A Career In Games??? Say It Isn't So!!!

Planning For The Future...

Yeah, I kinda realized something that I should've a long time ago this weekend: I want to have a career associated with games:lol:.  After years of changing my mind with other possible jobs that I never really thought "Why would I want to do this".  I've been trying to plan out my school courses schedule to incorporate with this decision*better to plan ahead:wink:* and I've basically came down with two possible career choices.

Game Designer

Not all that kind of technical stuff *numbers make my head hurt:P* but kinda like a Writer or maybe a Lead Designer.  Writing because I always come up with sort of fantastic storys for writing prompts in my English classes; and I love to tell stories:lol:. 

Lead Designer kinda for the same reasons as a Writer, but then I can make all of the major decisions.  See a vision or idea all the way through to the end.  Maybe it will be the next Gears of War; or disappoint like Superman 64.  I love the feeling of making people feel happy and totally satisified with what they got in the end and creating a rewarding experience that they'll remember for a while:D.

Or maybe....

Game Retailer

Yeah, I know there's an EB Games, Gamestop, etc.; but I think it would be pretty cool to start my own business in this kind of market.  Kinda be in charge of my own environment rather than listen to the corporate leaders:roll:. 

So, what would be the kind of courses that would help me out in to fulfill my idealistic future:D??? 

Much thanks to readers:wink:
