Gamers, I’m going to do something videogames do to us quite a bit: ask you a question, to find out once and for all, is videogame one word or two?
Q: What is a videogame?
A: An entertainment activity in which players operate a simple device to complete tasks digitally.
B: A new entertainment medium rivaling the cultural significance and revenue of film, TV, art and literature, but which exclusively relies on the resilience, reflexes and mental functioning of the participant, to interact with both AI and other humans to achieve their individual, unique goals.
C: A miserable little pile of secrets.
They’re all “true”. But If you answered B, for you, this question is worth exploring. (If you answered C, I’m glad you love CastleVania as much as I do. Have at you!!)
Ironically, it’s a videogame series that leads me ask this question: what is the difference between “videogame” and “video game”, and more importantly why does it matter?
I’ve been writing “videogame” since I was a little kid who started playing Atari 2600 and Commodore 64 at 3 years old, in 1985. I think it was because of how I say it. I got so giddy over gaming that I can’t help excitedly turning the word into a three-syllable mushjob. “VIDYOGAMES!”
It also just made sense to me. I’d see “videocassette” written out and lots of “video-” words are compound. With videogames being this new thing it just made sense to have its own term.
Once I began the head copy editor on the daily Ohio State student newspaper, The Lantern, though, style guides and grammar became not just hunches and afterthoughts but real issues with real meaning to a huge publication and its audience.

No idea if The Lantern still follows it, but I implemented “videogame” as news editor/head copy editor during my stint there
Unless you’re a special kind of obsessor over the English language, I’m sure you can care less if the New York Times writes “‘60s”, “1960s” or “1960’s,” but it’s actually pretty sweet to learn how small differences in grammar, spelling and punctuation can fundamentally change the meaning or philosophy of a sentence — or a word.
So I made “videogame” one word for Lantern style, even though the Associated Press Stylebook (yes, that’s one word) still listed it as two. Which I understood the AP’s stance (or non-stance), they don’t like change. (“Web site” finally became “website” officially during my tenure — it was 2004 and they finally succumbed to popular lexicon.)

Video Gaming! Here in Las Vegas I got all excited till I realized they meant “video games” — slot machines! Videogaming is my hobby … video gaming is not
I figured the Internet and mainstream media would figure “videogames” out too, just like we stopped writing “web site” and putting technology like “modem” in quotes in consumer manuals.

Video Games Live videogames Games Done Legit — Dammit.

But Google hasn’t. Neither have most games “journalists” for that matter despite that there actually is a “Videogame Style Guide” written by some of gaming history’s most respected and seasoned editors.
(By the way, look for an upcoming feature on why games “journalism” by its own definition is an oxymoron.)
Just Check out this forward written by one of the pioneers in the world of games writing:
“ … it’s not just Little Billy Pokégamer who’s reading about videogames. The average age of my magazine’s readers is over 21 years old. Heck, the average age of gamers in the U.S. is over 29 years old.
“And for videogame writing to be taken seriously by adults, it has to be written for adults.
“That doesn’t just mean correct grammar and spelling (though those are musts, obviously). It also means a level of consistency that shows writers aren’t just pulling industry terms out of their asses (or worse, Wikipedia).”
— Dan “Shoe” Hsu, Editor-in-Chief, EGM: Electronic Gaming Monthly

Video Games Videogames One Word Or Two Games Done Legit Journalism

So what does this have to do with whether videogames is one word or two? The key phrase in that sentence is videogames writing to be taken seriously.
OK, so note that copyeditor is one word. Why is that? It’s a dude who edits copy, right?
To put that in context, let’s examine the argument for keeping videogame as one word. I’ve heard people say:

“It looks dumb as one” (which I argue the opposite, especially now in 2015).
“It’s always been like that” (which is never a solid argument, nor is it true)
“It’s not needing a compound word, unlike videotape and videocassette. Just like board game is two words.”

Number three is at least a valid talking point. Board game IS two words. They argue “videocassette” is one word (how absurd does THAT look compared to “videogame”?) because the cassette is not literally “video”. The magnetic tape contains tape, but the object itself, on its surface, features no video image. You need a cassette deck and a television (one word) to see anything, right?
So if the tape itself could project video on your wall, it would stay two words. I guess. (Hey, I didn’t author this line of thinking, I just troll message boards).
So back to: Is videogame one word? They say it’s a game played out in video, just like Monopoly or Hi-Ho Cherry-o or Settles of Catan is a game, played out on a board.
Well, let’s go back to the first question I asked you. If you’re reading this far (gamers are not known as readers, which is another myth — think of how much text we read even in a 16-bit RPG) you probably answered “B”.

