Not as much as they should IMO - these guys work a shitload of hours

Although what isn't mentioned here is often times MMO developers get a cut of the subscriptions..

Ouch... kinda breaks the whole game designer dream all us geeks have...

The salaries aren't that bad, but I'd expect more for the amount of work put in.

Marketing: $76,000

Now that's what i'm talking about. That's my major. Infortunately I won't see that for a few years, but it is nice to know that is what i'm looking at.

Hamma! Its old! GameDeveloper had this info over a year ago! For shame! After seeing the list though, I lost intertest in being a developer, and am going after Civil engineer, they make lotsa moneys.

Sorry OFN to the max - either way it's pretty interesting.
