Practice: Exam Question 10 Media Y

 ‘Gender representation in video games is fair and balanced.’ How far do you agree with this view? Your answer should refer to Kim Kardashian: Hollywood and Lara Croft Go. [20 marks]

I disagree with the statement

In modern day, Video games continue to rise and old versions of video gamers died off, new games are being made to play in the future for entertainment.The Kim Kardashian's the character is more focused on it's appearance than in Lara Croft Go, it's focused on it's feminine body for male gamers. Kim kardashian and Lara croft Go are different because of the graphics.Lara Croft Go is more realistic than Kim kardashian.In Lara Croft Go the female character is more sexualised whereas in Kim Kardashians, it is least sexualised. In Lara Croft Go, people may play for a number of reasons such as peer pressure or wanting to fit in. Games such as 'Kim Kardashian's' can customise your character to become rich and famous than Lara Croft Go. The female in Lara Croft Go is more intelligent, powerful and explorer to kill enemies of monsters whereas in Kim Kardashians, the character isn't a explorer, powerful person. The female character in Kim Kardashian's. Last reason that i disagree because in Kim Kardashian it takes place in a city whereas in Lara Croft Go, it takes place in a massive, tall jungle inside of a temple.



I agree with the statement

In modern day, old video games are dying off and being replaced with new, better video games for the future. When people who play their first video game, they will slowly get addicted to it for long hours. There is also a strong sense that you always need to look your best and this can be very harmful to adolescents in parts of the game scenes. If people play games that has too much violence, the mental health problems gets much worse. In Lara Croft Go you have to slay monsters and run away from the queen of venom whereas in Kim Kardashians, the things are not in that game. Pegi made new rules and video games changed to follow the rules of less violence and swearing in part of the scene in different games.
