Physics & Computer Science

My dad and my physics teacher have (independently) advised me, as a CS major, to minor or double-major, in physics.

Do you think this will really help me get ahead? I want to end up doing something with computer/video games, not writing scientific software, so I think basic general college physics (required for CS major already) is enough.

Any attempt to model real life situations with Physics results in over complicated methods and formulas which no average students would hope to understand because of mere factors.

Advanced Physical theorem is explained in an "assumed" state where multiple influenced is eliminated.

Example? We would never see the blue shift with normal objects since they cannot travel near the speed of light, even though relativity applies to them, we cannot notice a change.

What I mean by Physics do not apply to the real world is because it is merely an explaination of the natural universe according to our point of view.
