| Abstract |
|
"Audio has been present in computer games from the original sinusoidal beeps in Pong to the Grand Theft Auto soundtracks recorded by world-famous musical artists. Far from being an overemphasis, the word “soundtrack” is highly appropriate to the role that audio in games has played up until now. It sits comfortably-and as an equal-alongside Computer Graphics, Artificial Intelligence, online multiplayer gaming and new interactive environments as one of the main driving forces in both technology development and the acceptance of gaming as a core social activity."
