Learning Outcomes Understand the benefits and limitations of different gaming platforms Understand the function of different hardware components and how they alter the gaming experience

PC vs Console Which is better?

Activity… Book Link Create a table which compares different platforms that can be used for game development Include Windows PC, Mac, Playsation 4 and Xbox One, Nintendo Wii U, Apple IOS devices (phones and tablets), Android Devices (phones, tablets and notebooks), Adobe Flash, HTML 5 Platform Type Benefits Limitations

Hardware Central Processing Unit (CPU) Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) How to Pick Gaming PC Parts Central Processing Unit (CPU) Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) Memory (RAM, ROM) Outputs (display, sound) Inputs (keyboard, mouse, touch, kinetic, gamepad, joy stick, voice) Storage (HDD, cloud) Connections (internet, LAN, mobile network)

Activity… Book Link PC Parts Picker Create a document which explains the role of key hardware that forms a gaming device. How does each affect the gaming experience? Create a document which explains different input devices. For each explain how it works, what it inputs, what it looks like and how it affects the gaming experience Expensive Accessories Gaming Peripherals On A Budget

Review Produce a quick specification for: PC Parts Picker Produce a quick specification for: a computer capable of running a 3D photorealistic game a computer capable of running a 2D casual game Justify each choice of hardware component What are the main differences between the two specifications? WHY? The main considerations are the CPU, GPU and memory but are there any other components which would make the gaming experience more complete?
