Re: Game Programming

Since you got programming experiences from before you should focus on some graphics programming using one of the two major graphics APIs, as you mentioned by yourself, OpenGL or Direct3D (Direct3D is a part of DirectX). I have experiences from both and will recommend you to start out with studying the examples given on this popular site, nehe.gamedev.net, which gives you some examples of basic OpenGL programming. Complement this by buying one of the books on the site Ooble recommended to got the basic understanding of game engine design.
