HI
I am new to the opengles
You just answered you own question .
It sounds like you might be better off going with a game engine as it will get you up and running and better results.

What first game did you program?
Name your game, the OS and language, and even a Website URL to get your game. Old DOS Games and Flash Games with ActionScript are allowed. Game kits are allowed, too.
...and did it make you a better developer?

I'm working on a Windows game, and I have this:
bool game_cont; LRESULT WINAPI WinProc(HWND hWnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { switch(msg) { case WM_QUIT: case WM_CLOSE: case WM_DESTROY: game_cont = false; break; } return DefWindowProc(hWnd...

You could make game_cont static to your main file which has WinMain / WinProc , but I don't know of a significantly better structure.
I don't know what's the ultimate design here, but it's an idea .

What makes a gaming computer better in gaming than normal ones? Just curious but, gaming computers seem the same to me, they can be less expensive than normal ones, and the processors might even be worse, but what makes it better in gaming.

If you plan to write your game entirely with one language, I think that Python is better.

I'm messing around with game loops and going to create some games as practice.
Currently I have a steady game loop up where the game is updated as fast as possible and the rendering is updated x times a second (25 currently)
The rendinging method is basically...

I'm guessing your problem arises from Console.Clear() not being optimized for this kind of use, as XNA uses a similar method ( Clear() is called on a GraphicsDevice ) .
Since you're in C# anyway, you might want to look into the XNA Framework .

I feel Windows 7 is very fast but I'm using Vista for most of my gaming and it is really slow. Now I don't know if I should go back to XP or migrate to Windows 7 to play games and record videos while playing.

Well i think Windows 7 is better for gaming it yourself.....
I use 7 for games, and aside from the odd hiccup because speed get more RAM and Windows 7 64-bit to handle it.
Direct X 10, and 11 so games will look better.
