Hello, I'm new to this games thing but I would like to know what a
person who is interested in writing games pc & arcade should learn.

I'm a first year Comp. Sci. student in NUS. I will be learning
C, Cobol, Pascal, Assembly Language for the VAX and also graphics.

What are the essential things to making a game?

What are the job - opportunities for games programmers, and ideas man
(I've got a few games in my head.)

Where do I start?
