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.

Please learn punctuation.

I missed a word and mis-spelt one, whoopy fuckin do.

Whilst I agree with everything that you say, my main point is that advanced Physics isn't in play at the moment due to limitation of processing power. But maybe soon, these concepts can be implemented. Classic Physics is "realistic" enough to be used in current games without a performance hit.

I'm directing the argument towards basis of whether these concepts are useful for games.

Another OpenGL noob... go back and read your tutorials.
