VB isn't a game.

to play volley ball get yourself a net and 1 other person

place the net 6ft off the ground

get a ball (leather) and punch the ball over the net

object of game dont let the ball touch the ground using only your arms

Please keep the language nice in this forum, thank you.
When you post a question like: "How do I play VB" you should expect to get answers like the one rudvs2 gave you.

VB isn't a game VB is a programming environment. You don't play games within VB. It's possible to create simple games in VB even though it isn't the best environment to do so.

Before trying to make a game like grand turismo 2 you must learn the basics of the language.
What kind of an answer did you expect? The source for the game????

[oakenfold]

YES the source code would b nice please post it ere

[da_silvy]

You better calm it down if you want to continue your membership at vbf

You can write DirectX games from VB which cover all of this, all the games for the XBox are written in DirectX too.

You want to get yourself the DirectX SDK (software development kit). You can download the SDK from this page and there are a load tof tutorial papers and samples in with this.

Good luck
