Not when you have to bump into every wall in the game to make sure there aren't large clipping errors and that sort of thing.

Hell, I used to work at a video game store and the last thing i wanted to do when i got home was to play video games.

If you take something you do for fun and have to do silly things that aren't fun it would probably take away from your passion for it.

As for me, I would like to be a math teacher.

Producer and Programmer of Interactive Virtual Entertainment, aka video game designer/coder.

If not that, I hear pharmacology is a good field to go into. And I do love chemistry...

I'd love to be a professional illustrator/character artist for either a fighting game or an action game. RPG characters usually demand far more complex outfits than my feeble, anime- and game-infested imagination can think of.

That reminds me, I have to start drawing males again...

Remember that instead of playing the games you'd be painstakingly looking through everything and everywhere for bugs and glitches then carefully documenting them. Sounds like fun.
There's a certain type of gamer sensibility with the compulsion to break games, I can see game-testing appealing to these types.

I am a literature kind of guy. Anything that allows me to express myself and make people laugh.

I'm taking the road down the video game designer/programmer. And oh boy. It's gonna be a long road.

I will be a creator! (cookie for anyone who knows the reference)

Well I thought I wanted to do something in the computing area, but 3 years in and awaiting an onslaught of F's, I don't think thats going to work out. I'd love to design games though, reckon I could be the next tim schafer.

Dream job though? Rock star for sure, I am working on it, but its a long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll. A writer sounds good though, preferably a comedy writer, for a website or a tv show/web series etc. Music journalist would be good to though.

Now, how do I tell my parents I wasted 3 years and a shit load of their money with nothing to show for it, hmmmm.

Well, in reality, I want to be an electrical engineer. I like power...and I like to design things.

But if it involved sub-reality, or future, judging by how people view the next few years, I'd want to be a survivor of the wastelands, scavaging for food, supplies and equipment as I fight my way through the next great danger, be it a demonic-filled post apocalypic earth, or zombies, or anything like that...

ER nurse or head Mortician. Thought it'd be fun, and my entire family on my Dad's side has followed the medical field and I like that line of work so... Why not? :)
