You say it like it is going to be walk in the park to create a game. If you are talking about simple games like tetris and solitaire you can learn a couple years of C++ and do it yourself. If you're talking about professionally done games like warcraft or battlefield 1942 you will need to have a team of artists, programmers, and testers for quality assurance. From the way you phrase this question I would have to say you have a long way to go before you actually think about making a computer game. It takes 3 years of delication to finish a game, and I doubt you know how difficult the process is.

ubb is exactly right. BUUUT their is an easier way, you can use a program but keep in mind that maniplulating your game will be an onerous task try: www.the3dgamemaker.com , oh yeah, and you need alot of $$$!
