Briefing
Wikipedia is a multilingual, web-based, free-content encyclopaedia. Content is written collaboratively by anyone and adapts and develops constantly. As the world’s largest reference library there is an emphasis on clarity and fact. However information can at times be misunderstood and false. Wikipedia presents the world’s information in a uniform way through its use of the same page layout and the same typefaces (San Serif, Linux Libertine, Georgia, Times) all default typefaces used for web.
Design a 16 page publication including cover from a Wikipedia entry.
You may choose to repeat parts of your text, or re-configure and re-present the content. You can create or source images to accompany the text. You do not necessarily need to use the images on the wiki page. Avoid using found illustrations – these should be drawn and made by you.

Crit Notes
Look at instruction manuals
3D adobe dimension shapes, replicate logo? Look into history of it
Small text, instruction style
Different languages, instruction translations
Have an idea of what paper I would have used if we were printing
Translating an object - person place, concept
Show developments of consoles and comparisons
Cut scenes of games, the consoles that didn't make it, weren't so successful
