摘要
This study considers the ratings of games published in magazines devoted to computers and games and the influence they have on willingness to buy products. It explores the influences of the volume of advertising bought by the publishers of the games by analyzing 5 major German magazines for the special field of first person shooter (FPS) games and interviews with major game publishers. The findings indicate a strong correlation between advertising volume and ratings.
