Data-Hawk
I have no strings on me.
OK cool. Do you work with/know a lot of people with that degree?
Me, personally no. But I've been following the game development community for a while and that type of programming *REALLY* differs from your normal programming job( where you're mostly retrieving-data / do something with data / store data ).
I recommend hitting up Nvidia website and looking at a couple of their whitepapers and videos. You'll see that the degree you are going after fits with the type of stuff they are doing, as they do alot more than just "Gaming".
or places like this ( Microsoft Research - Turning Ideas into Reality ).
my dream job is to work @ places like this
