You gotta be real rich to purchase one of those here in Brazil

Nice read

I can only give you one advice: This industry is seeking specialists rather than generalists, that's specially true in big studios. A college degree is very important in my opinion considering that this industry is getting very competitive. But don't fool yourself/waste your money with a generalistic degree. Find out what aspect of game creation you like and choose a course that's going to help you land a job in that area. A design/fine arts degree is the right choice if you want to be a game artist. Go for a Computer Sciences degree If you want to be a programmer and so on. Work on a few good mods in your free time and that should give you enough experience/social networking to help you land that job in a kickass studio in the future, as stepp said. I don't see much point in doing a game design course because they mostly teach you how to use softwares and frankly you can do that reading free tutorials on the internet. Just my two cents.

Good luck Zacker, I'm sure it was the right decision (in the long run).

I'm thinking exactly the opposite lately: College isn't really challenging me enough anymore, leaving my motivation on the ground. So I've been thinking of putting it on on hold and pursue a games industry job. I can always go back and resume it if I feel like so. Who knows

Just saw this article on gamasutra, very interesting and funny read for anyone considering starting their own studio

I'm really looking forward to this one, despite it being an EA game.

That's awesome pomperi, I really dig the texture!

That brick wall texture they are using everywhere is really really bad

Game looks outdated indeed, just hope the gameplay is fun. No PC version btw?

Awesome!!

Thanks guys.

I updated the first post with credits!

That's an awesome trailer, but the lighting looks very dull in most of places!

I got mixed feelings with this. The environments look gorgeous and epic, I really like the colors and art direction. Everything else however, specially the characters, look a bit "Final Fantasy'ish" and god how I hate those games...

Anyways, looking forward to it!

I'm with James: we are hardcore and can never get enough of this. I can see myself working full-time 40 hours a week and then going home to work on mods or personal projects.

Awesome. The only thing that annoys me is that skeleton, I don't think it would be in such a good shape after a few hundred years.
