Pretty sure you can teach game design. Pretty sure because there exist classes in it at my universities. Just because something seems purely creative, doesn't mean it can't be refined and doesn't mean there aren't underlying rules that one operates by. Look at creative writing, as one example. Some people can just naturally compose a sentence better, but they may not be able to intuit the foundations of story composition. It's not an easy thing to just grasp or deduce on one's own, it's both a sort of cultural knowledge that's evolved (with less-intuitive story styles being shelved or forgotten) or a professional knowledge that takes time to acquire--like how to compose a New York Times Best Seller, because trust me, they are formulaic.

Sorry for the grammatical errors, got back from an open bar tonight.

...what? They're only in close proximity to Columbia, NYU/Polytech, Hofstra, Stonybrook, a bunch of other private and SUNY/CUNY schools, as well... Rutgers a few miles away. How is there an insufficient talent pool in the New York City area when it has tons of schools with decent to excellent compsci programs? Not to mention all those art schools, when it comes to graphic and sound work. Hell, NYU is launching an a games department.

Calling BS on this one, there's probably some other factor at play. No way could I believe it's a dearth of talent.

It was actually called God of Thunder! Found it on YouTube.

Anyone reminded of this old Thor RPG I used to play on my dad's old computer... like fifteen years ago? It was running on MS-DOS and it was kind of Zelda style.

I'm skeptical of any Ubisoft game because they have this very particular tendency to suck wild ass.

A racing level theme? I've got one... I've got THE one. The one that you will remember, the one that will have you talking, screaming, crying.

Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom: Battle Track Bonanza

Alternatively, a track based on Cormac McCarthy's the Road.

PixelJunk Shooter was a boring game. Boring boring boring boring. I wanted to take a nap, that's how boring it was.
