The video game industry has always been known as a male-dominated industry, with most video games being marketed towards males and many video game programmers being male. But in recent years, there has been a rise in the number of female gamers in the industry. Although there are a lot of women interested in video games, there are still a lot of problems regarding sexism and the video game industry. Sexism can be found in the video games that girls play as they grow up to women who enter the…

The main argument of All Work All Play directed by Patrick Creadon argues that Professional video games or Esports is a real sport that is growing rapidly. All Work All Play uses most of its points to establish their Ethos to the viewer. Pathos often follows this up and takes up most of the time in the film. Logos was spread out evenly in three points, the beginning, middle, and end. Logos is the least used of the three in this film. When logos is used, it is used to set up either a pathos or…

I have come here today to talk about the greatest person to have lived on this universe. His name was Dennio. Dennio had been a great friend since the start. We met on April 7th, 2022. Of course this was when we were both about 20 years old. Since then,he had been extremely creative person. He always talked about new kinds of video games. It sometimes confused me too think that a 22 year old would even think about video games. Its sad that I can’t talk to him anymore about, game designing,…

to go sit next to him in the back. He was an older boy, he was in Kindergarten, he was so cute and he gave me my first kiss.

I am not sure why but that man always seemed a little off and kind of creepy even…

Just like humans, video games provide the same effect as gaining experiences through living, but in a far advanced world. In addition these precious moments are ones that cannot or is difficult to replicate in real life. The chances of being the coach of the New England Patriots are one in a billion, but with the help of video games, anyone can coach an all-star team. A common misconception of video games is its…

Videogame’s bad reputation: Disdain for the medium I have seen too many news reports that propose that videogames are a vile, mortifying plague. Videogames are a rather new medium of art and entertainment, and like their predecessors, videogames are the new scapegoat. Certain lobbyists, like the famous Jack Thompson, have argued that videogames are corrupting the youth of America. This, I will argue, is a skewed perception on the medium as a whole, and it is the issue of this paper. I implore…

The biggest stereotypes involve ones against women, racial and cultural minorities, and others with disabilities. Video games are something that has become more common within our society and videogames are allowing gamers to become more socially sustainable. I learned on the first day of class that…

For as long as I can remember I have always loved video games and wanted to be a part of their creation. They have helped me get through some tough areas of my life and I surely would like to contribute to the happiness that they spread among people. As I scanned across the many jobs available in the video game industry, I specifically found one job description that seemed to capture my skillset perfectly. Today I will be investigating the job of ‘Video Game Producer’, researching the daily…

Background of the Study 1000-1500 One of the fastest growing businesses is video game industry with sales of at least $6 billion in the year 2000 (Leonard, 2003, 2006). The aim of video game is to entertain the player by its narrative, mission, and so forth, but video game today can be an educational way in introducing interactive curricula, as a brand new method in teaching, and an educational simulation (ESA, 2011; Everett & Waitkins, 2008). Nevertheless, video game not only gives those…
