Good luck with the interview!   What kind of things are you getting asked in
a 'games job' interview. Is it *really* informal chatting about games with
people in jeans, as some developers claim, or are they pretty much standard
suit-tie 'what can you bring to this company?' type affairs?    I suppose
this depends on the company too though...

Nintendo's bin man?   Or Parhaps the bloke who delivers their sandwiches?
