computer science . I thought I can study programing game . But problems comes . There is one

and a half years that I would leave my campus ,but until now I still don't know where to

start my dream . The school doesn't teach this skill . Can you figure out my problem ?

follows. It is a excellent university which is located in Shanghai , which has a better

chance of making game . There are many many gamedevelopment companys ,So the indusry is

more developed than in ohter city . Many friends , relatives , and teachers told me ShangHai

is hard city to live . But always I see this as a normal obstacle in my life , because I

want to pursue my dream . what do you think about my idea and plan ? can you evaluate it ?

Am I a little puerility ?

The 3rd question . I want to study some technology about game making or relative things .

. But there is two same majors in SJTU . one in College of Sfotware( I konw you were here 4

yeas ago) , the other is in College of Electronic Information Engineering and Electrical

Engineering . Which College will make me more closer to my dream ?

from your adherent , lookof

I graduated from the College of Electronic Information Engineering and Electrical Engineering instead of the College of Software. Though I believe the College of Software is more fit to video game industry.

But after all to get into the video game industry, the best way to do it is to make a game. Find passionate friends or students in the school you are going to attend and make a game together. That will take you far into the industry than attending any computer science classes. There's no short cut, learn how to make a game by yourself. That's how 99% of us started making video games.

I agree with need of more mature game.
Young gamers who played with Nintendo were grown up.
They require games adpated their interests before losing motivation of playing games.

The designers should study about adult novels and philosopy.
