Es un video en ingles pero es buenisimo:

Esto se mereceria una chincheta :p

[TiRSO]

Buenísimo :P Lo voy a poner en mi blogrrrr!

[matriax]

Solo ha faltado que hablara de los MMORPGS y lo clava

[fjfnaranjo]

Lo mejor es lo de las figuritas de la mesa xD

Si me lo movéis al foro de Industria y mercado le pongo una chincheta y le agrego [LA REALIDAD] al título.

Viva al desarrollo independiente!

[[EX3]]

LOL no lo habia visto xDDD Lastima que no lo haya con subtitulos, mucha gente no va a cogerle el punto, sobre todo los novatos :P

Esto se mereceria una chincheta :p

Puesta, esto resulta hasta constructivo e ilustrativo xD

Salu2...

[shephiroth]

Suena mal decirlo en el 2011, pero alguien se anima a subtitularlo???  >:D >:D 0:-)

[fjfnaranjo]

Es que es bastante largo.

Yo me animo si me ayuda alguien (yo lo transcribo y el otro lo traduce, usando el CC de youtube).

[Mars Attacks]

Deja la transcripción por aquí y el otro paso se hará solo :)

[fjfnaranjo]

Pues la auto-transcripción de youtube lo hace genial, se ve que por la voz sintetizada. Sólo ha cometido algún errorcillo no crítico.

[tamat]

muy bueno, ha ha ha

[zunou]

Pobre robot de carton XD .... y pobre robot amarillo también.

[fjfnaranjo]

¿Creéis que el robot amarillo se llamara "Stratos"?

:P

[Mars Attacks]

Se me olvidaba que traduje los textos el otro día para ponerlo en la charla del meetingamers. Por si a alguien le interesa (está sin pulir y puede haber algún pequeño error o no tener una sincronización perfectamente ajustada):

<font color="#ffffdd">La industria del videojuego es un negocio.</font>

6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Su principal objetivo es vender productos
a tanta gente como sea posible.</font>

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,000

innovación a los videojuegos.</font>

no existe para ser creativa.
Existe para vender productos en tiendas.</font>

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,000
<font color="#ffffdd">La mayor parte de los compradores
no quieren innovación.</font>

10
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Quieren un juego en el que
puedan disparar a robots nazis,
pokemons, y saltar en plataformas.</font>

11
00:00:42,500 --> 00:00:47,500
<font color="#ffdddd">La industria del videojuego es un lugar
divertido para trabajar. Lo leí en "Wired".</font>

12
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:51,000
<font color="#ffdddd">He oído que puedes tener muñequitos
en tu puesto de trabajo.</font>

13
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Has oído algo sobre el estrés constante
y las semanas de 80 horas de trabajo?</font>

14
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000
<font color="#ffdddd">He oído que te dan
bebida y snacks gratis.</font>

15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Eso es porque es lo que vas a comer.
Tus jefes no te dejarán volver a casa.</font>

16
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,500
<font color="#ffdddd">No me importa.
La industria del videojuego
es un lugar guay para trabajar.</font>

17
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:09,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Vas a empezar con un sueldo bajísimo.</font>

18
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Si el juego en el que trabajas no
vende bien, probablemente te despedirán.</font>

19
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
<font color="#ffdddd">No me importa. Soy joven.</font>

20
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Desarrollar juegos no es
todo diversión y juego.
El trabajo suele ser muy difícil y tedioso.</font>

21
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Tengo lo que se necesita.</font>

22
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:27,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Tienes experiencia en
modelado y animación?</font>

23
00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:28,500
<font color="#ffdddd">No.</font>

24
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Sabes programar?</font>

25
00:01:33,500 --> 00:01:34,500
<font color="#ffdddd">No.</font>

26
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Entonces, ¿qué ofreces?</font>

27
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Tengo una idea para un juego.</font>

28
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:42,500
<font color="#ffffdd">No puedes simplemente decir que
tienes una idea de juego y</font>

29
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:46,000
<font color="#ffffdd">esperar que te ofrezcan un puesto
de diseñador de juegos en la industria.</font>

30
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,000
<font color="#ffdddd">¡Pero mi idea es genial!</font>

31
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,500
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Cuál es tu idea?</font>

32
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,500
<font color="#ffdddd">No te lo puedo decir. Me la robarías.</font>

33
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,500
<font color="#ffffdd">No puedes esperar que alguien
te contrate porque tú digas
que tienes una buena idea.</font>

34
00:01:59,500 --> 00:02:04,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Además, todo el mundo tiene ideas.
A nadie le importa la tuya.</font>

35
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:06,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Mi idea es única.</font>

