Kinect Sports 1

What key conventions of print adverts can you find on the example you have chosen? 
Product name? Font? Slogan? Central image? Colour?

I have found a series of key conventions including the central image which show two guys playing the game and also the product name on the bottom left tells us that the game is only for xbox because they have the kinect also the colour is the same colour used for all the xbox things.





Find three reviews for your game that were originally published in videogame magazines. Are they positive or negative about the game? Copy and paste one quote from each review.

METACRITIC: This action sports compilation for the Xbox 360's motion-sensing accessory Kinect features boxing, bowling, beach volleyball, soccer, ping-pong, and traditional athletic events.

Gamestop: You Are The Athlete With Kinect™ Sports, anyone can become the next star of the living room, and it’s fun no matter how fit you are. 

TheGameReviews: KINECT SPORTS is a whole new concept in interactivity, forget about the Wii and SONY'S MOVE this is has one distinct advantage over them, you can use your feet, In fact your entire body

Did your chosen game use a TV advert to promote the game? Embed it from YouTube if it did.


Can you find any other broadcast features on the game - interviews, launch party events, video reviews, clips of the gameplay on YouTube etc. Write about how they effectively promote the game to its target audience.











Visit your chosen game's official website. How does it attract and maintain the interest of its target audience?

the website for the game is on the official xbox website because its a game that xbo made all it show is the price of the game and poster that is show above and how you can buy the game so it isn't appealing to people to just found out about the game.

Are there any creative or interesting aspects to the game's official website?



i think that the most creative aspect is the recurring slideshow that has a second between each picture flicking through the album of photos sent by the public

Does the game have a YouTube channel?

No
