A couple disconnected comments....
- Ultimately the language you use in .NET won't matter as much as using the .NET Framework Classes (or Base Classes). You should use the language you are most comfortable with.
- Having said that, many hard-core games that rely on fast execution tend to use C or C++.
- If using Microsoft libraries for game programming, then you'll probably want to use DirectX. DirectX wasn't included as a part of the base class libraries in this first release of .NET. DirectX is, however, what I would start with if I were using Microsoft technologies for game development.
- <disclaimer> I'm not a game developer.
