, and Wes Erdelack argued that the substantially better in-game reward for killing Playboy X poisons this dilemma. In general, however, the…
