MARKET RESEARCH
• I know that all of my answers came from 16, 17 and 18 years old boys, which means that my answers are bias towards their particular views of hard-core action games.• If it were possible I should have asked people who
were over 18 and 40, as well as people under 17.
MARKET RESEARCH
• Due to my results I am going to try to create a console that can play low-budget Indie-Games. These games would revolve mostly around gameplay and multiplayer
CONSOLE REVIEW - PS4
• The PS4 is said to be over 10 times more powerful than the PS3.• The PS4 is made out of PC components by AMD,
which make production cheaper and games production easier.• The PS4 has good architecture and is small and
compact.• http://www.gamespot.com/articles/playstation-4-r

CONSOLE REVIEW – XBOX ONE
• The Xbox One has several pointless features such as allowing games and T.V. to run simultaneously on it.
• The Xbox One Kinect is more effective than the Xbox 360 version, this is because it can see people using infrared, it can read biometrics and it can work with people closer to it than its predecessor.
• Lags behind the PS4 in its raw performance.• The Xbox One can play videos with a resolution of
4k, although most software struggle to play 1080p• http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/reviews/game/3490605/

CONSOLE REVIEW – WII U
• The first HD Nintendo console.• The graphics power rivals that of the Xbox 360
and PS3 (which are 7 years old and have successors released).• Its big selling point is a huge, tablet-like controller
that combines the motion controls of the Wii, the physical controls of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and the touch screen of the Nintendo 3DS.• http://
