I have a lot of experience with games, having played them for most of my adult life, and have always toyed with the idea of making them one day. I've finally decided to give it my best. What I'd like to know is: what are the best languages to study? What are the minimum diploma or degree requirements that most games companies will accept? Finally, is C++ the way to go? ASP? LUA?"

    If you were smart you would avoid computer technology of any type. The globalists running Washington, Redmond and Chennai have decided that Americans are too expensive, stupid and lazy and have decided to off shore all of this work. Personally, I suggest you study gun-smithing or farming.
