    Cool

    I've been a business programmer for about 2 years now and, it's just not very entertaining. I want to get into some game programming but don't know any good places for tutorials.

    1)If anybody knows any good Programming tutorial sites for C++, VB or Java Game Programming, please let me know?

    2)What are good (bang for your buck) 3D Graphics programs out there?

    3)How and where can I find some good jobs that involve game programming?

    Any input would be helpful, thanks.

    Check out www.gamedev.net , www.flipcode.com , and www.lionhead.co.uk (good games programming forum there).

    There are others, but those are the ones I visit most frequently. www.gamedev.net in particular has a very good forum for games programming.

    If you want to get started with games programming in C, a good beginners' book that is often recommended is "Tricks of the Windows Game Programming Gurus" by André LaMothe, ISBN 0-672-31361-8.

    My tutorial on BITBLT WIN32 API, one of the most widely used API calls for GFX. If you are not using this, you are probably using DirectX.
