My name is Abhinav Kumar and I am a current bio major in the premed program. I am attending this video game class because I have been interested in the field of video games for many years now. I own all of the current generation of video games and I am one of the many people who frequent sites such as ign and gamespot. I also frequent the news blogger site Joystiq that has gained popularity for breaking video game news before anyone else. While I am interested in Biology I am interested in the media and would love a job in game production even though I have no art or programming skills to my name. I would be more interested in the production or producing of games. I do not know if any colleges offer any classes in this field but taking a class on video games looked like a good place to start if I was going to change majors. I am also interested in many of the theories and ideas discussed in this class such as the structures of MMORPGS and the history of video games. Currently I am playing World of Warcraft and am waiting for Halo 3 and other big games from the winter season. Here’s a picture of me and here is the profile of my world of warcraft character (my rogue named Abhinav.) Well thats all for that this post, off to the World Of Warcraft i go.

Hi Abhinav,
From our talk last week, you mentioned that you enjoy playing video games and you also mentioned that you play religiously. Well, I am not a gamer and I haven't played any video games in years. However if I was given the chance and the opportunity I think I would devote my time to playing as well. I also find the field interesting. Growing up, I believe that people who played video games were very immature and they were afraid of growing. Well, I have only been in the class about two weeks already and I have come across people who are far from what I used to believe. So, I too look forward to learning new things about the gaming industry (both from the gamer's prospective and the creator's prospective).
