    HI.

     

    My Goal for the next years, is to learn to create FPS games, Please tell me how can I start, what books should I buy?

     

    I want to buy this book because it has a chapter named "Create a third–person shooter game."

    http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-XNA-3-0-Game-Programming/dp/1430218177/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1223667808&sr=8-14

     

    Do you recommend any other book? tutorials, sites? applications to create textures, 3d models? etc.

    I want to download all the SOFTWARE KIT I need to accomplish my goal.

     

    Thank you!!

    This book isn't too bad. Though it is in C++/DirectX, so if you're only looking for XNA based books it might not be of help.

    It covers a lot of areas:

    • Collision detection
    • Culling using octrees and occluders
    • Animation
    • networking
    • other FPS attributes...
