I know this has been asked before, yet I haven't seen anyone respond yet.
I'm looking for some references to get me started in programming a game.
I'm looking at doing a sports game, and have had some experience programming
graphics, except it was more in the line of image processing rather than
animated graphics.  What books are good for this sort of graphics?  I have
seen the "Programming the IBM VGA" or something like that, but it did not
seem to have alot of useful info.  Is a thorough knowledge of assembly
programming necessary?  I have some skill in this, but admittedly I am not
an expert.  If anyone has any pointers, tips, hints, comments, flames, etc,
I'd be glad to hear them, since I have searched for a FAQ and haven't seen
one posted.  

Thanks again for your help,
