    I know it’s a joke but video games were my gateway into programming. I was so interested in everything about them and how they work. I get paid pretty well for doing it now and I attribute it all to playing video games as a kid.

      Same here. I wouldn’t want to be a professional game programmer because it seems like a terrible gig for most people who do it, but I’m very glad games got me into programming.
