2659:, I don't see any reason to treat this thesis (or, in the US parlance, dissertation) any different from the US/UK ones. Neither are "peer-reviewed" in the way we mean "peer-reviewed" when we talk about academic publications in journals or with presses, and "published" for a thesis/dissertation--well, a dissertation can be published by an academic press, but I don't see any evidence that this one was. In addition, but this is by the by, in Germany and the Netherlands, for instance, dissertations are often published as a book--but not by the same presses and in the same way as academic books are published. So sure, we can accept something from something if there is a good reason to do so, but "it's peer-reviewed and published" is not such a reason, because it's not peer-reviewed and published in the way that an article, edited collection, or monograph is. I think I am really confirming what you said earlier, and I think it is important to make that point here. BTW I have no stake in this article or its content. Oh, 1480:, that statement related to text adventure games does not say they are not video games, but may be considered computer games since they can be played without a monitor. But they can still be video games. The problem that we have had in the past is that being too specific on the line between computer and video games led to edit wars over how to classify games, and project wise, we have taken the stance that all computer games belong in what people recognize as "video games" including games that lack a monitor. As PresN points out, we can be clear CCA was intended as a teletype game, but since has been ported to monitor-based systems. -- 1182: 2520:
review. In Australia, there are supervisors instead of a dissertation committee, and the thesis is evaluated by external examiners who are experts in the field. This is quite similar to the peer review process employed by academic journals and university presses. Even if this process were still not technically considered peer review, I feel there is no reason to exclude a PhD thesis on these grounds, which has undoubtedly undergone a more rigorous review process than many journalistic and popular history sources frequently cited on Knowledge (XXG).
154: 2550:
perfunctory background material and contains several inaccuracies not limited to those already described above, which I doubt the supervisors or examiners would have been equipped to identify seeing as computer game history was likely not the field of anyone involved. I have no doubt the thesis is well executed in relation to its actual academic field, but it is not a high-quality source of information on Colossal Cave Adventure. Sources exist for this info that are far more on point.
2364:. This did two things: 1) said it was "the eponymous" adventure game, which duplicates later in that paragraph where it says "for which it was also the ]." and 2) said it was the "first" adventure game. The same later sentence calls it "the first well-known example of interactive fiction", and for good reason- it wasn't the first. The lede summarizes the body of the article, and this bit is summarizing the end of the first paragraph in "Legacy": 21: 2606:? I am guessing not or you would have seen this "This means that we publish only the analysis, views, and opinions of reliable authors, and not those of Wikipedians who have read and interpreted primary source material for themselves." I'm not claiming my thesis is perfect, but it has been peer reviewed and published and it is not up to you to judge it it's accuracy. This kind of behaviour is exactly why academics deride Knowledge (XXG). 1315: 565: 145: 54: 1260: 1242: 2278:
version. I actually found this Knowledge (XXG) page while searching for "a maze of twisty passages, all alike", which does tend to stick in ones memory. (I don't remember the word "little" in that phrase.) I suspect that the file was just renamed or something. The interaction on the screen in the photo in this article looks exactly like what I remember. Anyway, "RUN DUNGEO" often started an enjoyable lunch break.

than the definitions that essentially limited it to arcade and console games. That said, CCA is obviously a text game and was designed and originally played on teletypes, and I wanted to make that clear; unfortunately so far I haven't found a good source that calls that out. For some 70s games sources make a point of it (e.g.

I apologize for assuming that Australian theses are not peer-reviewed; I'm connected to the academic system here in America so I was thinking of that system.

Those are fair points. But you didn't answer my question. Is there a reason I can't cite a source I wrote? It is a published, peer reviewed, secondary source. I have looked all though the documentation about reliable sources and can find nothing that says one can't cite a work just because one is the

For the original Fortran, and in Knuth's CWEB version, the various treasure points, staying alive, reaching the end-game, exploring the cave thoroughly, etc. only came to 349 points. The special single bonus point was obtained by moving the magazine 'Spelunker Today' from the Anteroom to Witts End.

