Back in the beginning of the Pretentious Days of Games Journalism* (i.e. when New Games Journalism became a thing), there was some discussion about postmodernism in games. One person conjectured that videogames were an inherently postmodern medium. At the time I thought it was a cute thing to say, but obviously false, at least for my understood definition of "postmodern."
Now I'm not so sure.
Do watch the movie on the site. Dante slams a giant cross into a zombie-demon-creature's skull.
*Disclaimer: I love Pretentious Games Journalism, and have participated in its creation.

I usually find stuff like that hilarious, but that was so straight-faced in its delivery that I'm kind of shaken. I mean, uh, there's no way that's serious, right? How could it possibly be serious?
I'm pretty sure it's completely serious.
From the makers of Dead Space!
