Ok, that ^ is my ambition. Now I need to know what subject I should focus on and what things I should know in order to full fill my dream. Any help would be appreciated :)
Answer
Hmm... I don't know your age but I'll start with High School:
High School
- As much math as you can learn (By senior, you should be at Calculus Level or Higher)
- Physics (Optional, but it will help you with inputting the equations when scripting in codes)
- Computer Science courses or Computer Art with those 3D models or what not.
College
- Calculus or higher
This really depends now. Do you want to work with 3D models? Go for Video Game Design / Computer Graphic Designer. Want to be technical and make the best simulations with graphics and when things work in the game? Take Computer Programming.
If you want to really boost yourself now, the key word here is "Flash". Try learning some Macromedia Flash. Google and try to make your first game with tutorials and everything. Also, look at some of the good games on Flash through Newgrounds and see why those flash games were good. You can look at some tutorials there as well in Flash.
Good luck boy, I'll either go to this field or Computer Engineer.

Cheap Gaming Computer?
Ethan b
Ok well here it is, my budget Id rather get it as cheap as i can while still being lag free on my games, the games I plan on paying are - possibilites, Guild wars 2, World of Warcraft, Lord of the rings online, Rift. I don't need to play these games on max settings. i also have NO experience in graphics cards or any of that stuff, i don't have much knowledge on computers. not possible for me to "build" 1 because i assume that's more expensive and - no knowledge of computers or equipment i would even have to buy. i know Alienware is a company that makes gaming computers, but im not sure on a decision. My budget is questionable but i would like to keep it between the $300-600 range
Answer
Building your own gaming computer is actually much much cheaper than buying a pre assembled unit. I'm in the process of building a 1400 dollar system that would cost 2k plus from a retailer. If building one or having an experienced friend build one wouldnt work, look online at www.newegg.com. They have some decent pre assembled gaming computers. Graphics cards in gaming computers are as important if not more, than the cpu speed.whether you choose ATI or NVIDIA graphics cards is a matter of personal preference. I've always favored nvidia, but ive seen good results from using ATI cards as well.

any of these would meet your needs perfectly fine, and would continue to do so for a few years.
