yeah, i also wanted to be a game designer since in school but the industry is way too competetive .you must really be a programmer whiz to make any kind of impact in that area. well, i could still dream can't i........ In the arcade biz it isn't that competitive!! Only a handful of companiens little over a duzin of componies with SNKP and Capcom leading the way andof course Sammy! If u pursue yer dreams you will sky-rocket to succes, fame, glory and chicks, don't forget babes! Remember, hope dies last! I hope you know that get into the gaming biz, you have to demonstrate your skills by making your own games or something important. Schooling, programming, or art skills aren't enough by themselves. somehow, some way, my friend's cousin was able to make an exact clone all by herself, of the 1st frogger game that's on psx. ...though she almost failed because she left him invincible, but yeah
