Hey, thanks for all of your responses guys. Sorry I haven't responded to the thread in a while. I am a Christian, to whoever asked that question (I can't remember), so yea, a lot of violent games are no go's for me.

Film would be a cool industry to work in, I loved the behind the scenes info on the Star Wars DVD showing how 3D designers created Mustafar, but one has to be really superb at his work to get into that field, doesnt he?

About studios such as ones that make only sports games or games in similar nature to those that the Nintendo in-game studios creates, those would probably be the kind of studios that I would like to get into, but of course there's location and availability of positions to think of.

Alas, I have to head out now, but I look forward to anyone who can respond further, and thank everyone for all of the great info you've posted so far.
