Resumo

This chapter reexamines the relationship between the representative capacities of violent video games and the military industrial entertainment complex. It proposes a study of the affective capacities of violent militarised online multiplayer games to expand the limited accounts of the dominance of the military discourse and better understand what is going one while gamers play.
