Video Game Jobs: Which Career is Right For You?
Have you ever considered getting a video game job? Interested in the video game industry? You aren’t alone. A lot of gamers are looking to turn their passions into a long lasting career, and with good reason.
If you love games then you can consider becoming a video game designer. Video game designers are the people that come up with the ideas for video games, of course. If you are a game designer you will be under the pressure to produce ideas that result in a enjoyable gaming experience, great sales, and rave industry reviews. It is no doubt a job and an important one but at the same time you can have a fantastic career and experiences in this industry!
Yes, the pressure is real but you will also love the fact that you will be getting paid to come up with ideas for games. As a casual gamer, I constantly have ideas that I think could make games better. I know that you as a gamer are no different. Why not get paid for your crazy ideas? Think a platformer would be better as a fighting game? Think RPGs need something better than turn based fighting? You can be the change the industry needs.
Other jobs include level design, audio engineering, animation, graphic design, and scripting. If you are a lover of games then I highly suggest you seek out new ways to turn your passion into a long lasting, great, fun career. So go ahead and check out the industry and see what it has to offer!

is fable 2 worth buying for someone who rarely plays RPG games?
i rarely play Fantasy/RPG games, but fable 2 looks interesting. i like the idea on how you can have a family, a dog by your side, and just explore. is the game worth buying? what are the pros and cons? after beating the story, can you still explore, and do jobs, etc?
Fable 2 is a fantastic game but seeing how you rarely play RPG games you might find it a tad boring after a few hours of play.
when you finish the game you can still continue to do jobs and explore but by the time you finish the game probably have explored every map. but the game dose have replay value because there are a lot of decisions you have to make in the game that will effect how things will happen.
depending on what you like to do in games will effect how much you will like fable 2, if you like to play first person shooters like halo and call of duty 4 you probably get board with the combat system is fable 2 (button mashing). so watch some of the game play videos on you tube to help make up your mind
