    making of the game itself isn't what costs unless its a big game, even small companies need money, probably best to start with browser games - you can make money off those too with ones such as facebook games where people pay for premium cash, that would sure get funding for a larger company and also give you a good credit rating on taking out a corporate loan.

    Even for arcade games they can cost a good £10,000 or more, since they can take several months to make and wages always need paying and royalties too if some content isn't original.

    I've read you can submit an idea or concept to Microsoft and depending on whether they like it or not you'll be given development tools.

    Good luck with that. I'm going more into the whole journalistic part of the gaming world.

    I have a feeling the whole career wouldn't be as exciting as it sounds, unless you had the exclusive task of testing the games or something. In any case, I've taken the completely wrong career path as far as game development is concerned.

    That sounds like a great idea with huge potential. Have you thought of Leisure Centre opportunities like gym instructors etc. Not a huge wad of cash but fine until you do. =]

    Best off starting now and make a name of yourself. I work at several sites and my idea of 'video game journalism' has completely changed over the last two years.

    As good as working with video games for a living goes it sounds very fun, I love to play games but the rest of it would put me off them, I wouldn't want to make a hobby into a job, especially considering it's really one of the few things I actually enjoy doing, if I absolutely had to do something in games then it would probably be creative director or something, I've got a few concepts on my computer for various games I'd like to see but it's not something I really care to put into motion.
