Re: PC Gaming - How they are made ?
Phew!, This is a huge topic my friend, involves dozens of stages and what not, however here is a very brief overview of how it is done in big studios.
1. The idea of the game is cooked by brainstorming between the staff, this is starting stage where the viability of the game is discussed.
2. The story is fleshed out.
3. The GDD ( Game Design Document ) is prepared by the creative team, this doocument highlights the the design, structure, flow of the game, art etc all non tech stuff is discussed.
4. The TDD ( Technical Design Document ), this piece of work highlights the tech stuff required to make the game possible, ex engine used, scripting, programming of gameplay etc. The GDD and TDD team work very closely with each other.
5. The game is now developed, the art department creates models, textures, levels, sound and all kinds of stuff. The technical department fits all this in the core gameplay.
6. Game is tested.
7. Verified for release and then published.
Don't be fooled, this description is a very tiny description of Game devolopment, try searching on Wikipedia for this topic or go visit websites like
Gamesutra, IGN etc...

its huge system...
team of designers,developers,testers...
programming languages: C,C++,python
gaming engines etc
^^Lisp is another important language used.

any youtube links?
Nothing specific. You need a lot of knowledge about a lot of things.
See this Google search. I doubt if it will help
how to make a pc game youtube - Google Search

i put my hobby as pc gaming for my interview. so i m sure i ll get questions based on gaming....all i know is playing....
LOL... All the best. Panga le liya..
Go through these links:
OpenGL - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Simple DirectMedia Layer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
DirectX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The only software written in Lisp which I use is, emacs. Pretty much non-existant everywhere else except AI.
Some people might be using it. Important? surely NOT.

Lisp is dead now, imho.

Lisp is not dead, still considered a very advanced language... Used a lot in A.I.
^ yup, I know of it. tbh, people have pretty much moved onto Tcl + C for that.
My IRC bot for example, is written in Tcl + C. I've tweaked it, gives some immensely funny replies. Learns stuff over the time too.

Hmm.. I didn't knew that.... ( TCL+C ) ... Thanks for the update......
So ..... "Hey RahulB you don't know Lisp is dead"....

Its a real vast area. Story, animation, designing, graphis, sound effects and what not. In a gist its kind of complicated and thats why there are teams which consists of fellas from different fields working together to create a marvel.
its not lisp, lisp cannot be used in game development.
i think you meant lua. its very much like c and a bit like java and python
D
what is lisp? is it a programming language
R
Yup! A great programming language
^^ given you can understand and effectively use the arcane syntax
parentheses, parentheses everywhere!!
best be careful in the chatroom, his bot gives some insanely crazy replies

Gaming & Animations are co-related to each other

any link to know more abt the gaming based on Q&A format?
Btw which topic you want. Programming/art/design/animation/testing/physics/ai/ etc....... Its a vast area.
Wikipedia will be helpful.
OK a simple method. search "video games" on wikipedia . There you will find all topics (history , generations , plateforms , genre , blah blah.....)
Go as much deep as you can

Pretty simple imo.There is this game designing team and there is a game development team.The designing team designs aspects like story,levels,gameplay etc. and the development implements whatever wanted by the design team and you have a game.*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif
