поддержка

The Art of Videogames explores how philosophy of the arts
theories developed to address traditional art works can also be
applied to videogames.
* Presents a unique philosophical approach to the art of
videogaming, situating videogames in the framework of analytic
philosophy of the arts
* Explores how philosophical theories developed to address
traditional art works can also be applied to videogames
* Written for a broad audience of both philosophers and videogame
enthusiasts by a philosopher who is also an avid gamer
* Discusses the relationship between games and earlier artistic
and entertainment media, how videogames allow for interactive
fiction, the role of game narrative, and the moral status of
violent events depicted in videogame worlds
* Argues that videogames do indeed qualify as a new and exciting
form of representational art
