Computer game programming mini-lecture

[simonsj]

well, someone suggested that i do a mini-lecture on game programming. Â*Now the question is, what do you want to know? Â*I can think of a few things, naturally, but they generally cover the course of the class being offered. Â*While that may be interesting, there is not much that I would be able to do without a classroom setting, instead of a short mini-lecture. Â*It has been suggested that I talk about some good starting books, and how to get into the gaming business, is there anything else people want to know?

Maybe you could give a technical overview of each of the elements of DirectX and give a code snippet for each.
