Cover Analyze

     

The main colours on this video game cover is a bold blue, which looks dull when looking at the two brightly coloured red and yellow racing cars. The colours of the cars are bright to catch the attention of the buyer and the use of the two racing cars are to show that the game is on driving cars. 
We can also see a small motorcycle which tells us that the game gives a choice of different vehicles to play.
The cover is eye-catching and is mainly aimed at teenage boys who like virtual driving games and show and interest in the latest cars.

My Videogame defintion

A Video game is a computerized interactive game that people can play for educational or entertainment purposes.

A Video game can:

- have different levels otherwise known as a platform game

- include puzzles and problems that you have to solve

- be controlled by; mouse, keyboard, controller or yourself via an avatar

- be touch screen if you are using your; mouse, keyboard, iPod, Nintendo DS, iPad

- be stressful at times if you cannot get passed a certain part of the game

- be satisfying when you are actually getting past a problem

- it must be exciting and make you want to play it

- have a first person shooter, this is when you see the gun on the screen instead of the actual shooter

My 2 favorite game genres:
- driving-action and adventure, I enjoy playing "Test Drive"  which is a game that allows you to be the driver, in this game there is action as you can compete in races and time trials against other player or the console. It also has adventure in it as you are free to drive where you like a cross the island.
- Role play, I like the game "Im in the Movie" as you are the controller and you have to act and play different characters so that you can finally produce a small movie at the end.
