Hey chat, anyone else feeling like this game contributes to collective memory?
A book chapter titled "Creating Game History: Intertextuality and the Formation of a Collective Memory of Games" by Regina Seiwald, explores how video games contribute to the formation of a collective memory and the history of gaming through intertextual references. It delves into the ways in which video games embed references to older games, whether through direct gameplay, visual style, or nostalgic elements, thereby preserving and emphasizing their legacy within gaming culture.
By incorporating older games into new ones, these intertextual links not only serve as a homage but also play a significant role in shaping how certain games are remembered and valued over time. The chapter highlights examples from various gaming franchises, such as Nintendo and Sega, illustrating how these intertextual connections contribute to the ongoing narrative of video game history.
This exploration is particularly relevant for understanding how cultural memory is constructed in the digital age and how video games, as a medium, engage with their own past to create a shared history among players, developers, and critics.

since when did obscure information become presented as creepy? its such a small thing to complain about but idc it pisses me off. nothing about the Mario Kart Wii iceberg needs to be scary, there is no need to put creepy music over it. I started watching a Down the Rabbit Hole video about EVE Online, EVE fucking Online, why does the narrator feel the need to talk about it like its a creepy pasta, its fucking video game.
