The article analyzes two recent video games, Super Paper Mario and Paper Wars: Cannon Fodder, in order to trace a possible history of how video game gained awareness of itself as a cultural medium. A history comparable to the much longer one of traditional artistic mediums. Both games feature an ironic, metalinguistic use of 2-D images within a fully three-dimensional space: a pastiche of formal elements from the past into advanced technology and gaming. Video game foregrounds its history, staging it in a way similar to that used by much postmodern painting. A degree of awareness which has always characterized such a complex medium, whose evolution has been modeled – with an acceleration typical of technological development – on that of painting. The relation between the two has alternatively been serious or ironic, yet always driven by the influence of a shared culture.
