Control is set, game is installed; now let us get ready to play “The Prince of Persia. Taking place in India, the Prince of Persia is a man that is very dominant and has great authority over his territory, as he makes his way to Azad. He honor his father dearly, and wants to show his father how great power he has to defeat the enemies.
We as individuals can clearly see how culture of power plays a role in this video game. Therefore, he is defeating male enemies so he can arrive to his treasure. Women are hardly seen in the game, accept once when a lady appeared playing a role to try to seduce him. However, her plan did not work and he was his way to capture his treasure. It shows that women were important at the time, going back hundred years ago. One may ask a question, “Why was there a woman character in the game”? I would think it was an entertainment for the male audience who plays the game.
Nevertheless, Ethnicity is related to the video game due to the common ancestry and the blood ties among the Indians. In this game, one can see that there are power issues towards the prince, because he wants to be accepted by his father. As he goes on his adventure he says, that he will win his father praise and not winning. This was a key he was determined to achieve his goal as the prince.
