Correspondances et contrastes entre jeux traditionnels et jeux numériques (Broacasting our studies)
Progressively, a kind of paradox is created through the scientific literature related to the game and play fields. The number of works dedicated only to video games conceals gradually the works dedicated to traditional games, although there are always strong links between those two kinds of games.
