C++ Game Programming Books!NEED HELP

More questions....does this book show you how to make an actual game like a tetris clone or pac-man pong.....ect..or is it just tricks for game programming gurus(joke you see?).
Not particularly funny. It covers the components of real live games, and shows how to make a 2D space shooter. The new edition also includes a chapter (in the first edition it was only in PDF format on the CD) on text adventures. Over all, it''s a super book if you are conversant with C beforehand and you''re willing to stick with it.

...Game Programming Gurus is a pretty decent book. Acts as a good stepping stone if you want to get started in game development, however, I''d recommend you learn C and C++ first, without any relevance to games, then try making a few simple games on your own. Starting with games just makes the whole world of programming seem much more overwhelming at first.