Centipede videogame video game Games Done Legit retrogaming — It’s Centipede video slots: video games or videogame?

It’s a new entertainment medium, completely separate from anything that has even been invented in human history.
And it’s a disservice to them to compare to call them “video games” now.

Final Fantasy VII Video game videogame Cloud Aeris dies Games Done Legit — Is this a “video game”, to be in the same literal use of the word as pixels moving around on a screen? To share the same word as a medium with video slot machines and Pong?

If someone says they like board games, do you first think of chess? I would guess no. That’s because while it shares the fundamental end goal of Chutes and Ladders (to win), the complexity, strategy, and timelessness of chess supercedes its base nature of literally being a game played on a board.
Chess is still a board game, by definition, for the strict interpretists out there. But for the literalist who argues for “video game”, what is chess when it’s played on a PC? Now it’s a “video game” instead? A video board game? A video-board game? (See my note on compound modifiers if you don’t know what that hyphen means.) If it’s still just a board game, that means “chess” and “board games” can supercede the original, literal definition of its classification..
Even with the game of chess’s eternal nature fixed (the object is to beat the other player) its nature as a “board game” can change.
Thanks to the times and technology, the definition of videogame has changed.
Pong is a video game.
Metal Gear Solid, EarthBound, Shadow of the Colossus, Seaman, Wonder Project J2, World of Warcraft, Destiny, Mario Paint, Elder Scrolls, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto V: these are videogames. Calling them video games is like calling Casablanca a TV show because it’s being viewed on your television.
The object of a videogame is NOT just to win. Much of the time, there is no one object anymore. The object is to experience — to play a videogame that way you want to, as a unique entertainment medium. It’s just as much on you, the player, as the game developer.

Metal Gear Solid Games Done Legit Videogames Are Art — This is a “videogame”, not a “video game”.

I cannot reduce Metal Gear Solid 1, 2 & 3, with deep meta themes that question human nature, genetics, and reality, to a “video game”. Some flashing lights and simple tasks were not what inspire me to this day to think about lessons and questions imparted through the developers to me, through this interactive medium. The point of Metal Gear wasn’t to win, it’s to take away something important from your experience as a gamer, that’s just for you.

When I beat “EarthBound” I’m not happy because I won the game. I’m happy because I was entertained by more than pushing buttons in sequence. I’m happy the game actually acknowledges me, the player, and my special role in guiding Ness, and helped me feel better about my real life, art and friendship.
When I play ping pong, I’m just happy because I won.
I play Dance Dance Revolution competively (of all things), as well as fighting games. Ironically if anything is a “video game” still, it might be these. As complex as they are to achieve in, and as many people love them, you are always just trying to beat the CPU or the other guy: hence, a simple “video game”.

DDR Ghaleon AAA Competitive Games Done Legit Chris Hatala Dance Dance Revolution — DDR is a “video game” in the most literal sense.

So for the literalists, I agree with you on that. But many activities, like sports, become one word (basketball, football) even though those don’t NEED to be one word like videocassette allegedly did by the literalist definition (“It’s a ball that goes in a basket; it’s a ball that gets kicked around”). But of course they are now.
Compound words don’t always form out of grammatical necessity. They happen because they become accepted, commonplace, and unique, new parts of popular culture. Writing “web site” or “foot ball” looks like you’ve been living in a cave for decades and never heard of them before.
#socialmedia and #videogames
Furthermore, not writing videogames as one word makes even less sense in the hashtag (note that hashtag is one word as well, when literally it could be two) age. I’m not saying everything needs to become one word (I’m not German), but certain terms clearly are meant to be, because we as a people are naturally doing it.
And in fact I hope “socialmedia” joins it soon too. Just like videogames, social media is greater than the sum of both separate words.
When you say social media, you know exactly what I mean. It’s not just media expressed socially (which by definition could mean I hand you a newspaper article) at all, nor is it something even practiced by just the media or something. We all are social media. The term is greater than the sum of its parts, with a unique meaning.
Just like videogames.
Grammar Note:
Also, a quick note for the grammarful: anytime “video game” is used as a compound modifier, it needs to be hyphenated or it’s fundamentally changing the meaning of what you’re trying to say.
“Video game journalist” is a game journalist who is shown on or exclusively uses video, like Max Headroom if he talked about Final Fantasy or something. “Video-game journalist” would be a journalist of video games. A “high-school student” is a student in high school. A “high school student” is a school student who is high, either because of his friends or illegal substances.
Games are greater
Videogames are much greater than the sum of its word parts, now in 2015 more than ever. And as technology futher advances, they will become even less about the game and more about the video — the experience and social power they bring to millions around the world.
Either way, “videogames” has it covered.
TLDR;
Video Games are games played through on a video-enabled device.
Videogames are a hobby, a culture, and the most interactive and social entetainment pastime in history.
“Games Done Legit” is GDL Entertainment, and that starts with how we represent videogames!
What do you think? As an appreciator of the hobby, I would love for you to hear your thoughts on “videogame” and “video game”!

