Just wondering if anyone works in the computer gaming industry in any position?

If so would you mind just giving me a brief overview of what its like?

Thanks.

Thank you for all the replies. I've heard a lot about it being a tough industry but it's great to have some first hand responses.

I've got a huge passion for gaming and I'm not a money driven person so the lack of a good wage and long hours doesn't put me off.

I'd be more interested in the world building and level design area, but heading done any other route wouldn't put me off as long as I get my foot in the door.

So what type of courses would you take to help you in the direction?

Thanks

Guys please try and keep this on topic, me and I'm guessing a few others are interested in peoples experiences and feedback.

Try and keep it friendly.
