Halo 4 - Audience Profile


TEXT:

Halo 4 is a first-person shooter video game developed by 343 Industries and published by Microsoft Studios  for the Xbox 360 video game console. Halo 4 is a shooter game in which players predominantly experience gameplay from a first-person perspective; the game perspective switches to third-person when using certain weapons, abilities and vehicles. The player's head-up display (HUD) shows real-time information on the player character's armor system, such as shield status, information on current weapons and abilities, and waypoints for goals and objectives. The HUD also has a motion tracker that detects allies, enemies, and vehicles within a certain radius of the player.

The majority of Halo 4 gamers are 17 year old male students living in cities such as London, Birmingham, Manchester, Sydney, Melbourne, Chicago, Los Angeles etc. This is justified due to the fact that Halo 4 is an online game requiring high-speed broadband which is most efficiently accessible in suburban locations. Furthermore, 17 year olds tend to play the game with their peers from school, therefore creating such a demography.

People within this range are most likely to purchase products such as Vans shoes, Monster energydrinks, Samsung smart-phones, MadCatz stereo gaming earphones, as well as the necessity to be able to play the game - the Microsoft XBOX 360.
