Where to start on the career path of Video Game Design
Like any type of career there are schools that will help you learn on what to do for your job. True this does mean more school work, but it will help in the long run of things.
The Business side of Video Games
Lets not forget a side to video games that everyone that plays them. That is the whole marketing of the video game itself. Video games just don't sell themselves do they, no that is up to the marketing staff.

Coding of Video Games
No matter what part of making a video game that you do there will always be computer coding that will be involved. Because that is for a video game, in other words that the information must translated into signals of information that the system can understand and be translated for visual use onto a screen of some type. this is where the computer coding of a video game comes to play.
Music for a Video Game
The music in a video game is to help set the mood of the setting of a video game. You don't want to be playing a game being chased by a blood thirsty monster on your tail, and have a melody that is happy. That just throws off the entire setting, and I tired that after reading a few things about music and games. I just felt that was wrong and did not want to play that game again.
Graphics of a Video Game
Taking a step back from the game development, but to look at the graphic side of things. For one does not want to play a game if it does not look good too. Though in the last five years video games have soared into coming HD. Unfortunately this can easily lead into the uncanny valley of the graphic department.
