The ideology behind my front cover was to create a video game magazine cover that showed off new and upcoming games. On my front cover the game I used was a new football game called FIFO. I tried to make my magazine resemble PC Gamer and Games TM’s front covers by using a series of techniques.  

My target audience for my magazine is young boys who are interested in new upcoming video games, this ranges from the age of 8 to 21. Young boys who are interested in new upcoming games can read the magazine to learn more about their release dates and what they will include. If young gamers would like to have a better insight into how good future games are going to be and what to look forward to, this magazine would be perfect for them.  

The magazine includes information about games that will be coming out in the year. This information includes the games release date, their ratings and reviews from critics who have played the game early and features that the developers have announced will be included in the game.  

I decided to use the title “PressPlay” as it resembles gaming consoles and how you have usually press a button to start the game. I thought this was the best title to use as people who see the magazine will easily be able to identify that the magazine is for video games just by looking at the title. 

The use of language in my games magazine will be basic as the age range for my games magazine is vast. Using basic language will make it easy to read for anyone who is interested in video games.
