1. The following presentation is a set of numerical data collected for a survey
about different people playing together in a single game, specifically, GTA 5,
the point of the survey was to show that GTA 5 does indeed unite people from
different social classes into a single video game.
We have conducted our research through many ways, face to face
conversation, Facebook, Twitter, E-mails, internet
forums/websites and other social websites such
as reddit. In total, we have received about
2500 responses in total in our group of 3 but
for the sake of this presentation we will condense
the statistics to a 100 people. Most of the
responses came from the internet as we had
problems with getting enough resources to
conduct the research face-to-face.

12. After doing our research, we have realised many things, indeed, GTA 5 appeals to all sorts of people which
proves the point that this survey initially set out to prove. Some of this research can however be biased
because of us not being able to do more face-to-face surveys because of lack of materials to do so.
For the future, we could also redo some of the questions or even replace them, for example, the one that asks
if someone is a gamer or not could have been cut off since that can be asked before the survey, thus saving
space for additional questions.
Overall however we feel like we have created a pretty solid survey which explains a lot of things to us when it
comes what kinds of people tend to play GTA 5 and how many of tchem they are.
Since we asked on a variety of internet websites we feel like this part of the survey went well since we were
able to get answers from all sorts of different communities.
GTA 5 was indeed a blockbuster of a game that united gamers and even to some
extent many of the non gamers into a one massive, great game that is GTA 5.
