Am I the only one who finds Unreal powered games for kinda slow, sluggish and with "weird" movement? Latest two titles that I've tried - Dishonored and especially Borderlands 2 compared to Rage are hm... crappy... on 660TI

Being from Bulgaria: .net is widely used over here. Most of the companies that I've worked for do relay heavily on MS stuff.

... or Futurama...

I pretty much relate to that. I've started my "Forever project" two weeks ago. And yep - it's a game :-)

I recently started reading "Think Like a Programmer" (http://www.amazon.com/dp/1593274246) and I find it quite helpful.

Very nice. I just miss some way to change the values with the mouse (wheel) - some kind of slider maybe?

Used it for years. Not sure that something else can match its speed.

The only downside is the tricky debugging.

And I'm just reading Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson. Amazing book.

To my knowledge most of the games/game engines are c++. I'm not a hard-core programmer, but I'm frequently interacting with that breed and almost all projects that require high performance are implemented in c++.
