[euro_scene]

Here is the question

Assessment Objective 1:

Analyse the principles of games and its component disciplines:

• Choose two current titles from two different genres and describe their core mechanics, the style and level of interactivity, storytelling and narrative and its audio-visual components (1000 words max).



I am going to choose Fifa 10 and Call of Duty 4.

What does it mean by their core mechanics?

Hope you can help

Thanks

Core mechanics are the things that happen all the time. So in CoD4 it would be shooting, zooming, reloading, taking cover, etc. In FIFA it would be passing, dribbling, shooting, scoring, team selection etc.
