What if I made my own engine? Is that sort of thing hard?

Not necessarily hard, depending on the engine you're doing, but to do much more than Pac-man or Pong requires a good sense of overall architectural and design principles. It's also very time-consuming to re-invent someone else's work.

Wow, thanks for all the advice, guys! Especially Wingless.

Soooo education-wise, the general vibe I'm getting from this thread and the "your gaming degrees are useless" one, is that it's better to get a general Computer Science degree than to go into a specialized trade-school-type place?

All of the advice so far has been incredibly helpful, thanks again you guys.
