Helloooo =]

I'm hoping this is an okay place to post this and that the kind mods allow me to do so

I'm currently in the final year of my BSc in Computer Games Technology and for my Dissertation I'm creating a basic Rhythm Action Game and also doing a lot of research into the games themselves in an effort to try and predict how popular a particular Rhythm Action Game may be on the market depending on its game elements.

Anyway, I'll get to the point

I would be greatly appreciative if you nice people would consider filling out a questionnaire to help with my research. They are annonymous and I have full ethical approval to carry out such studies. If you'd like to know more just PM or email me.

If you are interested in helping out (it takes like 5 minutes) that would be awesome. The questionnaire can be downloaded from:

http://www.digital-renegades.co.uk/stuff/rhythm.doc

It has text boxes over all the answer parts so you can just go right ahead and fill it out in word easily enough. (I thought it would be better to do it this way rather than copying the questions out and putting them in this post because theres both open and closed questions). If you do decide to fill it out can you please send it to this email:

[email protected] (created especially).

Also theres a more general gaming questionnaire at http://www.digital-renegades.co.uk/stuff/games.doc

I would however prefer that if you were to only do one of the two, that you do the first because you are all players of rhythm action games (as you play DDR).

Anyway, I hope some of you are bored enough to help me out!

I don't fit in any of those age ranges. There are many people here below 18.

Yeah I know

Unfortunately its more difficult to obtain ethical approval when the participant isnt of the age 18 and over (legally an adult in the majority of the world).

So basically I have to say that the people I asked were 18 and up. Maybe some of them arent?? Oh well

Why is that? It's not like it's about pornography or drugs. :/
