Q. My brother recently got hired by a video game company and i wanted to buy him a laptop for his birthday that's good for creating video games or things of that sort.
A. You could buy him a HP HDX 16 or 18t premium series, Macbook Pro, Any Sony laptop (very expensive), or any Dell studio series (cheapest).
There are different processes that all go into making video games. He could be a programmer, a graphics designer or several other things. The Mac would cover just about everything but it is certainly one of the more expensive ones. But no matter what computer you buy it wont be able to create a video game without the necessary programs on it. These programs can cost just as much as the computer itself but I would assume that whomever your brother works for will provide him with the program that he needs. However if he works for a top end game designer they would most likely give him a computer to use which would probably be a desktop computer at where he works. So if you were buying him a computer to use at home and they didn't give him another copy of the program, the computer would need an auto-CAD program if he is a structural designer or a visual artist. If he is a programmer he would need a JAVA editing and developing program and if he is a programmer he would also need a computer that has a Linux operating system. If he is a graphics designer, productions designer he would need adobe illustrator/fireworks and possibly photoshop. If he is a producer I don't know what program he would need.

Should i get video games even though my sister told me to get computer games?
Q. I ve always wanted video games wen my sisters were around but never need it. now my sisters went to college and im alone with my parents and granparnets. i really want vidoe games but my sisters tell me my parents are to cheeap to buy me new games everytime i want them? wat should i do
A. Computer games are video games...
BTW, I would suggest getting a system, rather then getting PC games... PC gaming is an even more expensive hobby then console gaming, as you need a good system to run the games to begin with and every couple of years you NEED (not have) to upgrade your system...
Where as the longevity in a modern console is about 5-6 years before a new system is released.... An upgrade to a PC can top 500 easily, if you want better then decent-really good hardware... Where as a console costs about 300..
Gaming computer components also aren't designed for long lasting life... They're designed for power, and the more power an electronic uses/generates, the more heat it generates, and heat is the enemy to electronics, it reduces overall life... That is why people invest in beefy cooling systems for their high end gaming rigs.
If your parents are trying to convince you to stick to PC games for the cheapness aspect, make sure you tell them the above, the overall cheaper route is consoles, PC gaming is better left to serious gamers with money to burn.
