For example, I have heard that Norton is very bad for gaming computers. Is this true?

I have Windows XP Media Center.
I have a Gateway Desktop featuring an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ if it matters.

What types of games does he want to run?

For $ 1100 and under you should easily be able to get a computer that has:
-6GB of RAM or more (8GB would be heaven for a gamer)
-Processor with a speed of at least 3.3MHz (such as the Intel Core i7)
-Good Graphics Card

Computers that are very popular with gamers now are Alienware

The engine that was used to create the foliage and forests in Avatar was the engine Bethesda Softworks used in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for forest and foliage. So I suppose, yes.

Git rid of Vista (resource hog). Go back to XP but you’d lose DirectX 10 support. Or wait until Windows 7 comes out later this year. I’ve been testing it and it is pretty light with resource usage.

Answer by Ryot
My knowledge of ITT is pretty limited, for one very good reason: ITT is *not* respected within the game industry. If you would like to get into game design, do not go to ITT. It will stunt your professional growth.

Careers in game design require a Bachelor’s degree from a good four year college or university these days. Avoid all programs and schools that have the word “game” in the title, as they are almost universally crap, and a waste of your time and money. The only exceptions to that rule are the Masters program at Carnegie Mellon, and the undergrad program at USC. Avoid everything else. Assuming you decide to stay in Oregon (which is a risk because of the game industry there, see below), just pick any good four year school, public or private.

There also isn’t a best major for game design. I’ve worked with game designers with degrees in everything from Theater to Biology (but not a single one who went to ITT, or who has a degree in Game Design). Just pick a major that interests you and that will allow you graduate as quickly as possible. Along with your major take math up through Calculus 1, and at least two courses in Statistics, two courses in writing, one Computer Science course, and one art course. Math and writing are the main tools of a designer, and the CS and art courses will help you work with your programmer and artist colleagues later on. Fill up the rest of your course requirement with a wide liberal arts education — history, literature, mythology, sociology, psychology, etc, are all useful in game design.

I know you have good reasons for staying in Oregon, but keep in mind that there are very few game studios in the state, which can hurt your chances at getting hired out of college. Most game companies will not pay for relocation for an entry level job, and some won’t even interview you if you don’t live in the area, so it’ll be a lot easier to find a job after college if you already live near several studios. There’s a map here: http://gamedevmap.com/ that lists every game studio by city. Try to find a college in a city with at least 10 game companies. If at all possible, go to school near a city with a lot of game studios, like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Austin, Seattle, etc.

Good luck!
