VIDEO GAME THE MOVIE QUESTIONS

 

1. The main reason that videogames are so successful is because they open up a new world to gamers. It allows them to enjoy a new experience in a variety of genres like racing, sport, first-person shooting, open world and many more. Also it allows them to create new skills or improve their skills like improving their reaction, speed up their thinking etc. What makes video games so popular is mostly the story and characters because it turns into a movie were you can control the main characters action and sometimes change the outcome of the story.

 

2.The reasons on how the gaming industry crashed in 1980 is because the creators of the game started getting lazy and were using the same ideas over and over. An example is the "E.T" game which was known as the worst game ever because they over hyped the game and when it made it to the stores, gamers were so disappointed in it because it was to simple and the graphics looked like they didn't even put any real work into it.

 

3. I know some people don't agree but my opinion, video game is an art because the people who make the graphics of these games have to put lots of details into it so it can be applying to the audience. Like from the grass to the sky, graphic designs have to put lots of effort and work into making it realistic like a movie and making sure it has a unique style so that it doesn't seem like the same thing as other games.

 

4. I think the next generation of gaming is virtual reality because that way it can make a drastic change from sitting on a couch and pressing buttons to running around, reloading a gun and physically shooting making it feel like your in the game and being the character. The only problem is finding the technology that can allow tons of graphic and horse powers to make it look good and to improve motion because while we do have it, sometimes it doesn't work like how we're doing it or that it glitches into doing something completely different.



KODU-INTRO

 

 

 

 

 

1.I had some difficulty with programing Kodu because I couldn't figure out how to increase his turning speed. I also had a problem where if I hit the walls, I end up wall jumping which got annoying for a bit. And lastly I had a problem making smooth hills because whenever I tried to use the smooth tool, it wouldn't make it smooth instead it just made it lower.

 

2. One of the students who played my game suggested to add more objects onto the map to make it less dull, so I added a few trees to live it up a bit. Another student who tried my game said to make Kodu faster because the CPU's were to fast and made it unplayable, so I used the program tool and added speed to Kodu so that he's fast but not over powered fast.
