hello everyone,

i have c# experience, actually much more great C# experience than c++, i am finally getting into C++ which i am breasing through since its all or close the same just different syntax really, I have a several questions not just mmorpg question, what should i learn after i learn this tutorial, the link is below:

Instructions for use

what should i learn next after I learn all there is to that tutorial above to help get a job or be more job marketable, i just dont want C# on my resume but also c++, do those 2 make a good match on a resume, i am also planning on learning wpf with C#, and C# i am doing advanced techniques like using LINQ to sql, xml, datasets, barely getting into C# networking etc. do all those plus learning c++ making very job marketable or should i learn something else? should i learn anything else in C# before trying to apply for a entry level programming C#/wpf job etc.?

Ok now the main question and stupid question, is it easy and effecient to create video games, specifically mmorpg games using c#? is there any new or good tutorials on directx/c# tutorials on making games or do i have to buy a book? and if i have to buy a book, what book would you recommend for a intermediate C# programmer to learn gaming from novice to advanced topics?

Thanks

oops ignore the part that says:

I have a several questions not just mmorpg question, what should i learn after i learn this tutorial, the link is below:

Instructions for use

what should i learn next after I learn all there is to that tutorial above to help get a job or be more job marketable,

but the other questions if anyone can please answer, such as "can C# make good games etc. i know we may only be limited to Windows OS which i dont care, but is there good tutorials out there on the web on how to do that stuff using VS 2008 or other compilers?" Second question: does c++ and C# go good together on a resume and Third and last question can i get a job with the knowledge i have below:

learned LINQ to SQL
xml with C#
little exp with wpf with C#,
learning C# networking

anything else i should learn with C# before trying to apply for a job?

ok i answered my gaming question about mmorpg, i got XNA which is really nice, you can make games for xbox and windows, but mmorpg games... C# networking will really help since i would need to make a server app and a client app.

ok so my MAIN 2 questions are..

1. with the knowledge i have now (LINQ TO SQL, ado.net (dataset etc.), little bit of WPF, xml to C#, good at C#), could i try and apply for an entry level position programming position? do you know any good place that will allow me to do an internship to help me with experience?

2. learning c++ will it help me get a job with C#, do those two make a good combination when seaerching or employers looking at my resume?
