Analysing of a game using LIAR…

Language;

The effect d by The tittle, the packaging of the game,  background image creates a sense of interest to young boys in particular. The guns helicopters and awesome cars on the cover of the game creates a sense of adventure making the person to buy the game in order to feel that adventure and experiences they might never have. The word ‘Grand’ suggests that is big, the main event this attracts young people into buying it as they like the latest thing. The men in suits shows sophistication the effect that this might have on the players is it might make them feel mature and “grown up” because most of their buyers are young. The genre of this game is action-

adventure and this is also shown on the cover by all the guns and cars.

This game is targeted at mostly young men stereotypically because there is action/adventure. The background and the picture can attract young men into buying this product, but I will say that at least 3% of the buyers might be females that are into adventure and violence.

Representation;

The men in suits on the cover shows sophistication the effect that this might have on the players is it might make them feel mature and “grown up” because most of their buyers are young, the cover also shows the genre because of the guns and scary looking guys.
