Colleges offering video game courses

Menacing, metallic and mega-gun brandishing, the cyber super soldier looms over Richard Fleming's desk.

Not exactly stereotypical for a professor's office at Johnson County Community College?

Well, as the "Gears of War" crowd might say: "Eat boot! Suck pavement! Get back into your hole!"

This professor under the "Halo 3" figure teaches video game development. So lock and load, zappers of Nazi zombies or the locust horde. All those hours wearing out your thumbs in front of "Halo" or "Gears" actually could mean a college degree and fast career path.