36
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Bueno, cuéntame algo sobre tu idea.</font>

37
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:13,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Ok. Transcurre en el año 2324.</font>

38
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Los humanos han descubierto un
artefacto alienígena en el planeta Zylon.</font>

39
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Cuando los científicos activan el
artefacto, libera un extraño campo</font>

40
00:02:21,500 --> 00:02:24,500
<font color="#ffdddd">que comienza a convertir
a los colonos en monstruos.</font>

41
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:27,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Sólo el genéticamente
modificado y alto secreto...</font>

42
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:34,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Vale, para. Primero, eso no es una
idea de juego: es una historia.</font>

43
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Segundo, es la historia
más poco original que he oído jamás.</font>

44
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Pero si aún no te he contado
lo de los zombies,</font>

45
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,500
<font color="#ffdddd">o que el jugador es realmente un ninja criogénicamente congelado por aliens</font>

46
00:02:45,500 --> 00:02:50,500
<font color="#ffdddd">en el siglo 12. O que también
hay que hackear ordenadores.</font>

47
00:02:50,500 --> 00:02:56,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Ahora estás cogiendo ideas
no originales y mezclándolas con
otras ideas no originales.</font>

48
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Eso no es original,
y todavía es sólo una historia.</font>

49
00:03:00,500 --> 00:03:05,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Será un FPS, excepto porque tienes
una pistola que cambia la gravedad.</font>

50
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Por qué crees que será divertido?</font>

51
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:14,000
<font color="#ffdddd">¡La inteligencia artificial será mejor
que la de cualquier juego comercial!
Usará redes neuronales.</font>

52
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿De verdad sabes lo que significa,
o sólo estás usando palabras que has oído?</font>

53
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Podrás hacer que el tiempo corra
hacia atrás, y será un MMORPG.</font>

54
00:03:24,500 --> 00:03:26,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Eso ni siquiera es factible.</font>

55
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:29,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Empezaré desde la base.
Estoy deseando aprender.</font>

56
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:31,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Qué se te daba bien en la escuela?</font>

57
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,000
<font color="#ffdddd">No lo sé. Las suspendía todas.</font>

58
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:38,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Me pasaba el tiempo con los videojuegos.</font>

59
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Entonces se te dan bien?</font>

60
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:47,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Sí. Una vez jugué al Starcraft
durante 32 horas seguidas.
Mis riñones casi colapsan.</font>

61
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Quizá podrías ser un tester.</font>

62
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,000
<font color="#ffdddd">¡Eso sería genial!</font>

63
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:56,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Puedo jugar a juegos todo el día
y darles ideas a los diseñadores
que los haga mejores.</font>

64
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,000
<font color="#ffffdd">No jugarías a juegos.
Jugarías sólo a un juego.</font>

65
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:01,500
<font color="#ffdddd">No me importa.</font>

66
00:04:01,500 --> 00:04:06,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Y no darías ideas a nadie.
Sólo buscarías fallos de programación.</font>

67
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
<font color="#ffdddd">No me importa.</font>

68
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Rejugarás el mismo nivel una y otra
vez, día tras días, hasta que
odies su aspecto.</font>

69
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000
<font color="#ffdddd">No me importa.
Quiero ser parte del equipo.</font>

70
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Los programadores te despreciarán
por encontrarles fallos.</font>

71
00:04:20,500 --> 00:04:24,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Cada vez que arreglen uno,
cometerán nuevos errores</font>

72
00:04:24,500 --> 00:04:28,000
<font color="#ffffdd">y tendrás que seguir jugando
todo el día para encontrarlos.</font>

73
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Tus ojos sangrarán
y odiarás el juego con toda tu alma.</font>

74
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:34,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Nada puede disminuir mi
pasión por los videojuegos.</font>

75
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Ni siquiera estarás testando
un buen juego.</font>

76
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Probarás "La aventura
submarina de Barbie".</font>

77
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Te pagarán menos que a
un empleado de McDonalds.</font>

78
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Trabajarás en un cubículo.
Nadie hablará contigo.</font>

79
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Sé que seré un gran diseñador de juegos.
Me ganaré el puesto y ascenderé.</font>

80
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Puede no ser tan fácil
como te parece que es.</font>

81
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Trabajaré en una gran compañía,
como Rock Star.</font>

82
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Aprenderé de los mejores, y
entonces cumpliré mi sueño de ser
diseñador de videojuegos.</font>

83
00:05:03,500 --> 00:05:08,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Sabes cuánta gente hizo falta
para desarrollar el GTA4?</font>

84
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Serás uno de los mil
desarrolladores de la empresa
en la que todos quieren estar.</font>

