Welcome to the Gaming World.
My name is Corey Rosemond a.k.a. CRose (pronounced C-Rose) – I’m currently the Global Manager for the Games for Windows program at Microsoft and have over 15 years experience in the gaming industry and 30+ years of experience playing everything from Atari to Wii.
My goal is to drop some knowledge on the kuhvet.com readers. This about more than just the latest game coming out or best headset to play games on (which would be the Plantronics 777 Gamecom IMHO).
What I want to do is give some tips to those of you who actually want to make money in this industry some insight on what folks are looking for and how you get prepared.
The Gaming industry is a 10+ billion dollar industry with more revenue made in the US than the box office movie industry. Given all this wealth getting created I still see people running around playing their video games for fun yet futily trying to get a record deal and not thinking about actually making a game themselves. True, to make a game requires some programming, mathematics and artistic skills but the benefits can be very lucrative.
There’s multiple levels to game development from PCs to consoles to mobile phones: each with their own challenges and benefits. With all that being said I want to share my knowledge and experiences with you and hope to make this an interactive dialogue on gaming overall.
