I'm a guy with a CS master's degree and half a (stopped) PhD in computer graphics. I'd love to talk to you -- not sure how else to get in touch with you other than this.
If you'd mail me at manders2k dot junk at gmail dot com, that'd be fantastic.
It is my understanding that the game was to be delayed for some time because the game runs unplayably slow on most (even the newest) nvidia hardware. I think this is partially because the shaders are written in DX9, and DX9 does not take full advantage of the GeforceFX features; in fact it rather favors the ATI cards.
I have it on pretty good authority (a friend who works at the St. James Gate Guinness Brewery) that Guinness isn't shipped to the US at all -- Budweiser brews it in the states. Reciprocally, Guinness brews Budweiser in Ireland...
I just happen to be the webmaster/sys admin for DigiPen. The school originated in canada, but has since moved to Redmond, WA. I'm pretty sure we are the first school to offer a degree in game programming (officially ``Real Time Interactive Simulation''), and we also offer a 3D Computer Animation Degree.

Thanks...
at amazon -- great book on the game industry, pointers at publishers and a few do-it-yourself tips...
