Duke Nukem 3D's and Shadow Warrior's both video games speculations concerning white subjectivity and yellowface performance call for an investigation into the value of performing as a racial other for the sake of game play. Yellowface directly questions cultural studies' investments in representations and identity by exposing the dangers of analyses that uncritically use notions of cultural identity, race and subjectivity.
