After looking around on twitter I decided that Twitter is very useful. When I first signed up onto to twitter, it gave me the option to click on my interests. I picked anything involving the game industry and it followed the main gaming consoles, game players, and anything involving gaming. I thought that was very useful. By following all these people you can get notified whenever a new game comes out, an update in your game, a new products, and much more. I find twitter a lot more reliable than other sources because it's more up to date than other sources. You usually get notified immediately when new stuff comes out. It's faster than having to go and search up stuff, when you can just get a notification when something new happens. I prefer twitter a lot more than Facebook or Instagram. You can look to the right of their username and if they have a check next to their name that means they are verified. If they are verified that means they are the real deal. The main people I follow are @gameinformer and @IGN because they give you video game news, game reviews and previews, guides, videos, walkthroughs, cheats, movie trailers, E3, TV, and comics. They basically keep you up to date on the gaming industry. Also youtube is a great place for the gaming industry and lots of youtubers will notify you on twitter whenever they post something new on their gaming channels. Twitter is just a great way to keep you up to date on the gaming industry. Twitter is a great for consumers and producers. Producers can get feed back on their games because people can comment and like to show how they feel about what the producer is doing. Consumers can then get notified when their favorite game has an update or new addition.

For my legal issue I picked copyright. I learned that copyright protects artistic and literary expression in video games. One thing I found interesting was that game controllers and consoles are generally not copyright-able. Copyright does not protect useful products and I did not know this. Also Copyright law does not protect ideas; only actual expressions that have come into being as some object or tangible property. The hardest part when making a game is to make sure someone doesn't already have that idea or same title because there are so many games in this world and you constantly have to check to make sure someone doesn't have the same idea.
Game careersI have learned what it is like to be a Programmer, Artist, Game designer, Level Designer, Narrative Designer, Audio Engineer, and a Producer. After doing research I felt like the Level designer was the right job for me. I think it is because I am not amazing at drawing,but I feel like I am creative enough to come up with level designs and characters. Most of the quizzes I took said that it was not the right job for me, but I feel like a level designer is. I love coming up with cool and fun ideas. At first I wanted to be the artist/animator, but then after reading about all the jobs I decided that I liked level designer better. My perception has changed a little because now I realize there are so many different jobs involved in making a game and it can be hard to pick which part.
