Gamer Girls: Monster Village - Andrea Towers - Bog - Andrews McMeel Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Gamer Girls are four besties who prove that girls can game! But when a new game comes out, it's not a hit with everyone. Maybe they should stick to video game battles instead of middle school arguments! Celia, Natalie, Lucy, and Jess are the Gamer Girls—four gamers devoted to showing that girls can game, too. They stream together every Friday night and they’re also BFFs. Celia is the artsy, creative one of the group, so it’s no surprise when she starts designing merch for their new club. But when she falls in love with a new, cozy game called Monster Village, it’s a far cry from her friends’ action-packed battle royales. Can the Gamer Girls find common ground, or is their new club doomed? In this second illustrated book of the all-new series, Gamer Girls, four friends navigate the video game world and the middle school world . . . if only they could solve drama like defeating monsters! This series is perfect for teens and tween readers who love video games.

Alle gamer - Sara Sadiq Frost - Bog - Grønningen 1 - Plusbog.dk

Alle gamer - Sara Sadiq Frost - Bog - Grønningen 1 - Plusbog.dk

Alle gamer er en håndbog i gamingkulturen – både for supergameren, der kan grine og genkende, og for forælderen med en 12-årig søn, hvis univers man vil lære bedre at kende. Sproget fra gaming-verdenen har fundet vej ud i vores hverdag og med en tredjedel af verdens befolkning, der gamer, er det mere relevant at få samling på de mest essentielle ord end nogensinde. Denne ordbog indeholder beskrivelsen af mere end 400 ord med både oprindelse, betydning, eksempler og illustrationer. Helt nye ord og ord, der igennem gaming har fået en anden betydning. Ordbogen kan gøre dig klogere på de udtryk, du ikke har fået placeret endnu, eller introducere dig til et helt nyt sprogunivers, du nu har mulighed for at forstå. Sara Sadiq Frost har spillet konsolspil, siden hun var otte år, og har skabt YouTube-talkshowet ‘Alle Gamer’, som hun også er vært på. Her har hun besøg af personer, vi allesammen kender, med vidt forskellige forhold til gaming. Sara er igennem dette blevet en nøglefigur i dialogen om gaming og dens kulturelle indflydelse. Tobias Cadin har mere end 10 års erfaring i arbejdet med unge, hvor han primært har beskæftiget sig med at undersøge ungdomskulturelle strømninger. Hans bog, Gade/dansk ordbog fra 2014, blev en bestseller og var med til at belyse og legitimere gadesprog.

Gamer Trouble - Amanda Phillips - Bog - New York University Press - Plusbog.dk

Gamer Trouble - Amanda Phillips - Bog - New York University Press - Plusbog.dk

Complicating perspectives on diversity in video games Gamers have been troublemakers as long as games have existed. As our popular understanding of "gamer" shifts beyond its historical construction as a white, straight, adolescent, cisgender male, the troubles that emerge both confirm and challenge our understanding of identity politics. In Gamer Trouble, Amanda Phillips excavates the turbulent relationships between surface and depth in contemporary gaming culture, taking readers under the hood of the mechanisms of video games in order to understand the ways that difference gets baked into its technological, ludic, ideological, and social systems. By centering the insights of queer and women of color feminisms in readings of online harassment campaigns, industry animation practices, and popular video games like Portal and Mass Effect, Phillips adds essential analytical tools to our conversations about video games. She embraces the trouble that attends disciplinary crossroads, linking the violent hate speech of trolls and the representational practices marginalizing people of color, women, and queers in entertainment media to the dehumanizing logic undergirding computation and the optimization strategies of gameplay. From the microcosmic level of electricity and flicks of a thumb to the grand stages of identity politics and global capitalism, wherever gamers find themselves, gamer trouble follows. As reinvigorated forms of racism, sexism, and homophobia thrive in games and gaming communities, Phillips follows the lead of those who have been making good trouble all along, agitating for a better world.

Gamer Nation - John (senior Lecturer In American History Wills - Bog - Johns Hopkins University Press - Plusbog.dk

Gamer Nation - John (senior Lecturer In American History Wills - Bog - Johns Hopkins University Press - Plusbog.dk

Explores how games actively influence the ways people interpret and relate to American life. In 1975, design engineer Dave Nutting completed work on a new arcade machine. A version of Taito's Western Gun, a recent Japanese arcade machine, Nutting's Gun Fight depicted a classic showdown between gunfighters. Rich in Western folklore, the game seemed perfect for the American market; players easily adapted to the new technology, becoming pistol-wielding pixel cowboys. One of the first successful early arcade titles, Gun Fight helped introduce an entire nation to video-gaming and sold more than 8,000 units. In Gamer Nation, John Wills examines how video games co-opt national landscapes, livelihoods, and legends. Arguing that video games toy with Americans' mass cultural and historical understanding, Wills show how games reprogram the American experience as a simulated reality. Blockbuster games such as Civilization, Call of Duty, and Red Dead Redemption repackage the past, refashioning history into novel and immersive digital states of America. Controversial titles such as Custer's Revenge and 08.46 recode past tragedies. Meanwhile, online worlds such as Second Life cater to a desire to inhabit alternate versions of America, while Paperboy and The Sims transform the mundane tasks of everyday suburbia into fun and addictive challenges. Working with a range of popular and influential games, from Pong, Civilization, and The Oregon Trail to Grand Theft Auto, Silent Hill, and Fortnite, Wills critically explores these gamic depictions of America. Touching on organized crime, nuclear fallout, environmental degradation, and the War on Terror, Wills uncovers a world where players casually massacre Native Americans and Cold War soldiers alike, a world where neo-colonialism, naive patriotism, disassociated violence, and racial conflict abound, and a world where the boundaries of fantasy and reality are increasingly blurred. Ultimately, Gamer Nation reveals not only how video games are a key aspect of contemporary American culture, but also how games affect how people relate to America itself.

Why It's OK to Be a Gamer - Nicholas R. Baima - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Why It's OK to Be a Gamer - Nicholas R. Baima - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

If you enjoy video games as a pastime, you are certainly not alone—billions of people worldwide now play video games. However, you may still find yourself reluctant to tell others this fact about yourself. After all, we are routinely warned that video games have the potential to cause addiction and violence. And when we aren’t being warned of their outright harms, we are told we should be doing something better with our time, like going outside, socializing with others, or reading a book. Playing video games is thus often seen at best as a waste of time, and at worst a source of violent tragedy. Why It’s OK to Be a Gamer takes on the pervasive assumption that playing video games is a childish and time-wasting hobby, and a potentially addictive and dangerous one at that. It argues instead that there are many ways in which gaming can help us flourish, for example by: developing genuine friendships and other meaningful relationships with others, helping us cultivate a virtuous personal character, giving us a unique aesthetic experience, providing us with psychological benefits, and just plain helping us relax and enjoy ourselves. Video games are not just for those with no life; on the contrary, they can help contribute to a rich and meaningful life. Key Features - Introduces the philosophy of video games in a humorous and lively way with lots of engaging examples - Defends gaming through a virtue theoretic approach - Discusses contemporary psychology and neuroscience literature on gaming - Includes discussion of gamers, video games, and common experiences of gaming
