I'm getting into it, as I have heard it is very good for making 3d, as well as taking that extra step before learning C++, which will be used for the same reason.

I wasn't aware there was a forum "C#".

"Are you kidding me ._."

XNA.

I'm pretty good at C#. It's a very useful language, even if you're limited to Windows with it (there is Mono for Mac/Linux, but it's not the best in support for .Net framework stuff. XNA also works on the Xbox 360 and Windows Phone devices, but that's one specific part of the framework).

Java > C#

Seriously, where do you get the idea that C# can be in any way superior to Java?

ASM is limited because it's not always very hardware-independent.

"Seriously, where do you get the idea that C# can be in any way superior to Java?"

XNA, pointers, in my opinion better documentation, better libraries, operator overloading, optional arguments, custom errors, interactivity with native libraries, the list goes on (yes, I did steal some of these from a Wikipedia article comparing them, what of it?). Prove to me that Java is better. You cannot use "multi-platform" as your excuse, it is probably the number one most used argument for any language against C# and it's stupid, most people use Windows, and XNA allows you to target the Xbox 360 and Windows Phone as well. There's also Mono, which, while not the best, still makes it cross-platform. If you're going to say speed, I want proof that there is any difference that will ever matter, heck, I want proof that Java is faster at all. Personally, this is, to me, a matter of personal preference, you cannot argue one language being better than another.

"and it's stupid"

It isn't a stupid argument.

"There's also Mono, which, while not the best, still makes it cross-platform."

Are you sure you know what "cross-platform" means...?
Oh, you could as well say that it is cross-platform because you can use it in a virtual machine hosted by a system it is not compatible with... T_T

In my opinion, if you exclude web languages:
C++ > Java and C > C#

"It isn't a stupid argument."

And why not?

"There's also Mono, which, while not the best, still makes it cross-platform."

"Are you sure you know what "cross-platform" means...?"

Yes. The language itself is. The runtime it's typically dependent upon may not be, but that's why there's different runtimes of different systems. With this argument I could also say that Java is not cross platform.

"Oh, you could as well say that it is cross-platform because you can use it in a virtual machine hosted by a system it is not compatible with... T_T"

Not really, that'd be running it under a virtual machine hosted by a system it is not compatible with, Mono is running it under a runtime that aims to make it compatible across systems.

Give me a better argument, I feel like you're desperate to try and prove me wrong.

@Julien

XNA - LWJGL
pointers - okay you win this one
in my opinion better documentation - disagree. oracle docs > msdn.
better libraries - you have obviously never used the microsoft cryptography library or the microsoft XML library
operator overloading - not missing out on a lot
optional arguments - use method overloading instead
custom errors - extend the Exception class
interactivity with native libraries - what? JNI exists

"ASM is limited because it's not always very hardware-independent."

ASM works on all x86 systems the same (excluding OS stuff).

"Yes. The language itself is. The runtime it's typically dependent upon may not be, but that's why there's different runtimes of different systems. With this argument I could also say that Java is not cross platform."

Neither Java nor C# are cross-platform themselves. Java can only work on the JVM, which is a software platform on its own, and C# can only work on .NET (typically). In that sense, they are way less cross-platform than native languages like C that can run on virtually any device. But, the availability of C#'s and Java's VMs for various platforms makes them seem cross-platform.
