Short survey for a school major project, please fill out for me?

[Elenril]

Hi guys,

I've just started yr 12 (final year of high school), and for my Design & Technology major project, I'm going to create a design document for a video game. But first I need to conduct surveys to find out what gamers like, and all that kind of stuff, so I can develop a design that will appeal to the right target market. I've prepared a survey (it's very short and sweet!), so if you could just take a few minutes to fill it out for me, that'd be great.

+rep to everyone who helps me out here.

If you don't want anyone to see your answers, please send a PM my way.

Thanks!

What is your favourite game(s)?

Crysis
Command and Conquer series

Briefly, what is it about this game(s) that appeals to you?

Crysis: It is just flat out fun. That game is very well made, it looks very good, and best of all, I have a really good time playing it. The Crytek 2 engine is flat out awesome too. It allows you to get more immersed in the gameplay and you focus on the game and not the flaws as there are none that I've really noticed so far.

C&C series: Each game in the series has its own little quirks that make it stand out from the others. They all are pretty well made and have their own unique style of gameplay that sets them apart from other series. I've been a big fan of this series since "CnC: Red Alert."

EDIT: I added Storyline to the appropriate field as I didn't realize I deleted it, lol.
