Pretty fucking ludicrous IMO.

He should pick up actual guitar and spend that much time learning.

I kinda CBF people viewing that kind of game as a job because the there is no real learning curve - especially at first. If you can hit buttons, you can play. How fast you hit those buttons is a different story - but still, it's not like you can do anything original with it anyways.

Same, sort of.

Ended up being about the same age most of you assholes are now when I started doing mod BS for 4D stuff. I was going to a small college to get my basics done before transferring out to whatever other place I decided.

When summer rolled around I got invited to do that Secret Service game on AMP2 and ended up doing that and working a day job to see where it went. Ended up taking a job doing graphics at a publication and not returning to school, and getting asked to do Patriots whilst working on it, and then MMO work foolery that came along later.

So ATM I'm 25 1/2 years old and thinking about finally going some place to finish up my bs. The moral of the story is to stay in school.

Although if I do this then I won't be 18 like the other friendlies, which means I might be a useful fatty at school that has a car, can legally buy liquor and have my own apartment instead of shared housing bs, in whatever city\state I may migrate to, and people tell me I still don't really look older than average kids atm, so I can be undercover.

Maybe I'll find some chix who want drinks and will let me buy them some french fries

I wouldn't mind this kid so much if he hadn't dropped out of high school to lose to an asian chick who plays Unreal Tournament 3 more than Guitar Hero ;\
