Re: Visual C++ vs Visual C#

I think you will find C# easier to learn if you don't know anything (or
Visual Basic for that matter), but you will really need to decide what kind
of program you are writing. I know there are people who say that C# is
great for writing device drivers and services, but I'm not one of them. C++
has the advantage of being able to write native windows (non-.NET) and .NET
programs or even programs that combine both managed and unmanaged (native
and .NET) code in the same program, but C++ is more difficult to learn.
If you are writing web based services I would certainly start with C#.

Ok I just received my brand spanking new copy of Visual Studio 2005. Now
comes the tough part. Which language do I want to learn? I have no
preference
of one over the other and am a total beginner at C in any variation.
What I want to do with it: Initially I want to write a rather simple game
mainly for my own entertainment, perhaps later others might want to play
it.
Initially I have no need for Internet or database or server connectivity
but
I want to start with a language that will let me do basic stuff now and
expand later as needed.
So which should I start with? Which will allow me the ability to learn
more
advanced stuff if I decide to such as web based activities, server
connections, etc.?
Any and all help is appreciated.
