The Golden Joystick Awards 

Being known as the Oscars of the gaming world, The Golden Joystick Awards has revealed its winners on October 27 in London. This year The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is the biggest winner by scooping “Ultimate Game of the Year Award“.

From this news two sorts of local stories can be generated. 

One refers to the e-generation. Teenagers are big fans of computer game, and there is a increasing number of them voting for the awards this year. Moreover, the win of fantasy game indicates a gaming trend in the youth. Thus it is interesting to get views form Wales teenagers about how the computer game styles change in their memories, and what kind of games they fancy, perhaps which can lead to a story how the development of technology shapes young’s gaming interest. Going for dark side, we can question if the computer game is one of the reasons causing the youth’s healthy problems. According to BBC news, a high rate of UK students suffers from a back pain.

Another can focus on computer game industry in Wales. Do interviews in game shops to find out if their sales have been increasing for these years, and if the awards boosts the sales of winners. 

Report’s stark warning on climate

Climate change will affect global economy in the future especially poorer areas according to Sir Nicholas Stern. This is a top business story recently. A story based on Wales can start with climate change because obviously winter has been delayed this year. Local clothes shops are being influenced as the sales of winter coats are not optimistic in short term. Then we can expand on this point by giving the warning of how climate change can impact on local business in long term. Meanwhile, get views form people about green taxes. (The impact on gas guzzling activities)

 The high price of American beauty

The cosmetic surgery industry in American is booming. Americans now spend an alarming $15bn a year on cosmetic surgery. More and more young women are addicting to it. How is Wales? How is the acceptance of it of men and women here?
