Presentation:

Task - 2

Task - 1

Terrain: The terrain is the land that the game play is set/based in, e.g hills and mountains. An example of this is Journey. This game has multiple terrains as the player goes on a journey through different stages of the game (all linked together), the main one being in a sand dune in a desert that doesn't seem to end, also there is a mountain which the players go to. The other terrains featured in this game is snow, under water and in the sky.

Characters:characters in the game which is controlled by the player, and is usually the main character in the games story. Usually the game has a different character for each player (if the game is a multiplayer) or the game has options where you can choose your character you want to play as- in this option the different characters may have different abilities, strengths and weaknesses which will effect the game play differently. An example of this is Mario kart, there are multiple characters to choose, but in the original Mario games you could only play as Mario. Then it became a multiplayer for only 2 players (Mario & Luigi), finally it was made to many characters like the game Mario kart.


NPC: There are characters in a game that isn't controlled buy the player, This usually means the non-playable characters (NPC) are controlled by the computer through artificially intelligence. In normal tabletop role-playing games the term is that the characters are controlled by the game-master or referee, rather than another player. An example of this is Grand theft auto V, this game is full of non-playable characters all around the map that you can interact with if you wanted but can't play as them.

Feedback: An interface can come in different ways like:

• Display of progress- Objectives,Map information 
• Information- Health, Ammo, Map
• Feedback- Blinking health bar means you're dying

Interfaces: The interfaces should always be on the edges of the screen- away from from central vision of the player.

An example for this is the Uncharted series. When hurt the players screen starts to go grey.

Perspective: These are different views that the game has during the game play- 3D or 2D, third-person, first-person.

2D- This is a game that has two dimensional graphics which your character/avatar and the world is flat. Also tho only controls that you can do is: right, left, up and down and the camera angle never changes- only pans left to right and up and down. An example of this is the original Mario game, It is one of the most popular 2D games and is well known all over the world.

Third-person- In third-person gaming the player is allowed to see more around the character, this perspective is most common in action and action adventure games. There are three different types of third-person camera systems: the "fixed camera systems" is where the camera positions are set during the game creation. The "tracking camera systems" is when the camera simply follows the player's character. Finally the "interactive camera systems" which are under the player's control. An example of this is Tomb Raider, this game has good graphics and is a good example of third-person gaming.

Full motion video: This is a mechanic that shows pre-recorded video files to add action to the game play. Many games have FMVs as a way to show information during cut-scenes, games which are primarily presented through FMVs are known as full-motion video games or interactive movies. A cut-scene (sometimes in-game cinematic or in-game movie) is a sequence in a game that is not interactive, it is used for breaking up the game play. An example of this is The Last of us, this game has a lot of cutscenes because it is a story driven game.
 

Gameplay

Sport: NBA 2k16 is a sports game with a very interesting story mode. When first starting the game you have to create a character. The story mode starts with the character you have made starting at High school and you play on the schools basketball team you then advance on to college and dependin on how good you play you will be selected onto a certain team and will have to play for that team. Depending on how you play you will be given a salary and if you play good you will earn a good salary, If you are bad you could be sold to a different team.

Simulation: The most popular Simulation game would be The sims. The sims is basically a simulation on life. you first create a family and then create somewhere for the family to live, After that you design what goes in the house and what happens to the family. The story to Sims is keeping the family alive and making sure they don't die. The player can decide what happens to the family by making them get jobs and even host parties. The player is also capable of destroying the house and building the family an even bigger and more better house, The choice on the story is up to the player.


Role playing Game (RPG): RPG games are one of the most played games in the genre. The overall best RPG game would be the Elder Scrolls franchise. The Elder Scrolls story are that in depth, you create a character from a selection of races, then you are given are certain task to complete to enter the main game. the game changes on your actions depending on whose side you are on. All RPG games have a character creation and the player is following that character on its journey and  the Players have been with that character from the start and that the character is unique in its own way.  
 

Adventure:Adventure is one of the oldest game genres, and refers to a type of game that doesn't include action gameplay or reflex-based challenges. Rather, players explore their environment, interact with characters, and solve puzzles to progress.


Strategy: Civilization 5 would be a good game to say it has a good story as the game is online and requires strategic ways of taking down the enemy. You take control of an army and are given a little section of the map. Your objective is to take control of the entire world by destroying the enemy players armies. The games story can end in 2 ways, You win and take control or you lose and your army gets wiped out. The army you create is unique in its own way as you decide what happens to it when playing for example you can demand or trade items and can decide what you army looks like. The story is basically told by the player.

Action  Action games usually revolve around some type of combat where the player controls a character or avatar, and require fast reflexes and hand-eye coordination to overcome obstacles and defeat enemies. 

Puzzle: Puzzle games players must, obviously, solve puzzles to progress. They may also be video game versions of real-world established types of puzzles, like Sudoku or trivia games. Pure Puzzle games are now rare, but they have been incorporated into all sorts of game genres, including Action-Adventures, RPGs, and even FPS games.