85
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Si fueras un artista,
gorilearías texturas de llantas.</font>

86
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:24,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Si fueras un programador,
escribirías el código que determina
la longitud de las camisetas.</font>

87
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Entonces entraré en una empresa joven.</font>

88
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:30,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Donde no tendrán inversión y tendrás
que trabajar incluso más duro</font>

89
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:37,000
<font color="#ffffdd">que en la empresa grande, porque ningún publisher querrá un juego original de un estudio sin éxito probado.</font>

90
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:44,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Estaréis forzados a hacer juegos de Bob Esponja. Muchas pequeñas compañías no duran mucho.</font>

91
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Quiero trabajar en la
industria del videojuego.</font>

92
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Qué te gusta hacer en tu tiempo libre?</font>

93
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Me gusta jugar a videojuegos</font>

94
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Así que piensas pasar doce horas al día delante de un videojuego</font>

95
00:05:56,500 --> 00:05:59,500
<font color="#ffffdd">y luego llegar a casa
y jugar a más videojuegos</font>

96
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:00,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Sí.</font>

97
00:06:00,500 --> 00:06:03,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Piensas tener amigos?</font>

98
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Seré amigo de mis compañeros.
Todos somos gamers.</font>

99
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Piensas tener novia?</font>

100
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Claro que sí. Necesitaré una chica gamer.</font>

101
00:06:12,500 --> 00:06:17,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿A pesar de que la mayor parte
de la gente con la que salgas sean
otros hombres gamers solteros?</font>

102
00:06:17,500 --> 00:06:20,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Parece un gran plan.</font>

103
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Los videojuegos son mi pasión.</font>

104
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:28,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Será así cuando tengas 35?
¿Te seguirán importando tanto los
elfos oscuros y los marines espaciales?</font>

105
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,000
<font color="#ffffdd">¿Y si tienes familia y quieres
pasar más tiempo con ella?</font>

106
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Seguro que mi jefe lo entenderá.</font>

107
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Tu jefe quiere el juego
a la venta antes de Navidad.</font>

108
00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:42,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Todos en tu equipo trabajarán
hasta medianoche.</font>

109
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Seré un valorado diseñador de juegos.</font>

110
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Tu jefe recibirá 15
currículums al día de gente</font>

111
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:53,000
<font color="#ffffdd">que piensa que la industria del juego
es un lugar increíblemente divertido
para trabajar, como tú ahora.</font>

112
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,000
<font color="#ffdddd">No me importa.
La gente respetará mi creatividad.</font>

113
00:06:57,000 -->00:07:02,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Incluso si fueras un desarrollador
de juegos veterano, a nadie le
importará tu creatividad,</font>

114
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,000
<font color="#ffffdd">a menos que seas uno de los diez
mejores diseñadores de la industria.</font>

115
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:11,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Los publishers quieren juegos
basados en licencias y franquicias
porque son los que venden.</font>

116
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:18,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Incluso cuando son muy antiguos.
¿Por qué crees que aún hay juegos
de Super Mario Bros</font>

117
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,000
<font color="#ffffdd">cuando el primero de ellos salió
antes de que tú nacieras?</font>

118
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,000
<font color="#ffdddd">¡Pero quiero trabajar en la
industria del videojuego!</font>

119
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:27,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Muy bien. Pues aquí está tu mando.</font>

220
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:30,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Encontrarás tu cubículo en el sótano.</font>

221
00:07:30,500 --> 00:07:33,500
<font color="#ffffdd">La máquina de café está a la derecha.</font>

222
00:07:33,500 --> 00:07:36,000

<font color="#ffffdd">Its main focus is to sell products
to as many people as possible.</font>

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I want to bring my creativity and
innovation to video games.</font>

8
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:33,000
<font color="#ffffdd">The video game industry
does not exist to be creative.
It exists to sell products at Wal-mart.</font>

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Most shoppers at Wal-mart
do not want innovation.</font>

10
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,000
<font color="#ffffdd">They want a game that lets them
shoot robot nazis and pokemons
and jump on platforms.</font>

11
00:00:42,500 --> 00:00:47,500
<font color="#ffdddd">The video game industry is a
fun place to work. I read it in Wired.</font>

12
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:51,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I've heard that you can keep
action figures on your desk.</font>

13
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Have you heard about
the constant stress and the
eighty hours work weeks?</font>

14
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I've heard that you get
free soda and snacks.</font>

15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,000
<font color="#ffffdd">That's because that's what you
eat for dinner. Your employers
don't want you to go home.</font>

16
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I don't care. The game industry
is a cool place to work.</font>