I usually type it out as two words. It just seems proper to me, I’m not sure why.

Oddly enough, I consider video game to be separated, but website to be one word.

I spell it out as two seperate words. It’s a habit and it doesn’t look right as just one word.

Two seperate words. It’s for the sake of writing it down, mainly. My teachers are picky on the English of my papers.

Yes, but Sports is fine without «game», it means the same thing. Video without «game» is a completely different thing; therefore «video game (videogame)» is a noun that requires it to be a single entity else it loses all meaning. Just something I’ve been thinking about.

I have a new game on my iPod that I am eager to share with you. The game is called “Tiger Woods Golf Tour” and it is really simple. It is designed to be fun, silly, and relaxing at the same time. There are different levels to the game. Each level is made up of a single word, and the word is the key to the level. You need to be able to read the word correctly in order to enter the next level.

Tiger Woods Golf Tour is not a game for the faint of heart. Its design is intended for players who have a high level of self-awareness. This doesn’t mean that you can’t beat levels if you beat your high score and take enough vacation time in between. But the game is designed to be a challenge, not a game of pure enjoyment.

Tiger Woods Golf Tour is not a game for the faint of heart. Its design is intended for players who have a high level of self-awareness. This doesnt mean that you cant beat levels if you beat your high score and take enough vacation time in between. But the game is designed to be a challenge, not a game of pure enjoyment.

This is an important distinction that needs to be made. Tiger Woods Golf Tour is designed by a man whose name is meant to be synonymous with self-awareness. Not only does Tiger Woods Golf Tour have high-level self-awareness, it is also designed to be a challenge. It is designed to test your skills, to test your mind, and to test your will to overcome all of the challenges that you face on a daily basis.

I think the name “Tiger Woods Golf Tour” is a great name and also a great name for a game. But I don’t think it is very appropriate for a game. I think we need to do better than that.

One thing that I find interesting with Tiger Woods Golf Tour is the way in which the game is designed. It is not about shooting a golf ball. It is not about playing a golf game. The game is about playing a golf game. There is no golf game. It is just a game. There is no golf game. It is a game designed to put all of the player’s time into the game. The goal is to kill the golf ball.

This is a bit of an overstatement, but it does bring up the question of what makes a game a good game. For us, we look at it in two different ways. When we first come into the game, we are not looking at the game, we are looking at our game. Once we get to play the game, we are looking at the game and the game. At some point we will even be looking at the game through the game.

The game is designed to be addictive, but it is not designed to be the best game. It is designed to be a game that you play to get a specific number of hits. If you put the effort in, you will get a good time out.

It is hard to say how long a game will become addictive, but it has been known to become addictive after just about any number of hours. If you do your best to play the game the best you can, you will get a good time out. And if you start playing the game just for the fun of it, well then you will probably find it so addictive that you will want to play the game for the rest of your life.

The idea of playing games for the pure enjoyment of it is a fun one. If you play games just for the pleasure of it, you will probably never stop. But if you start playing games for the pure enjoyment of it then you will have to change the game.

How is videogame spelled?
Is a compound noun video games?
In a nutshell, what are video games?
What are some phrases for video games?

During a group email exchange today, a colleague asked for clarification on the style of videogames/video games. While it was not my place to provide an answer, I immediately thought that surely video games, as two words, was correct.Videogames, as one word seems incorrect to me, but I thought it was worth a look online as well.(Incidentally, Chrome is subtly implying that it’s two words by squiggly-lining the one-word version in this paragraph.)

Dictionaries

I started with a few online dictionaries: Merriam-Webster, OxfordDictionaries.com, Collins Dictionary, Cambridge Dictionary, and the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English (I stopped there) all say it’s written as two words: video game.video game.

Corpus

Looking at COCA again, I discovered that video game (1339) was far more popular than video game (189).

And, based on the example sentences provided by COCA, it appears that a large proportion of the uses of videogame are as noun adjuncts modifying other nouns such as controller, maker, franchise, players, sales, developers,nbsp;etc. The use of video game also appears to be used attributively, though not nearly as frequently as videogame.

