My name is Luis and I study IT and Information Studies at OU. I’ve always been interested in gaming and how it connects people, inspires creativity, and becomes part of our culture. This site collects some of the work I’ve done this semester, along with the gaming topics I personally care about.
I like exploring how certain games become part of our cultural history. Some titles stick with us for years, and I’m interested in why that happens and how players help keep their stories and memories alive.
I look at games that really changed things, whether it’s gameplay, storytelling, or the way people think about the medium. These are the titles that shaped the direction of gaming and left a lasting influence.
I’m interested in how fans help preserve older games by using mods, ROMs, emulators, and online archives. A lot of gaming history survives because communities care enough to save it and share it.
I enjoy seeing how games inspire creativity. Players make art, music, stories, and other forms of expression that show how games connect to people on a personal level.
I like reflecting on how gaming has become part of our shared digital life. Our experiences, memories, and interactions with games say a lot about how this culture has grown over time.
I will create small digital exhibits to show how games relate to culture and storytelling. It’s a way for me to combine visuals, ideas, and reflections in one place and share what I’ve learned.
