What video game programming language would be best for me?

Hi, I want to try video game programming, I've never done it before unless you include the program scratch, but that doesn't really count. This will most likely start out as a hobby and I'll see how much I enjoy it and go from there. So ya, I want to know what programming language would be best for me, thanks!What video game programming language would be best for me?
Hi, I have been developing computer games and by now I have used various languages and tools. There are certain things that you have to keep in mind when you start learning about these technologies:





1/ What platform are you writing for. If your game gonna run on windows pc, mac , iphone , windows mobile , xbox or something else.





2/ What is the nature of the game. The game can be action/adventure, sports , 2D or 3D graphics , scrolling screen , fixed screen , text based like scrabble.





I would highly recommend and suggest to get an introduction of C# (C Sharp) and start using Microsoft XNA Studio for development. It comes with a strong library that will significantly reduce your development time and the engine has all the basics like (double buffering , advanced graphics options ) already implemented. You can develope the games on your windows pc machine and install XNA for free from http://channel8.msdn.com . If you dont like XNA and C# then you will have to learn Visual C++ and use some kind of library for graphics and inputs like Direct X or Open GL . If you dont like VC++ either then its pretty difficult to develope games. I would really recommend reading more about XNA and checking out their samples.





Hope this helps, Thanks

C++ is the best to learn if you want to do 3d games but tricky to learn if you've never done it before.





Try downloading Microsoft's Visuall C++ Express and going through the tutorials there to start with.
As other have said, C++ is the way to go, I hear that C# (Pronounced C Sharp) is also a good language to create video games, and all of the software to write in these languages can be found on Microsofts website.
If you go the C++ route, I reccomend after learnin C++, you learn the Simple and Fast multiMedia Libary or SFML, is a libary, it contains the functions and ect to use graphics and more easier with C++, thats for making 2D games
