I agree with Kwramm, i've heard many good things about FH Hagenberg. I would definitely stay away from the Games Academy in Germany though. I had the chance to talk to some students from there at GDC Europe and they told me that they all regretted going there. Their lectures are way too general to actually help you out.…
Yeah the thing about most people who have never been here to the states is that everyone still thinks this is the land of dreams and opportunity. I'm not saying that there arent jobs here, or that it's the worst place in the world, it's just not as good as it used to be. They still hold us in a the same light we were held…
Whilst I agree with the general sentiment here. Though from my experience freelancing a bit for a more than salubrious paying gig I've just jagged recently, I'd also throw into the mix an element of chance. Whereas particular stuff I had uploaded on various WIP boards got eyeballed by someone of note who was intrigued…
thanks, Gilgamesh ... just now tried it on 2010 64-bit with no alterations (fresh install) and it still pops the 'select polygonal face(s) or object first' message and goes into 'cut faces tool'. I'm either doing something totally alien or my 'puter has issues, but here's my process just now: -open Maya 64-bit (fresh, no…
Honestly Im almost finished my interactive media degree and Ive learnt alot more from forums like this than from the university.

The game is a 3D stealth anime style game about a 24 year old woman who one day found her brother shot in the head when coming back from work. She then decides to…

I have been reading/hearing a bunch of negative things about the game industry on here and other sites recently. For the past few years I have been looking forward to graduating so I could finally get to do what I have always wanted, to work on a game. All I want, is to be able to make awesome things and provide a means…

For portfolio? Probably not no, not sure why it would? For a job, i'd wager it plays a bigger role. I say this as someone who is looking to land my first job, sent 50+ applications already. I see ''software proficiency in : Maya '' Like you said also a mix of knowing Blender/Maya/3DSMAX will do just fine in other job…
