For the research side of the project I will be going over three topics of research to ensure that i gather all information required to get me through this section. The three topics will cover Primary research, Secondary research and target audience. On this page I will be covering the Target audience section as well as the contributions from my team members about the age rating, the console breakdown, gender breakdown, play length and finally the game cost for the game.
The target audience is a topic that is really important to look into as it is something that will help decide your age rating and more so as a team we broke this topic into sections. Starting off I will be covering the console breakdown to help us decide what console will be the best for a game like ours to draw attention. Underneath are my teams contributions to the target audience which will consist of, age rating, gender breakdown, play length and game cost.
Console breakdown
The console breakdown, is a section that helps decide which console to put our game on. The main and obvious one for us would be PC as this is known for its popularity and its choices of publishing games. On this slide I will break down why we have decided to choose PC to publish our game. This will consist of comparing two consoles, which in this case it would be PC, Xbox and PlayStation and I would be pointing out disadvantages and advantages that these consoles produce to give me a more valid reason of choosing PC. I will cover the applications that these two consoles have and which ones are the most successful to help me back up my point further.Â
To continue the target audience section off, I have sent in all of my team members contributions to the target audience and their research side to each section. They have all chosen a section from a list of things to look into and research about for their blogs. Below are each of the members website links to their research side of the target audience.
