| Gaming industry! Sweet! I'll be out of school with my bachelor of science by then!
Game and Simulation programming is such a sweet major!!
I'm actually less concerned about the money thing and more focused on actually getting a job in the gaming industry but if profits will be strong like this then jobs should be plentiful.

The amusing thing is that most amazing games are made by smaller companies, and then they're ruined by the big gaming conglomerate that buys them up and starts pumping out crap while firing as much of the creative staff as they can.
Ie: Westwood, Bioware etc being bought up by EA. EA has actually admitted they made a mistake by doing that sort of thing in the past, so I'm hopeful as far as the future goes. |

| I totally agree. I'd really like to work for Valve. I think they're one of the few cmpanies dong it right. If that doesn't work with the way content is being distributed these days I can see myself doing my own indie thing. Just imagine how well purchase games in 2012. Steam has hundreds of games, you've got the app store on the iphone, wii ware. This is just the start for great indie games making it in the scene. |

Is StarCraft 2 ever going to come out Activision, err I mean Blizz? There is still no release date and it's not even in beta yet. The gaming industry is too slow to release good games!

it is generally blizzard that is very slow, but considering every major release has been a smashing hit their parent company lets em do their own thing(never mind that WoW rakes in 100+ million a month).
