DirectX Books
Anyone know of any good books which cover programming 2D tile-based games with DirectX?
Thanks. |

"Tricks of the Windows Game Programming Gurus" I heard is really good. I know someone who has the ebook of that but I am against ebooks b/c it's not worth getting in trouble for and plus the author spend a lot of time writing a book, we should appreciate it! Getting cheap used books on programming in a different story. My whole library is full of used but in good condition books which I got from Amazon and EBay.

Tricks is fantastic, but a little out of date - the latest edition only covers up to DirectX version 8. I'm hoping for a new edition when DX 10 comes out.
