This collection provides students and researchers with the resources to study a wide range of video games and related interactive media objects.  It covers games from the late 1970's to the present. It includes mainstream titles, educational games and unique and independent games in handheld, console, and PC format..                        
           
The collection also supports students and scholars who want to create their arguments by building a game from scratch or modifying a commercial off the shelf game by providing both the tools and some technical support.
