Video game case study feedback and LR


WWW: Two very good case studies – as ever it’s a pleasure to mark your work! It’s clear to see you’ve understood the key components of each game and also linked it to the four key concepts. For these CSPs we could get a question related to any of those concepts so it’s vital we have a strong knowledge and understanding across the board.

EBI: I think the key question now is how we move from a solid grade 5 or 6 up to the top band of 7+. There are two things that will help you to do this: firstly, some questions are answered in a single sentence. Often this is appropriate but on other questions you could write more. Ultimately, it’s the depth and analysis in your exam answers that will take you to the higher grades. Secondly, I really think you should be taking on the grade 8/9 extension tasks. I appreciate you have other subjects and demands on your time but these links and questions are exactly what you need to be doing if you want to get the top grade you are capable of.

LR: Go back to both case studies and take on at least one of the extension tasks for each. Post links to the updated blogposts in your LR blogpost once this is complete.


Lara Croft Go:
Does Lara Croft Go target a female audience? Why do you think female gamers dominate the phone/tablet market? 
I believe that the main target audience for this game is women as even though the number of female gamers have increased this is only due to the fact that many video games now-a-days are dominated by games you can play on a portable device and this is because most women are only interested in quick easy games you can play on the go.

Kim Kardashian: Hollywood:
Read this Guardian article on a Kardashian controversy regarding promoting products on Instagram. Why do some people regard Kardashian as a "toxic influence"? 
Kim Kardashian is believed to be a "toxic influence" as even though she has many young female fans she continuously promotes anti self confident products such as appetite suppressors which are extremely out-dated.
