that still had no idea about what a Singleton is or other elementary things
Heh... For the longest time I'd been coding with C++ and didn't know that one of the things I'd been doing was called a "Singleton"- I'd been using C++ from it's earliest of days (Hey, I was a programming language junkie- Awk, Icon, Snobol, Pascal, Modula, ADA, Forth, etc...). One should be careful with one's terminology and judging people by their knowledge or ignorance thereof. Singletons are from the "design pattern" crowd, which is a useful template for thinking in C++ or OO, but it's not the only useful one, mind, for C++ or OO- Booch had a few good ones as well, and there's a lot of others other than those two camps...
Yeah. Sorry about that. This tangent was my fault.
Game dev I'm sure won't my only talent. Linux server / IT administration is another, home theater assembly. I can build PS3's for a lot cheaper. There's a lot of options I can go with if I fail to get a grip in the industry, but I don't plan on failing though. They key I've always heard is to do something that no one else can, and then they can say "oh look, he does this, let's hire him so we can include that!" (Then again, that's contract work I'm sure).
Heh. Don't try to count the thread drifts on the Porting thread, or blood will shoot out your nose.
And now, back to your regularly scheduled topic...
I voted Maybe as once the game is out, I need to find out if I like the game & that it can run on my system specs (not sure on this one). How long it takes to come out doesn't matter to me. I'll simply look at it as another Linux game I can play.

Ah, it's k man, interesting subjects you brought into the thread. I myself want to get into the game industry too, and i dont plan on failing either.

I think that his remarks would indicate that thinking... Me, I will only play if it's on Wii, PS2, or Linux. I'm still fence-sitting on the PS3 and there's no way you could convince me to buy an X-Box/X-Box 360, new or used. If someone gave me one, it'd just get hacked up to be something clean other than it's original purpose, unable to boot titles.
