Mahatma Gandhi once said, “A nation's culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of its people.” This could not be more accurate because the people of a nation make up their own culture. Every nation in this world has a unique culture onto its self. Not one nations’ culture is totally and completely the same as another. There is only one reason for that, it is the people who live there. The people who live in these different nations have numerous things that make them special. The…

When taking a look at my family, we look like the “average American family”. A mom and a dad who are the same age, married at 23, with their first born as a male and their second born as a daughter. We are Irish-Catholic, from a small area in Philadelphia. Once my parents had my brother and I, they moved us out of the city into a small town in South Jersey. Both of my parents have always worked 40 (sometimes more) hour weeks. Between the four of us, we really never had any life-changing…

Paraphrased research Nintendo actually listens to customer complaints. Many of their systems produced are made from trial and error. In away they make more of their money testing us rather than give the final product because there is no final product. They test us and they continue to test us and when they hear there is some kind of flaw they work to improve the system. The Wii for example had choppy motion control on their first games. Their solution? Put a Gyroscope in each new control system…

I left everything behind when I was nine. I restarted almost my entire life, like a snake shedding its old skin. The only thing I still possessed deep inside my heart was the memories. Each one, stored in a special spot. However, there is one treasured memory of my last day in Massachusetts, one that would never fade. ... It was a wintery Saturday and the air chilled me to my bones. The thin blanket may have been fluffy, but it certainly could not keep out the cold. Last night I had stayed…

Advanced questions This was a second section of the Questionnaire, tailored specifically towards people who do play video games. People who don’t wouldn’t be able to properly answer these questions and as a result wouldn’t be able to provide good answers and as a result would damage my entire questionnaire. How often Video Games are bought My first question was created to help me gauge how often the average customer actually purchases a video game. This greatly varies based on multiple…

Millennials were a generation defined by technology. They experienced the uprise of the computer and the evolution from traditional arcade games to personal gaming consoles. The majority of them grew up playing classics such as Pac-man, Atari, Pokémon, and Zelda. To anyone who has referred to themselves as a gamer, a world absent of video games would be unfathomable. Luckily, those die hard gamers out there probably won’t have to say goodbye anytime soon; as of 2015 the American video gaming…

There are five conflict resolution styles to managing conflict. The five styles are Avoiding, Competing, Accommodating, Compromising, and Collaborating. Avoiding is the strategy that involves ignoring the issue and differences involved in the hopes that they will go away on their own. There is no engagement with the other party, and thus no expression of a struggle, despite the perception of difference. An example was in high school other kids will pick on me and call be different names, but…
