1. Outcome 3 (Video Games Industry) By Lewis Arnott Creative Industries in the UK

2. Technological Impact The main improvement that has been made in the video game industry is that graphics cards were installed in platforms so that they can run the games. The reason that the graphic cards are improving is because newer games are getting more detailed so there is a need to improve the graphics cards so that the platforms are able to play the games. A way that you know if you have a game that needs a specific type of graphics card could be that it tells you what type of card you need to play the game.

3. Key legal Issues Some of the legal issues that are related to the video game industry include, the music and sounds that they use are ones they copyright themselves unless they wish to pay for the use of someone else music, There is also the legal issues that once the game has been distributed, the owners of that game aren’t allowed to make illegal copies of the game and then sell them for personal gain, Another legal issue there is in the video games industry is that the company can’t take parts for different games that they weren’t part of and use it in their game, unless two companies are working together to make a game and they have been given permission.

4. Health and Safety Issues The main health and safety issues that are in the video games industries is that you are staring at a screen all this time when you are creating, testing or playing a game which in the long run will damage your eyes, in some cases you can damage your eyes a lot because of too much staring at a screen. Your health is also at risk in the video game industries because you are sitting down like when you are making, testing or playing the a game and this could have bad consequences on your body, you may start getting “rounder” without exercise, you could also die if you play video too long without doing anything else, although this is rare, it is still possible.