17
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:09,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You will make a low starting salary.</font>

18
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,500
<font color="#ffffdd">If the game you worked on
doesn't sell you will probably
get laid off.</font>

19
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I don't care. I'm young.</font>

20
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Game development is not all
fun and games. The work can be
very difficult and tedious.</font>

21
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I know I have what it takes.</font>

22
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:27,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Do you have experience on computer modelling and animation?</font>

23
00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:28,500
<font color="#ffdddd">No.</font>

24
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Do you know how to program computers?</font>

25
00:01:33,500 --> 00:01:34,500
<font color="#ffdddd">No.</font>

26
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Then, what can you do?</font>

27
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I have an idea for a game.</font>

28
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:42,500
<font color="#ffffdd">You cannot just tell people
you have a game idea and</font>

29
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:46,000
<font color="#ffffdd">expect to get a job in the industry
as a game designer.</font>

30
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,000
<font color="#ffdddd">But my idea is great!</font>

31
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,500
<font color="#ffffdd">What is your idea?</font>

32
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I can't tell you. You might steal it.</font>

33
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,500
<font color="#ffffdd">You cannot just expect someone
to hire you because you say
you have a good idea.</font>

34
00:01:59,500 --> 00:02:04,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Besides, everyone has game ideas.
Nobody cares about yours.</font>

35
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:06,000
<font color="#ffdddd">My idea is unique.</font>

36
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Well, tell me a little about your idea.</font>

37
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:13,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Ok. It's set in the year 2324.</font>

38
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Humans have discovered an
alien artifact on the planet Zylon.</font>

39
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,500
<font color="#ffdddd">When scientist activate the artifact
it releases a strange field</font>

40
00:02:21,500 --> 00:02:24,500
<font color="#ffdddd">that begins to turn everyone
in the colony into monsters.</font>

41
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:27,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Only a top-secret genetically enhanced...</font>

42
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:34,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Ok, stop. First of all, that is not
a game idea; it is only a story.</font>

43
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Second of all, that is
the most unnoriginal story ever.</font>

44
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
<font color="#ffdddd">But I haven't told you about the zombies,</font>

45
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,500
<font color="#ffdddd">or how the player is actually a ninja who was criogenically frozen by aliens</font>

46
00:02:45,500 --> 00:02:50,500
<font color="#ffdddd">in the 12th century. Or how you need to hack into computer systems too.</font>

47
00:02:50,500 --> 00:02:56,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Now you are just taking
an unnoriginal idea and mixing it
with other unnoriginal ideas.</font>

48
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000
<font color="#ffffdd">That is not original,
and it is still only a story.</font>

49
00:03:00,500 --> 00:03:05,000
<font color="#ffdddd">It will be a FPS, except you
have a gun that changes gravity.</font>

50
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,000
<font color="#ffffdd">How do you know that that will be fun?</font>

51
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:14,000
<font color="#ffdddd">The artificial intelligence will be
better than any game on he market!
It will use neural networks.</font>

52
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Do you actually know what that means,
or are you just using
a buzzword you heard?</font>

53
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,500
<font color="#ffdddd">You'll be able to make time run
backwards, and it will be an MMORPG.</font>

54
00:03:24,500 --> 00:03:26,500
<font color="#ffffdd">That is not even feasible.</font>

55
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:29,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I'll start at the bottom.
I'm willing to learn.</font>

56
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:31,000
<font color="#ffffdd">What were you good at in school?</font>

57
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I don't know. I got D's
in all my classes.</font>

58
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:38,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I spent all my time playing video games.</font>

59
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,000
<font color="#ffffdd">So you're good at games?</font>

60
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:47,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Yes. I once played starcraft
for 32 hours straight.
My kidneys almost shutdowned.</font>

61
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Perhaps you could be a tester.</font>

62
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,000
<font color="#ffdddd">That would be so awesome!</font>

63
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:56,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I can play games all day and then
give the designers ideas on
how to make them better.</font>

64
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You would not be playing games.
You would be playing only one game.</font>

65
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:01,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I don't mind.</font>

66
00:04:01,500 --> 00:04:06,500
<font color="#ffffdd">And you won't be giving the designers
ideas. You'd only be looking
for programming bugs.</font>

67
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I don't mind.</font>

68
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,500
<font color="#ffffdd">You'll replay the same level over and
over, day after day, until
you hate the sight of it.</font>

69
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I don't mind.
I want to be a part of the team.</font>

70
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,500
<font color="#ffffdd">The programmers will despise you
for finding their bugs.</font>

71
00:04:20,500 --> 00:04:24,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Each time they fix a bug,
they will make new bugs</font>

