I managed to convince my university that games had enough artistic merit, so I could write a dissertation on them. I don't think it's too difficult to do from a literature perspective, since it combines, filmic, literary and artistic form, but concentrating on one, may be harder. Games like...

I really enjoyed Alice and I too hadn't played the first one. Maybe this like stemmed from a sheer boredom of the FPS genre, but I don't know. I found Duke Nukem Forever to be probably the worst game I've ever played.

Generalised Anxiety Disorder, POCD (Purely Obsessional Compulsive Disorder) and Mild Depression with minor Psychotic Tendencies, things like mild hallucinations and uncontrollable thoughts, coupled with hypochondriacal anxieties. Fun fun fun.

It's almost you're arguing with me, rather than say my University or the philosophical origin of theory. In fact I didn't even say I agreed, I simply said it was clever.# Faith in humanity is now fully restored...

Lately in English Literature we learned about 'Posthumanist' theory, stating that we are all cyborgs without any artificial implants or anything. Philip K Dick, amongst others, drew up the argument that anything that uses/creates something, that doesn't originate from themselves, to ensure...
