This study analyses its effects on the historiographical representation and how it loses its exclusively human focus by thinking about social issues not only interconnected with natural issues, but also distinguishable and obscured amongst complex cultural elements. In this respect, there are several trends and authors, who, from philosophical, sociological and anthropological points of view, have reconsidered the connection between culture and nature and between culture and technology, reinstalling, with new approaches, the importance of a new epistemology and a new ontology to explain the complexity of real issues: We will illustrate this problem with the video game experience in Morelia (Mexico) and Valparaiso (Chile). Our reflection focuses on thinking of historiography and how, based on its concepts and theoretical models, it transforms the content of the classical definition of historiography as social history. La historia de los videojuegos importa a la historiografía entre otras razones porque está ligada a una transformación más amplia del concepto de sociedad y de lo social que caracterizará a la época actual. En este estudio se analizan los efectos de este problema en la representación historiográfica y de qué manera al pensar lo social ya no sólo interconectado con lo natural sino también diferenciado entre artefactos culturales complejos y confundido entre estos, va perdiendo su centralidad exclusivamente humana. De este modo son diversas las corrientes y los autores que, desde la filosofía, la sociología y la antropología actual han replanteado la relación entre la cultura y la naturaleza y entre la cultura y la tecnología reinstalando con nuevas orientaciones la importancia de una nueva epistemología y de una nueva ontología para dar cuenta de la complejidad de lo real: Ilustraremos esta problemática con la experiencia de los videojuegos en Morelia (México) y Valparaíso (Chile). Nuestra reflexión apunta a pensar especialmente a la historiografía y al modo como eventualmente desde sus conceptos y modelos teóricos va transformando el contenido de la ya clásica definición de la historiografía como historia social.
