    Question Game Starting Help

    Hey, I have always been interested in programming games, and I want to start now. I know some C++ and Visual Basic. How should I get started in programming games. I want to make some really advanced ones in the future, but I am getting confused with all these languages. Well, here is what I need to know:

    -Which programming language?

    -What is all this about OpenGL and DirectX?

    -Are there any sites that can help me?

    -What more do I need to know?

    -Is there any software that can help me?

    -What programming language was used for games like World of Warcraft and Crysis?

    -Any other stuff I might need to know.

    Thanks.
