Yo Daniel, I love marioKart I also used to play it on the nintendo DS, I remember all the boys gathering and just screaming at the DSs, it was very competitive. Its mad to see how much mario games have evolved, it went from a game of poor graphics on nintendo to it being available on all platforms. Keep it up!
Hello my name is Daniel Jupe. I am 20 years old and in 2nd year of the Creative digital media course in TU Dublin. My Favourite part of last year was the studio photography module. I enjoyed this module the most because I learnt a lot about lighting and photography and it was the most enjoyable for me. To be entirely honest my goal for this module is just to pass. I haven't really got much interest in video games I will remain open minded going into this module but I can't imagine ill enjoy it that much so just a B or a C would do me. In My spare time when I'm not doing college work or working my job I like to go to the gym, listen to music /podcasts, go skating and surfing for the weekend whenever I get it off. I think my short term goal is to get through to 3rd year without any more repeats. in the longer run Id like to work with some company like red bull or some kind of production company to do photography and videography covering action sports, concerts and festivals....

Finding papers for this week was pretty difficult I had initially been using the college library website but I then switched to using google scholar which I found a lot more effective I was able to find papers a-lot faster. I find that in a lot of papers that I look at on my topic there’s a fair bit of repetition. So I decided to mind map my topic and expand it a bit so I would have more success in diversifying my writings. So this week I read a paper that looked at games as a meaningful experience. They conducted a test on two groups of people to examine the perceptions of enjoyable and meaningful video games. another hot topic that I decided to look into was the emotional and psychological aspect of first person shooter games and the reactions to the violence. Another paper I read read was about the physical interactions the player has with a machine. The vibrations of the controller the reactions caused from pressing the buttons to the sound effects linked with these thin...
