Halo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Halo 4

2.Web series builds anticipation for 'Halo 4'


3. CNN

4. This article is about how the new Halo game has been released.  Other aspects in this article that are covered are: What’s new, and what happens in this game. Also what differences there are.

5. I am personally very excited! I’ve been waiting for this to come out, and now that I know what changes are being made... I’m even more stoked! The fact that they are making this interactive game into a linear game, makes me wonder how it’s going to work. Now, this event affects me because I’m a hardcore gamer. Halo has always been one of my favorites. I also thought, that after reach, they were not going to make any more Halo games, so I’m going to have to get it!

6. This event impacts the world in multiple ways. Just like many videogames Halo is increasingly popular. After the release of Reach, it has attracted many fans. Also, the fact that the game was shot as a movie, will probably make it even more popular. Even Feldman had things to say about the game
"For the hardcore fans that have played the games, read the books, read the comics, have the consumer products, and are fully intending to dive into 'Halo 4,' this is very much an additive experience,"  (Feldmen)  This statement of his, goes to show how popular the game is. Another way to tell how the event impacts the world, is the fact that video games are an universal experience.

Need for Speed

1. Need for Speed most wanted

2.Need for Speed: Most Wanted Vita developed by Criterion, includes extra content


3. Shacknews

4. This need for speed game, is a new installment for the well known games. Unlike the other games that this game was played on, this one is for the Playstation Vita, and Playstation 3. One thing that makes this game different opposed to its handheld counterparts. Is the fact that in this version of the game, there are additional features that were not in the original games. This game released yesterday October 30th 2012.
                      
5.With this, I am excited that this game is coming out! I own a lot of the need for speed games, and this just is amazing to put it lightly. The release of this game affects me, because I’ve played these games since Need for speed:Underground came out back in 2004. Also, now that today is halloween all of the gamers will be either A:Taking children trick-or-treating, B: Handing out candy. The odds that they will be in line, are less than what might have happened. The line, will also be shorter since the game is not as popular as Madden, Legend of Zelda, or Pokemon. So, now knowing this, I will be able to quickly get the game.

6.This event impacts the world, because Need for speed is a very popular game. The fact that it just came out, will cause stores worldwide to sell out and gain a major profit. Also, gamers since the game came out the day before halloween. October 30th, Gamers would know to go ahead and either A: Preorder the game, B: Go get the game, regardless of it being halloween. With them now knowing this, those who are unaware will not be in line waiting for the game, and those who are aware will be able to get the game in half the time it would’ve taken. Therefore, this is how the event impacts the world.
