Approaches to Videogame Discourse: Lexis, Interaction, Textuality
Video games are a unique form of discourse that has its own set of conventions and rules. These conventions and rules can be used to create powerful and engaging experiences for players. In this book, we explore the use of language in video games, from the text of menus and in-game dialogue to the nonverbal communication of characters and environments.

We begin by examining the lexis of video games. We identify the different types of words and phrases that are used in video games, and we explore how these words and phrases are used to create meaning. We then turn our attention to interaction in video games. We examine the different ways that players interact with video games, and we explore how these interactions can be used to create meaningful experiences.
Finally, we consider the textuality of video games. We examine the different ways that video games are structured and organized, and we explore how these structures and organizations can be used to create coherent and engaging experiences. Throughout the book, we draw on a range of examples from different video games, from classic titles to contemporary blockbusters.
