Count me in for Yaroze 2. This has been a tremendous learning experience. I think I am one of the few people in this program who has a full-time job in the IT industry. I have always enjoyed playing games and marveled from a distance at the increasing complexity and production value of videogames. The Yaroze program has given me an entry point into an otherwise fairly closed industry, that being console game development. If I had it to do over I would definitely go the route of game developer instead of IT developer, but at least with a Yaroze and hopefully Yaroze 2 program when I tire of corporate development (very soon), I have an opportunity to show that my software engineering skills are portable to this industry, thus hopefully avoiding starting over completely. I sincerely hope Sony continues with the Yaroze program, this was a great idea! Thanks, Gregory A.
