Which language and what recommended book for game programming
Hi,

I want to write games, i know some programming language like java, c or c++, a little c#, but i have no experience in the field of game programming, so could you give me some suggestion about the language and the corresponding book.

Thank you very much.

there is too much to recommend. Basically, i recommend anything by Andre Lamothe.

There are many API's which you can use for game programming. I recommend you learn more about gaming before starting.

google, is your friend
