- We need to assign each of you a specific video game to research. Show me your list of 3 games.
You want to consider the game on many levels. Including but not limited to the following:
* Game Play
* Game Stlye
* Game Aestetic
* Fun factor
* Plot Storyline
* Technology/Systems the game appeared on
* Programmers / Game Company(s)
* Year the game was created and context in which it was created (ie. who was president, what major world events were taking place, what was the style/fashion of the time, popular movies, ect..)
* Context of an average individual within society while playing the game (see above)
* Places the game or it's icons appear in society outside of game culture (culture recycling)
