What are the steps I should take when creating a pc game? For example do I brain storm an idea then write a story etc...

Hm, are you interested in actually doing it, or do you just want to know the processes involved?
If you want to do it: can you program? can you create decent artwork? can you write a story and create characters?
That''s info I''d need before even attempting to answer your question.
Anyway, you might wanna check out the "for beginners" link under "resources". Good luck!

I''d say something like this.
1:decide what you want to do.
2:write a design doc.
3:Decide what technolgy you want to use.
4
ut a team together.
5:Get a programmer and an 3d artist first to test out ideas.
6:Start project say goodbye to your personnel life.
7:Try to get it published and then retire(you wish).
or do you mean what skills do you need.
well coding C++,3D modelling,Script writting,Mapping skills would be a start.
or you could have a couple of million lying around and hire people to do it.

1. think up a theme
2. learn some artwork skills (photoshop or any other graphics prog)
3. learn some 3d modeling skills if you want it 3d (3dsmax)
4. learn basic, c, or c++... to accually make the game.
5. make a website.
6. promote.
