omg the best day of my life EVER!!!!!

[ra1n]

Ok today is the best day of my life EVER !!!!!!
I got to went for a tour of Ensemble Studios, the make of age of empire. Today it was amazing, hi-tech, cool lighting, 2 full size kitchen packed with food, a major game room with ping-pong 360 computers arcade, 2 test area. I mean that place is like heaven for any gamer. And whats really cool is that at this very moment they're working on halo wars and I gotta tell you the graphics looks great!! They got all these pictures on the wall for inspiration. A life-size master chief was cool too What was really cool but sad was Titan which was supposed to be an MMORPG like halo, with halo characters, universe and everything else. Jeff the guy that runs ensemble studios said that Titan got cut because it was going to cost 100 million to make and so Microsoft cut their loses after 3 years and 10 million dollars. So to put it short, THAT PLACE IS TOTALLY WICKED!!!!! And guess what I was only one not belonging to a family member that ever got to visit the place. All thanks to my mom's client who is Jeff's neighbor and invited me ( cause I'm lovable >_>) All in all, this day fully helped me decided on my future. One day thats gonna be me. Wish I could take pics but camera is broken and pics aren't allowed anyway. Oh, and hush hush on the titan ._.

Sounds pretty cool. Just yesterday my friend went on a job shadow to a game production place here in Minnesota and he told me a few of the games he seen on the developers screens as they walked by. He even said there was a few gears of war 2 things laying on a few of their desks! Now I want to go!!!

sounds cool
to bad they have to devote their time to Halo Wars when they could be making another AOE instead
slap a Halo label on anything and the quality doesn't need to be there to sell i guess...
anyways, screw any RTC that isn't Starcraft or Starcraft 2... LOL

Man that sounds tight doing that but sitting at a screen for long periods of time just entering strings of code is appealing yes, but for how long? Im sure many people love doing that but some don't. The ADD that they thought they never had will kick in
