C# because it's easier and has more features

plus the number of assemblies you have for it :D

Why not just learn C? Then learning all the C languages will be a piece of cake!

Wrong. C# is so unlike C (the only thing similar is parts of the syntax, to be honest.) so learning it won't really help.

C++ is probably much more powerful, however, it is the syntax which should be the deciding factor.

C++ is only 'much more powerful' due to the fact that it has pointers, which may not even be useful depending on what you're doing.

C# has events, garbage collection, simple polymorphism, interfaces, reflection and no need to recompile for different platforms.

I personally have been using C++ and am happy with it. If you want a challenge or like to do stuff exactly the way you like, go for C++. Otherwise, go for C#.
I hope that made sense...

C# is better, because you can use it in Unity. You can use C++ on the Unreal engine but unity is better. I would suggest C#.

c++ is hot cuz it has pointers

in lua, you'd modify a number like this:

function increase(x)
x = x + 1
return x
end

local n = 0
n = increase(n)
n = increase(n)
print(n) --> 2


in c++ you can manipulate n using a pointer

void increase(int *x) {
*x = *x + 1;
}

int main() {
int n = 0;
increase(&n);
std::cout << n << std::endl;
return 0;
}

@Sky
You can make a programing language out of any language.
There are two things: Lexing and the Interpreter.

Lexing compile it down into a call stack, and the interpreter executes it.

Scripting is without lexing.

@Forever: Why would you want to do to that though? I prefer Haskell where data is immutable - there aren't any variables.

that was just a simple example, but it can be very useful when it comes to manipulations classes and such
