I've read claims about the influence of movies and tv-shows on cultural movements. Some philosophers discuss movies and tv-shows for their themes.

Will the future look to video games as well? It seems inevitable, even if most games might lack depth. There is a whole generation raised by video games...

Are pokefuggers a cultural movement? To answer your question, yes they will, they probably already do.

I should have specified. There are claims that movies at least, are a source of ideas and meaning. I've read a book on environmentalists and it was claimed that their views were partly shaped by Disney movies (yes) and Lord of the Rings. So when I say cultural movement, I do not really mean any fanbase or sorts, but rather more political movements.

And I wonder if some philosophers will look into video games. Philosopher John Gray does this with tv-series, and Slavoj Zizek uses movies to put forward his ideas. But I'm unsure whatever video games have enough depth.

I've mostly played real-time strategy games, and while they might somehow creep into my worldview, they do not really have the depth to make them worthy of discussion I think. But there seem to be some games with more depth.

I can't think of anyone who fits the conventional label of philosopher very well right now but there are plenty of people involved in things like cultural studies and communications that do work on video games. If the thread is up later today I might have a few names to suggest you.

Here check out Jane McGonigal. Here is a link to her dissertation: This Might Be a Game:
Ubiquitous Play and Performance at the Turn of the Twenty-First Century

More to come. Been a bit to busy really to try and keep many threads going and active, sorry about that man. Her other works seem to be equally interesting studies that relate to gaming.
