This research discusses the unique characteristics of Japanese video game from the cultural viewpoint of Japan's traditional play. It starts with the possibility that Japanese video game can share the characteristics of traditional Japanese play. Accordingly, this research first considers the connection between play and video game for a theoretical background, by comparing their theoretical definitions and characteristics. Particularly, it shows the research direction from the viewpoint of Ludology that approaches video game from the aspect of play. Second, the characteristics of traditional Japanese play are examined in connection with Japan's inherent animism culture. Based on such characteristics, the common characteristics and backgrounds of Japanese video game and traditional Japanese play are discussed from the 'spatial' aspect of game, from the 'identity' aspect of game characters, and from the 'motive' behind playing game.

In this paper, I examines the spatial representation of the change in the environment of the digital platform, and play the game with a focus on the spatial characteristics of a digital game. First, what is the Spatial characteristic of digital games? This section applies to a digital game "theory of Lefebvre", and the spatial representation of the practice space, divided into representational space were explored. Second, how to express dealing Is there space in the genre of adventure games? The spatial characteristics of the game medium through the Spatial characteristic of the adventure game genre that is most striking examples was analyzed whether the expression in any way. Consequently, the spatial characteristics of the digital game studies of the game as well as think a very large role in the development direction. In addition, this case analysis of the expression is the basis of this digital game that is utilized in many areas, and I am sure many possibilities to find a positive role in the game.

Purpose Research purpose is extraction of the factors affecting game flow and satisfaction in mobile game. Design/methodology/approach In mobile game, the factors affecting game flow were classified into three parts: mobile game platform characteristics, user cognition characteristics, and user individual characteristics through previous studies for existing online game and mobile game. In the research we extracted the factors as follows: the connectivity, usability, network speed, pleasure, service quality, relatedness, proficiency, self-fulfillment, early adopter tendency, and competitive spirit. Using the factors, we established research model and tested hypotheses empirically. This survey was conducted five months targeting from teenagers to fifties with mobile game experience. The questionnaire items were reconstructed according to the questionnaires of the present study or those newly developed by the game experts and total 56 items in the literature of Internet game, smartphone game, and mobile game based on the existing literature study respectively. Findings According to the analysis result, this study showed that ease of use, enjoyment, self - fulfillment and competitive spirit had a significant influence on user flow and also that service quality, proficiency and competitive spirit had a significant influence on user satisfaction in mobile games.

본 논문은 게임 산업의 시작을 열었던 아케이드 게임의 유형과 특징에 대한 것이다. 아케이드 게임기는 크게 '기계식 게임기', '전기 기계식 게임기', '비디오 아케이드 게임기'로 진화해왔다. 이러한 진화과정에서 아케이드 게임은 다른 게임 플랫폼과는 차별화되는 자신만의 특징을 갖게 된다. 그 특징은 '공간성', '시간성', '게임성의 원형', '단순한 인터페이스', '공연성'이다. 최근 아케이드 게임의 침체는 이러한 아케이드 게임만의 특징들이 다른 게임으로 전이되면서 차별성이 퇴색되었기 때문이다. 그 특징을 다시 발굴하여 강화시킨다면 다시 게이머들를 사로잡을 수 있는 아케이드 게임을 만들 수 있을 것이다.

The pervasive game environments have activated explosive growth of the Internet over recent decades. Thus, understanding Internet traffic characteristics and precise classification have become important issues in network management, resource provisioning, and game application development. Naturally, much attention has been given to analyzing and modeling game traffic. Little research, however, has been undertaken on the classification of game traffic. In this paper, we perform an interpretive traffic analysis of popular game applications at the transport layer and propose a new classification method based on a simple decision tree, called an alternative decision tree (ADT), which utilizes the statistical traffic characteristics of game applications. Experimental results show that ADT precisely classifies game traffic from other application traffic types with limited traffic features and a small number of packets, while maintaining low complexity by utilizing a simple decision tree.

The objective of this study is to extract affecting factors on game satisfaction of a mobile game through the two mediated variables, self-fulfillment and flow. To apply mobile environment changed into the research model of a mobile game, we classify independent factors into three types such as system characteristics, cognitive characteristics, and individual characteristics. The previous studies for using mobile game have been based on intrinsic motivation, such as flow, as a mediated factor. However, the flow variable has some limitations in explaining user satisfaction aspects of mobile game, and the self-fulfillment variable is popularly used as an important mediated factor in the field of sports science. Because users of mobile game often attain their goals as sports event, we utilize self-fulfillment as well as flow as mediated variables. We developed a research model that includes independent factors, mediated variables of self-fulfillment and flow, and a dependent variable of game satisfaction. The data were collected from 438 users of mobile game and were used for analysis. Based on the survey results, we found the followings: (1) Immediate connectivity, enjoyment, relationship, early adopter tendency, and competitiveness affect self-fulfillment, and self-fulfillment affects the flow. (2) Enjoyment and competitiveness affect self-fulfillment, flow, and game satisfaction simultaneously.

As the CEO`s of game companies should be ready for the rapid change of technical environment of game industry, highly skilled employees and the social capital become very important factors in doing game business. 2013 Korea Game White Paper shows that many game companies prefer employees with job experience. The social capital and network help game companies get industrial information easily. This study empirically examines the relationship among CEO`s related business experience, corporate performance and social capital based on 134 Korean game companies. CEO`s characteristics are measured by using demographic characteristics including age, amount of education, and prior job experience and psychological characteristics, but this study focuses on related business experience. The results of this study show some significant relationship between the related business experience of CEO and nonfinancial performance of the firm. Secondly, this study verifies the moderating effect of the social capital between the related business experience of CEO and non-financial performance of the firm. The results of the moderating effect of the social capital show that social capital increases the non-financial performance.

미디어 영상, 예술 분야에서의 표현 특징들 중 초현실주의의 표현 기법을 이용한 많은 작품이 출시되고 있으며 이에 대한 연구가 시작 진행되고 있다. 그러나 아직 게임 캐릭터의 표현 특징 중 초현실주의의 표현 특징에 관한 연구는 거의 전무한 상태이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 초현실주의에서의 표현 기법을 중심으로 판타지 게임 캐릭터의 표현 특징을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 초현실주의에서는 신체의 일부와 동물 또는 다른 사물을 꼴라쥬 하는 형태와 변형, 그리고 왜곡을 이용하여 현실에 존재하지 않는 이미지들을 표현하였는데 이러한 방법들은 판타지를 기반으로 한 온라인 게임 캐릭터에서도 유사하게 사용되었다. 본 논문은 미학적 맥락 속에서 판타지 게임 캐릭터들의 특징을 분석하여 현 시대 문화적 배경 속에 게이머들의 심리를 이해하여 보다 호감 있고 창조적인 게임 캐릭터 제작에 도움을 주며, 예술 기법 활용의 가능성을 증가시켜 창의적인 게임 그래픽 제작의 가능성을 여는데 의미가 있다.
