I'm looking into CS as well. Probably going to take an intro class in my Spring Semester and see if I like it. yeh I got the same feeling. Its just so "if you love games then you'll LOVE doing this", which may or may not be true, but I'd like a more solid presentation | ||

Probably going to take an intro class in my Spring Semester and see if I like it. yeah "game design" seems like a scam to take money from people who like video games but don't want to be programmers or artists. Video game companies hire people who are experienced at programming and/or computer animation, and occasionally they'll give them a job as designers. They don't need people with a degree in game design. | ||

"Game Design" degree doesn't make you any more qualified in a field than someone with for example CS experience if you are working on game code. Good example of a Game Design program for those who may be interested in what it comprises: http://businessandit.uoit.ca/EN/main/96618/140839/141093/game_dev_program_map.html | ||
