Abstract

. We propose a transdisciplinar approach in order to analyze images in video games, with the aim of establishing a solid theoretical foundation and exploring the feasibility of framing video games within a neurophenomenological context aligned with their historical phenomenology. We address the negligence in neuroscience regarding the phenomenological processes involved in the perception of images in video games and emphasize the underestimation of the attractive and consumable qualities of these images in past generations. We argue that the diversity in image qualities in video games over the decades cannot be solely attributed to technical evolution. Drawing on studies from Game Studies, we highlight the unique characteristics of the gaming experience with these images and contend that immediate interactivity should not be the sole focus of neuroscientific analysis. Inspired by the neurophenomenology of cinema by Vittorio Gallese and Michele Guerra we conclude that a comparative analysis of both cinema and video games from a neurophenomenological perspective enriches the understanding of images in video games and highlights their multimodal complexity, thereby unfolding new possibilities in this field.