72
00:04:24,500 --> 00:04:28,000
<font color="#ffffdd">and you will have to keep playing the game around the clock to find them.</font>

73
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Your eye balls will bleed
and you will hate the game
with all your heart.</font>

74
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:34,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Nothing can take away my love
for video games.</font>

75
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You will not even be testing
a good game.</font>

76
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You will be testing
"Barbie's Undersea Adventure".</font>

77
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You will be paid less
than a McDonalds employee.</font>

78
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You will work in a cubicle.
No one will talk to you.</font>

79
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I know I will be a great game designer.
I will pay my dues and then,
climb the ladder.</font>

80
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
<font color="#ffffdd">It might not be as easy
as you think it is.</font>

81
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I'll work in a great company,
like Rock Star.</font>

82
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I'll learn from the best, and
then I'll fulfill my dream of
becoming a video game designer.</font>

83
00:05:03,500 --> 00:05:08,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Do you have any idea of
how many people it took to make
Grand Theft Auto 4?</font>

84
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You will be one of the thousand
developers of the company
that everyone wants to work at.</font>

85
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,000
<font color="#ffffdd">If you were an artist, you will toil away painting hubcap textures.</font>

86
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:24,000
<font color="#ffffdd">If you were a programmer, your job
will be to write the code that models
the length of the game character shirts.</font>

87
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Then I will join a small startup.</font>

88
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:30,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Where you have minimal funding and will have to work your ass off even harder</font>

89
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:37,000
<font color="#ffffdd">than in the great company, because no publisher will take a chance on an original property from an unproven studio.</font>

90
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:44,000
<font color="#ffffdd">You will be forced to make sponge Bob squarepants titles. Most small companies don't last long.</font>

91
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,500
<font color="#ffdddd">I want to work in he video game industry.</font>

92
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000
<font color="#ffffdd">What do you like to do outside of work?</font>

93
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I like playing video games.</font>

94
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,500
<font color="#ffffdd">So, you plan to spend twelve hours a day staring at the video game</font>

95
00:05:56,500 --> 00:05:59,500
<font color="#ffffdd">and then come home
and play more video games.</font>

96
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:00,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Yes.</font>

97
00:06:00,500 --> 00:06:03,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Do you plan on having friends?</font>

98
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I will be friends with my co-workers.
We are all gamers.</font>

99
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Do you plan on having a girlfriend?</font>

100
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,500
<font color="#ffdddd">Yes, of course. I will need a girl gamer.</font>

101
00:06:12,500 --> 00:06:17,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Even though most of the people
you hang out with are other
single male gamers?</font>

102
00:06:17,500 --> 00:06:20,000
<font color="#ffffdd">That sounds like a great plan.</font>

103
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,000
<font color="#ffdddd">Video games are my passion.</font>

104
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:28,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Will this be true when you're 35?
Will you still care as much about
dark elves and space marines?</font>

105
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,000
<font color="#ffffdd">What if you have a family and want to spend more time with them?</font>

106
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I'm sure my boss will understand.</font>

107
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Your boss will want the game
shipped before Christmas.</font>

108
00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:42,000
<font color="#ffffdd"> Everyone else on your team will be working until midnight.</font>

109
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I will be a valuable game designer.</font>

110
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Your boss will receive 15
applications a day from people</font>

111
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:53,000
<font color="#ffffdd">who think the gaming industry
is an incredibly fun place to work
like you do now.</font>

112
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,000
<font color="#ffdddd">I don't care.
People will respect my creativity.</font>

113
00:06:57,000 -->00:07:02,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Even if you do become a veteran
game developer, nobody will care
about your creativity</font>

114
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,000
<font color="#ffffdd">unless you are one of the ten
best designers in the industry.</font>

115
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:11,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Publishers will want to make games
based on licenses and franchises
because those are what sells.</font>

116
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:18,000
<font color="#ffffdd">Even when they are completely stale.
Why do you think there are still
Super Mario Brothers' games</font>

117
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,000
<font color="#ffffdd">even thought the first one came out
there before you were born?</font>

118
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,000
<font color="#ffdddd">But I want to work in the
video game industry.</font>

119
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:27,500
<font color="#ffffdd">Very well. Then, here is you controller.</font>

220
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:30,500
<font color="#ffffdd">You will find your cubicle
in the basement.</font>

221
00:07:30,500 --> 00:07:33,500
<font color="#ffffdd">The "Mountain Dew" dispenser
is on the right.</font>

222
00:07:33,500 --> 00:07:36,000
<font color="#ffffdd">The Frito vendor is down the hall.</font>
