THIS BOOK offers a historical, formal analysis of video games that
no other book to date has provided in such detail
___
Overall, the work
is well-researched and is a good examination of the history of the
technology behind video games.Wolf also effectively investigates the
scientific and market forces that aligned with the development of
video games to create a powerful cultural force.

ver a
mere three decades, the video game has become the entertain¬
ment medium of choice for millions of people, who now spend
more time in the interactive virtual world of games than they do in
watching movies or even television. The release of new games or game-playing
equipment, such as the PlayStation®2, generates great excitement and even
buying frenzies. Yet, until now, this giant on the popular culture landscape has
received little in-depth study or analysis.
In this book, Mark J. P. Wolf and four other scholars conduct the first
thorough investigation of the video game as an artistic medium. The book
begins with an attempt to define what is meant by the term video game and
the variety of modes of production within the medium. It moves on to a brief
history of the video game, then applies the tools of film studies to look at the
medium in terms of the formal aspects of space, time, narrative, and genre.
The book also considers the video game as a cultural entity, object of museum
curation, and repository of psychological archetypes. It closes with a list of
video game research resources for further study.
Mark I. P. Wolf is Assistant Professor in the Communication Department
