Video Games

[tack]

Well I dont know where to put this thread because I am a  pretty garbage programmer. I really want to go to Ringling College in Florida and I was looking through things you could major in and I saw game design and ive been thinking about it for a while and I would really like to get into this. Unfortunatley Ringling uses a game design program called critech 2 or something and I read up about it and its way out of my league and expensive.. I was wondering if there was a good program to design 3d models and make character animations and other things for video games that isnt ridulously priced. My friend is very good at coding and im more of the artsy type. I think this would be something really interesting to try out and if anyone could help me that would be great, thanks:)

About Crytek: It's a graphics engine for real time rendering, like Unreal Engine. It's not for designing models and stuff. If you want to design stuff, you can use software like 3DSMax, Maya, etc.

I recommend http://www.blender.org/ , it's free, and has the best GUI I've seen in 3D design software.
