As far as game engines go there are plenty of them available for free in C++, its been awhile since I've looked but I'm sure there are numerous C# ones out by now. I've read a bunch of books on the subject though because its of interest to me.
Same here. I am also a web application and services developer. And... I do have interest in game programming. It's just I don't have a chance to start one. I, personally, believe that I won't be able to start game programming from scratch; writing on available game engine will be the best option to start.

I also notice some game engine developed using C# language, and since I use C#, I am thinking of trying out with this language. I do believe that writing a game requires talent and art skills; unfortunately, I don't really have much.

What do you get from most of the books you read?
