it's an article over at IGN however you have to subscribe to ign insider before you can read it. However you can get a 7 day trail for free but you need to give them you credit card details (works in a similar way to those free 1 month trail of telstra bigpond. You sign up with your details and after the month is up they start billing you unless you cancel.)
Anyways i thought i would put it up here in case anyone is interested enough to sign up.
There is suppossed to be a whole series of these articles focusing on every job in the industry
we break down industry jobs as widely different as programmer and producer to games journalist and public relations expert. We describe the duties and pay scales of each position, the background requirements and prerequisites, and some of the various paths actual professionals in these fields have taken to reach the positions they're in today
It is infact ants who are the true rulers of this world!!!

Oh Gaffer, I feel your pain. Except I didn't get into Irrational. @:-) Was hoping to get back upto good ol' Qld this year, but no uni offers. Mebbe in the February round... that or a game dev decides I'm worthy. One or t'other. @:-D

a lot of ex employees have been treated badly, a *LOT* of people left auran, ancient history, but pandemic was started by just about the entire dark reign team who quit auran... it goes on, and on. but i guess, if you want to work on train games, then go for it eh? :)

Oh, that's just a list of which developer's profiles and games are getting viewed the most on the site... nothing to do with which developer people most want to work for. [:)]

You should try Battlefield 1942. There is one version where you can spawn with LOTS of bots. Lots of men in uniforms and plenty of legs to go around?! And there's planes... Mile High Club?
- Rather fitting that this topic has a folder with a flame....
