First of all, you've got a long way to go before you can think of writing a game.
Second, DO NOT LEARN VB! I would recommend for a first language, either delphy or if you are up to more of a challange, java.

Yes, don't learn VB.

And dnoch, don't recommend languages you don't know. Thanks.

I have played around with a few languages before going to Java

What does that have to do with anyhting? I played with ruby a long time ago, that doesn't mean I'm going to recommend it.

I would have to say "Game Programming with APL"

, that was a joke. If you want to start out i would say learn python, then learn C and after that you could choose C++, C# or some other language. I would not recommend learning java as a first language. I don't know of any good game programming books so maybe go to some game forums and ask around there.

Hey dnoch were in SA are you from?
