Fifa 14

Fifa 14
Fifa 14 promotes its game in many ways one
way is by using well known players and famous players for example in the poster
they use Lionel Messi who is the best footballer in the world. He is used also
because he is an inspiration to many football fans across the world so if he is
used they are more likely to buy the game. The words written on the
poster" Real Leagues”, “Real Teams, “Real Players" connote that the
game uses real footballers and tries to make it an enjoyable game to play.The game received a lot of positive reviews
and only a few negative reviews here are 3 of each from Amazon: Fifa 14 is far from a revolutionary
release, and it's arguably inferior to the much improved PES 2014 in terms of
pure footballing gameplay. That said, fifa 14 is the most complete virtual
footballing experience available today. Whether in single or multiplayer,
there's enough to keep fans busy well into the new football season and beyond. FIFA has always been my choice of soccer
video games and always will be! They did a great job on FIFA14. The career mode
is a blast to play, the new trainings really help out, the graphics are
wonderful, and overall it's a winner! If you love soccer and especially soccer
video games then this is the one for you. I can't wait to see what they will
roll out with next!You might dislike the game at first because
it feels outrageously hard when you play it for the first time. But once you
play it for a couple of times and get used to the player movement, passes,
defending etc. you will have an unhealthy addiction to the game. Best FIFA game
in my opinion. Also, the career mode is off the chain!Here are
some negative reviews from AmazonI buy the
new Fifa every year. I don’t think i have ever disliked a fifa game so much.
The career mode is so bad. The scouted players that are available for you take
for ever to get to be decent players. The skill moves are impossible to use. I
can’t say it enough there are better games out there to spend your money on.
This one is just going to anger you. Couldn't Connect to EA servers. Slow,Confusing menus, waste of time on practice before every game. Not updated players. Is a 2014 but there is 2013 players

Grand Theft Auto V (L.I.A.R)
GTA V L.I.A.R

Language
The language in this poster is a bold white writing telling us the name of the game Grand Theft Auto It also stands out to the audience telling us the name Cleary and making it so we see. The green five is the logo of the game. The background image is a man holding a vicious dog on a chain and a baseball bat. In the bottom right is the rock star logo. Rockstar are the producers of Gta5.
Institution
The makers of the series 'Grand Theft Auto' is Rock star Games, a world wide, billionaire company. The 'Grand Theft Auto' games are one of the most known games throughout gaming history. As you can tell they're very big organisations which continue to bring out games other than GTA like 'Red Dead Redemption'. I feel it is important for them to have their logo on the front cover as it is well known and may encourage people to buy their games.
Audience
This game is mainly for males ranging from 14 to 28 years old. But the game is recommended for age 18 plus. I think it’s mainly for boy because of what you are able to do in the game like steal cars and girls may not be interested in that.
Representation
Within the GTA series there has been a new character every game and with this one it is no different. However, instead of having one main character, there is now three. The game is based around their lifes and you can switch person and merge into their life with a click. The representation of GTA is very positive in the media.
