Create videogames. You asked this on a website that i frequent cause of video games. So yea, id say video game designer. I tell that to my friends and they laugh. They want to be engineers. Fuck that. Video games are WAYY better
Prepare for programming hell D:

I wanted to do that, then I got a job programming C# (my preferred language) and hated being in an office all day. Later I got a job just making websites, I hated that one too. But I just didn't like programming for someone else. If you are doing something you truly love (like building a video game) go all out man, pick up some books on C and C++, and master that shit.
Thanks man. I do have a book on C++ and ive been working on getting books for C# and Java. I am just trying to learn ALL languages. Trust me. Computers are my love, so programming for someone else is just a money gainer till I make my own video games. But yea i agree that making websites and so on will be annoying for the time being.

I want to sort of be a game designer, but I'm already a qualified electronic engineer, so bring on the programming.

I sort of want to work developing the next generation of gaming like AI...

Actually, fuck that. I want to be a rock star.

Not to brag but my dad is the bassist in the band Built to Spill. He became a rockstar (well, not coke snortin', fuck every girl in every state but he's a successful musician) by pure luck. He spent his days at a farm 6 miles away from town with only a guitar, bass, and a carton of smokes. He never took lessons, he dove into all the highschool bands he could. Eventually he joined up with an old highschool buddy to form Built to Spill back in 1993 (or 4...I don't know I was like 3 at the time).

So for all you rockstars, practice hard and stay away from music when you want to compose your own. Sometimes inspiration turns into copyright infringement.

Does your dad's band need a new guitarist?

I think my game programming option is a little more feasible anyway.

Games developer or possibly games programmer, which is why I'm studying Maths with an elective this year in Computer Programming, and also what I'm aiming for as an actual career.

forum mod. can you imagine actually geting paid to read this stuff?
blizzard would be my preference, i'm pretty sure they are required to play, and on roleplay servers at that.
