Review
"Karen Collins's Playing with Sound: A Theory of Interacting with Sound and Music in Video Games is a comprehensive and compelling look at players' use of sound in video games, which examines the topic from a variety of angles and within a range of different contexts. Collins delivers another fascinating book on game sound destined to be a classic in the area of game sound scholarship." -- Mark J. P. Wolf, Chair, Communications Department, Concordia University, Wisconsin
"With Playing with Sound, Karen Collins cements her status as the foremost expert on game sound and music. This richly detailed and well-argued text pushes forward the field of game studies to acknowledge the key role that sound plays in the experience of playing video games. Collins tackles the subject from the player's point of view, arguing that we don't merely listen to sound but interact with it to create believable worlds and inhabit memorable characters across a universe of videogames." -- Mia Consalvo, Canada Research Chair in Game Studies and Design, Concordia University
