Sommario/riassunto |
|
<P>From <I>Pong</I> to <I>Madden NFL</I> to <I>Wii Fit</I>, <B><I>Sports Videogames</B></I> argues for the multiple ways that sports videogames-alongside televised and physical sports-impact one another, and how players and viewers make sense of these multiple forms of play and information in their daily lives. Through case studies, ethnographic explorations, interviews and surveys, and by analyzing games, players, and the sports media industry, contributors from a wide variety of disciplines demonstrate the depth and complexity of games that were once considered simply sports simulations.
