Survey
Analysis Ben snellgrove
Question 1 -Do you feel that the
sexual violence is needed within gta?
The results i received from this
question were quite one way. The question was about violence within gta, one of the main aspects of the game. 57.14% of the votes said that sexual violence wasn't needed within the game, whilst 28.57% disagreed with the point i made. Just the one person was undecided.
Question 2 Do you feel the use of
weapons is over excessive in gta?
Is the use of weapons over
excessive? That was the question i asked. And there was one clear answer. Yes. 71% of the people i asked felt that the use of weapons was too much. However, i must state that only one of the people who answered my questionarre were over 18 years of age. Therfore, it shouldnt matter to them at this current stage whether the use of weapons was to much, becuase they shouldnt be playing the game in the first place. The final 2 people left to answer the questionnaire were split. One answered no, and the other answered maybe.
QUESTION 3 on a scale of 1-5, how do you
feel that the violence in gta has an effect on how you behave?
This question was different to the others as
the public had to answer on a scale basis. It was about how the behaviour on the game affected their personal behaviour. 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest. This was the most even answered amount of answers that id recieved so far. 1 answered for 1 out of 5, 2 people rated it 2 out of 5, none voted it half way out 3, 1 answered at 4, and finally the most popluar answer was 5. this concludes that the public feel that the behaviour on the video game does effect them and their behaviour on a day-to-day basis. But do they take it as far? Do they go round killing and shooting people? Do they steal cars? I dont think they do, becuase if they did, they wouldnt have been able to answer this questionairre.
QUESTION 4 HOW MANY HOURS OF
GTA HAVE YOU PLAYED THIS WEEK?
This question was to o with the
amounbt of game time played on gta. In total, up to 24 hours of gta was played in a week between just 7 people. The most common amount of game time was 1-3 hours, whilst 0-1 and 5+ had one selection each.
QUESTION 5 WHAT POSITIVES DO
YOU TAKE FROM THE GAME?
This was a question where the public
could leave a answer on what they thought, rather than categories that they had to select. The question was about the positives that you take from the game. All in all, there werent any real positive answers. The only one on exception was that you make friends whilst playing online and it a social event. Other answers included that their reactions improved and so did their alertness. The remaining answer were negative, saying there was nothing positive to take from the game play.
QUESTION 6 DO YOU FEEL THE
VIOLENCE IS REAL?
Do you feel the violence is real?
This was my sixth question. The majority said that they felt the violence was real, and that this was a good part of the game experience. One person said they didnt feel the violence was real, and two people said that only on certain occasions do they feel the violence is real, and therefore their vote was split.
QUESTION 7 HAVE YOU SEEN THE
VIOLENCE THAT YOU SEE IN THE GAME HAPPEN IN THE STREETS
This question was to do with day
to day life experiences. I asked about the violence on the game itself, and whether they had seen this kind of violence on the streets where they live. To my suprise, 4 people said they had seen similar violence to what they see on gta. A quarter of that number said they hadnt seen violence like that, whilst 2 people said they had seen violence but on a lesser scale to what was seen on the game
QUESTION 8 IF YES, DO YOU FEEL THEIR
ACTIONS MAY HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY GTA?
This question was linked to the
previous question. Only six people could answer this because they were the only ones to have seen violence on the streets similar to the violence on the game. I asked may the violence that you saw, have been effected by the actions on gta. 2 people agreed, and said that they thought the actions/ violence they saw on the streets, would have been down to the game play on gta. Whilst double that number said that no, the violence had nothing to do with the game.
QUESTION 9 DO YOU FEEL THE GAME
WOULD HAVE BEEN AS GOOD WITHOUT VIOLENCE?
Would the game be as good
without violence? A difficult decision because this is what the game is based around. The vote was split evenly, with two people saying that yes, the game woul be just as good, 3 said no i wouldnt, and 2 said maybe, and that they would have to play the game without violence to see if it was better or worse.
QUESTION 10 IF YES, WHY?
Only two people could answer
this question as it was linked to the last. Their responses were that the game would be better and calmer if the game included less violence and would therfore be bough down from such a high age restriction.