Gaming sites

Then I discovered a couple of other gaming websites, which Wired.com describes as «the great ‘videogame’ versus ‘video game’ debate.»The site tells the story of Bill Kunkel, known as one of the first video game journalists, who began using the term «videogame» as a single word in the late 1970s, and it stuck for a while.However, when one of his magazine partners noticed that people were searching for «video games» on Google more frequently, and that the two-word search term was driving more traffic to their site, they decided to switch to using video game.

Then I came across this on engadget, written by Kyle Orland 8 years ago, which describes itself as «an effort to set down some consistent answers for those niggling copy editing questions that constantly come up when writing about games,» including whether to write video game or videogame.By the way, the book suggests one word; this post, also on engadget, describes the results of a 2005 poll in which most people reported the preferred two words.

So it appears to me that most people prefer the word «video game,» but video game journalists prefer «videogame.»

On Art and Violence

Now that the semester is winding down, I’ve got a little more time to blog (and write my last couple dissertation chapters, revise them all, and write the intro and conclusion chapters…). A couple of things have happened (or are about to happen) that have the gaming world buzzing: Roger Ebert wrote about videogames again, and the Supreme Court is hearing the case of California’s law prohibiting the sale of videogames to minors.

Regarding Ebert, he concludes by asking, «Why are gamers so intensely concerned, anyway, that games be defined as art?» which echoes my own call for all of us to stop caring about «art.» Tons and tons of people have tried to convince him he’s wrong — so many, in fact, that I don’t even want to bother hunting down links to some of the stories that do it.

However, it is very concerning that he appears to believe that he can judge games by looking at screenshots; would he write a review of a film based on the text on the back of the dvd box? To believe that he can judge games in that manner is quite ignorant.

Unfortunately, this is just the tip of the iceberg because look at the picture at the top of his post, which I have no idea if he chose or not.I’d say he didn’t, but he did choose the rest of the pictures in the post, so perhaps he did; regardless, the picture didn’t appear by itself.Someone chose that picture, and what is in it? A child.So someone whether it was Ebert of just some random web guy, wanted to pick a picture of a gamer and they picked a kid — once again perpetuating the stereotype that games are for kids and in this instance also seemingly indicating that games are in and of themselves childish. WowThat’s pretty sad.

Now, onto the Supreme Court…

I’m fairly confident that the Supreme Court will rule that this law is unconstitutional, not only because lower courts have consistently ruled that laws regulating videogame sales are unconstitutional, but also because the Supreme Court recently ruled that a law prohibiting animal cruelty videos is unconstitutional.

Today’s Diane Rehm Show featured Leland Yee, the California politician behind the bill, Craig Anderson, the guy who has never met a form of media that didn’t cause aggression, and a couple other people I don’t remember. Now, I’ve previously criticized Anderson’s vague use of the term «aggression,» so I was pleasantly surprised that Diane Rehm’s first question to Anderson was «what is the definition of aggression?»I think that it really key because in that statement Anderson (who also in this CNN video says that videogame-caused “aggression” isn’t really any worse than film or television-causes “aggression” ) says that videogames don’t really make kids violent.

If the most well-known person who believes videogames cause aggression does not believe they cause violence, it makes the case that they are so bad that we need laws prohibiting their sale much more difficult to prove.

Personally, I am looking forward to the Supreme Court finally repealing such laws.

…along with Jack Thompson getting involved and saying some crazy things…

Movies can be scary too…

Allow me to go on a non-videogame rant here… It is still about moral panics surrounding children and media, so it could have easily been about videogames instead of movies.

I heard a story on the local NPR station last night about someone threatening to sue Redbox because they sell «R-rated» movies, so I looked it up and discovered that it was picked up by a few local news outlets, including the Indianapolis Fox Affiliate and the Louisville ABC Affiliate.According to reports, Vanderburgh County Prosecutor Stan Levco is stirring up trouble.

Of course, neither of the two stories linked above, nor any of the other stories I saw, seemed to mention two minor details: First, the MPAA rating system «is a voluntary system,» and the ratings are not legally enforced; the only possible grounds for a lawsuit would be under obscenity or pornography laws.Levco almost certainly knows this, so why is he making such a fuss? This brings us to the second missing detail: Levco is running for re-election.

So this is just a ploy to get Levco into the news so he can say he’s «fighting for families» and concerned about «family values» without having to do anything. When I first heard about this story, I wondered if he was up for re-election because that’s the only time public officials try to start legal proceedings related to media.I suppose Levco couldn’t come up with any easy videogame targets.

Heaven forbid that any of the media outlets that covered this story spent two minutes wondering why Levco was doing this or anything… That’s some good reporting there…

When you say his name, he appears…