I believe the confusion here is that in Australia, PhD theses are reviewed differently than dissertations are reviewed in the United States. In the U.S., dissertations are reviewed by a committee consisting of faculty members of the university the student is attending, which is not considered a peer

It's been decades since I last played ADVENT - certainly 20th century - and I only know this because I read the source, but the version I saw (still in FORTRAN) had a trick that gained you an extra point. It may have had something to do with going back to the bear. Can anyone confirm it was in their

The line between "video game" and "computer game" is extre.ely vague to the point that trying to explitly define it would be a problem...this is either because "video game" had broadly included nonvideo computer games, or where predominately in Europe "computer games" included video games. The terms
1585:
Yeah, additionally while in prior decades there was a distinction made between "computer" games and "video" games, in modern parlance they're equivalent. The definition of "video game" to be a game that involves real-time updating graphics on a monitor isn't one that's really used any more, any more
2437:
Also, what do you intend to cite with it? It doesn't seem to add any new information, so it would be just a secondary cite to something already covered, which is ok. Page 22 has that it was "the precursor for the entire genre of role playing adventure games", so I guess it could be a secondary cite

I played it in maybe 1980, 1981, or 1979, on an Apple machine, possibly Apple II. But I didn't recall it being called "Microsoft" anything, but possibly with the word "Cave" in it; maybe with the word "Adventure" in it. I remember it beginning with something like "You are standing outside a cave."

ever played the Woods version on a monitor between 1977 and 1995, when he stopped updating the Fortran code? Can you explain what exactly changed in the game when the same code was played on a monitor vs a teleprinter that made it into a "video game" instead of a "computer game", as if video games

But let's look at what you are saying here Indrian. You are saying that a published PhD thesis about video games, with a chapter devoted to the history of video games, which you acknowledge has been through a process of peer review by experts, should not be cited because you think it is in error,

ADVENT arrived at a time when there were essentially no video monitors. There were no PCs. Silicon Graphics, Jupiter, and Tektronix terminals hadn't been invented. I first played ADVENT on a machine with a 20x8-character gas-discharge display, and a console printer (Supervisory Printed Output, or

In the future, as a gentle suggestion, if you're adding a source to an article, particularly one you wrote yourself, consider adding it to a bit that's unsourced (note that the lede is the equivalent of the abstract of a paper, and does not generally have references), or else add new information

It is a fair point you made about the eponymous nature of the game being mentioned in the last sentence of the lead. I somehow failed to notice that. Go me. I am not however aware of any reason I cannot use the source to which you objected. It is a published, peer reviewed academic source which

I worked in the Microprocessor Development Products division at Tektronix in the early 1980s and we played this game on our TNIX-based systems. (TNIX was Tektronix' proprietary version of UNIX.) It was called "dungeo" on our systems, but was clearly either the exact same game or an embellished

The link says "1987 Windows port of the PDP-11 version of Colossal Cave Adventure for DOSBox". Many people will assume that this means DOSBox will need to be installed before the game itself is installed. Actually this .exe installs and sets up DOSBox and the game automatically (similar to a

That said, a thesis still needs to be evaluated like any other source. In this case, it appears the subject matter is ethnography and ontology as they relate to interactions in Second Life rather than a study of computer game history in general or Colossal Cave in particular. The history is

In any case, since what you had was duplicative and slightly wrong, and cited to 1) and entire book with no page numbers, and 2) a phd thesis (your own), I reverted it. In the end, we don't add sources just to say we have them, we add them to back up information that needs it, and

then. So your original remark calling into question my adding a citation from my PhD was completely unecessary and rude. Not presuming good intent at all. In fact it calls to mind "Insulting or disparaging an editor is a personal attack regardless of the manner in which it is

Just because you may have played it on a teletype printer, doesn't mean it wasn't also playable on video screens. More importantly, you went through every use of "video game" and replaced that with "computer game" which broke several links and context

As Adventure is not the thrust of the thesis, including it does raise the specter of self promotion. We must assume good faith, of course, but even if the inclusion was innocent, it still casts an unnecssary shadow over the article.
