商品簡介
In seven chapters, this book offers a comprehensive and accessible characterisation of the first-person shooter videogame genre. After providing an overview of the history of the first-person shooter videogame genre, Alberta Oya comments on the various defining peculiarities of the first-person shooter videogame genre, namely the first-person perspective, the shooting gaming mechanics, the heroic in-game narrative or background story, and multiplayer gaming. Oya explores these features and uses them to argue that educators can use first-person shooter videogames to encourage their students to reflect on historical and philosophical issues.
