Don't listen to PB, he doesn't know that much. Nah he actually does, many people will tell you to go for C++, while others have started to lean towards C#. I have seen this change in the last year or so while reading topics concerning this in various programming forums. I would suggest sticking with VB until you learn gaming concepts (if that is all you want to learn programming for) then move to C++. From what i have heard VB is much more game friendly because you don't have all those daunting tasks as you do in C++.
PB: I disagree well... more of I hope it doesn't change it C# as being the new high. I have actually heard a lot of people saying Java 2.0 being the next big programming language because it has gotten a lot faster, easy to program in and some other very nice upgrades.
