A friend of mine wants to be a programer; apparently (from what I know from him) that sort of thing is learned in college.
"There are 10 kinds of people who understand binary." A handshake to who ever gets the reference, and a hug to the one that gets the joke.
No. The joke is "There are 10 kinds of people, those that understand binary, and those that don't." It's funny because "10" is binary for "2" (base 2 system).
Take conputer science. It's fun and it's the firsts step to becomeing a programmer.
I've heard mixed advice on Computer aided drafting or design or other similar classes. They teach you to make 3d models so it might help with videogames, bus it's more for building and construction models. If you plan to be a 3d modeler of any kind (weapons designer, map designer, etc.), there are classes in college that are more...efficiant for learning how to do it.
If you like art, you should take some art classes and then Bungie could hire you as a concept artist, texture artist, etc. If you like writing stories, take english or writing classes and they could use you as a storyboard artist or writer. If you like internet forums and like being helpfull, you might eventually become a ninja. It's not a paying job at bungie, but they'll notice and respect you, which can't hurt in a job application.
If you do take computer science, you could iether be a programmer for bungie, or, if you go more towards web design programming, you could be a programmer on the web team and help manage Bungie.net.
That's the beauty of the videogame industry, tons of talanted people with a larg variety of skills each contributing their part to a final finished awsome product that makes millions of dollars in profit and millions of people play.
Heck, you could just become a proffesional waiter and work for Bungie as a snack goffer.
