Im really interested in getting into game programming, but i don't really know where to start. I've done basic things such as tic-tac toe and slot machines, but id like to make 2-d (im not one to jump into the deep end) adventure / RPG games. Can anyone point me in the way of some good tutorials (things like spriting, colisions, basics of graphics et cetera). Thank you in advance.

Hi,
The best way is to go to the Gameprogramming forum and ask your questions there!
Much succes!

There's a VB.NET game programming tutorial in my signature.

he probably would have gotten more help there, he has asked here before with not much success, I would help if I could, but we both have the same internet and its just a matter of looking around, I hope someone helps you...
Have you done any real-time games (with a game-loop and such) before?
If you havn't it would definatly be worth doing a very simple one first of all. Even if it's something like pong, breakout etc.
This will teach you a lot about organizing your code, how a game-loop works, how to deal with input, using bitblt (or DirectX) and dealing with moving objects (collision detection, velocities etc).
