My console

Research

This chart shows that male are the predominant species that play videogames. This means my console edges more toward a very male orientated colours and look

This chart shows it was about a 50/50 split between going out and buying games or buying then on the internet. I believe because of this I will have a disk system as well as an online marketplace to even out the results

Research

This chart shows that 100% of the participants play video games. This means I can clearly state that my console will be used to play games

This chart shows that the majority of participants play video games for more then 6 hours a week meaning I will build my console for gamers rather then an entertaining system unlike Xbox

Research

This chart shows that the majority of participants play on console and pc rather then mobile, I believe this i9s because the console and pc are more hard-core gamers.

This chart shows that online is very popular and so I must have an online capacity if I want my console to succeed.

More Research

This chart shows the most popular appeal in a game giving me an idea what possible games I could release

This chart shows that keyboard and mouse as well as pads are the most popular, giving me a good understanding an idea of what controller I could use.

This chart shows the price range what I can spend on creating my console as well as making a profit.

This chart clearly displays a 50/50 opinion on motion sensors and I believe that motion sensors will be the next most popular thing.

Reviews

XBOX ONE - This console got mainly good reviews with many review sights giving it a high score, the key elements that were pointed out were its controller and new improved kinect. The bad points that were pointed out were the too family orientated software rather then gaming itself.

PS4- This console was the more popular and more successful console then the Xbox one because it was built and marketed for gamers. The hardware was much more advance and gave the ps4 a upper advantage and so received a higher score in the reviews.

Wii U- Although many people do not see the Wii U as a next gen console as they brought it out 6 months earlier then other consoles. Although this did not stop it receiving good reviews. It scored a high score and although the hardware wasn’t as advance, it aimed at being fun and with the new tablet system it did just that

SPECS

Specs AdvantageCPU I have chosen the AMD 8 core CPU, this is a good CPU

allowing smooth gaming with an affordable price, it allows you to process multiple tasks and provides a great gaming experience

RAM DDR 3, 8 GB Ram, this allows the console to store short term memory at a fast rate. This large size means it wont crash and is at a cheap price

Storage media I will use an external hard drive that plugs into the back of the console; it will have 1 TB of memory. This allows the player to transport there saved data on to other consoles if they are at a friend’s house or get another console. Its 1 TB so there is not a lack of memory with a lot of modern games requiring a large download before you lay the game

Sound Creative Sound Blaster Recon3D 5.1 PCIe Sound Card This card allows the user to hear the best experience possible with speakers built into console and headset.

Graphic Processor The AMD A series 3.6ghz graphic processor allows you to play all games at a high graphic level and is a low price. And this means you receive a more immersive experience.

Console aesthetics and external components

Wireless adaptor aerials to connect to the internet allowing the user o play online.

Sensor to pick up actions and movement of players and the universal stick .

Power Box to provide power to the console.

Disc tray

Power button

2 USB Ports

HeadsetSuit

GloveMain

Accessory

The oculus rift styled headset meant the player would feel immersed in the game and felt like they were actually there. The headset would come in different sizes to fit the wide range of the target market

The gloves are comfortable and easy to slip on but are ergonomic so they do not slip off. They have a verity of buttons built on to them to do a verity of actions. Including a number of sensors to show actions such as picking up an item or swinging your arms.

Universal game stick. This is a hilt that turns into anything you want from a lightsaber to a golf club. It can be customisable and is ergonomic to fit the majority of hands well

The suit would be slick and tight to feel comfortable like a second skin. This also would come in different sizes and similar material to a morph suit. This suit would have sensors all around it to pick up damage dealt to the players in there gaming experience

Controls

Interface

I chose a interface inspired by the Xbox one interface as this is motion control friendly and is easy to move around.This interface is also very user friendly and a user can get used to the location of apps they like and certain actions

My Software kernel will be windows.
