Game Cultures - Fresher

Wow, it's been a long time since I've been on here and I have to be honest I kind of missed it. But I'm back now and for a very long time...let me update you...I try to keep this brief.


Since I've been gone, I have passed my 'Game development' BTEC at 'College of Haringey Enfield and North East London' and progressed to 'London South-bank Univerisity' where I am currently studying for degree in 'Game Cultures'. I'm so excited with not just the fact that I made it to uni and passed my maths, which I struggle with but the fact that I have so much great things to look forward to learning about the games industry all around and that if I work hard enough I will get where I want!
So that being said this blog will pretty much turn into my developer diary for uni, it has to be done as part of our modules and I want to do it for me as well as giving you guys a chance to see, comment and criticize my work!

What to expect: well a variety of me showing off work I'm proud of and a lot of me stressing out! Alot of a 'Noob Learning programming', art work, 3D work and sound design and don't forget the odd theory essays and vodcasts.


So now that's out the way next subject is juts a little update on the gaming side..like the actual playing not developing..

I built (I say built but all I managed was to put the CPU in the motherboard and my boyfriend and his brother did the rest..) a shiny beautiful BF3 playing kinda beast PC.. It cost a bit more then expected but it was worth it and I'm happy. I haven't been on my Xbox to much recently although I did play some Gears of war 3 and games like Halo:Reach and AC:Brothehood over the summer. Recently though I have decided to get into PC gaming and I must say I'm thoroughly enjoying it, although I struggle sometimes getting used to KB+Mouse.
Unfortunately I have really had time to play games and get a commentary together for my YouTube channel, yes I have been slacking guys, I'm sorry.

And how can I forget! I finally got a Job at Game, after trying for about 2 years to get hired there I successfully passed my interview and have been hired for Christmas temp, so now I study games, blog games and play games..oh what a life haha.

Any ways here are some pictures to ad some colour to this post and ill be back.. :D
