Description

Explore the complex role of video games within modern media networks with Intermedia Games: Video Games and Intermediality from Bloomsbury Academic. This academic work examines how video games sit at the center of convergence culture, acting as a bridge between various forms of media. Readers will learn how video games utilize cinematics, embedded books, and in-world television screens to create immersive experiences. The text also looks at how games allow players to navigate transmedia storyworlds and how they are frequently remade or themed in film, television, and literature. This book provides a deep look at the ways video games function as a central part of the intermedial landscape. This title is available through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme. You can access the content via www.bloomsburycollections.com to support your research or studies in computing, internet studies, and media theory.
