You can start by making textbased games lol so easy. if you need an easy language you can try VB but theres a lot more options, you can even make games in excel with macro's if you know how.

I have heard of Action Script 2 but it is too narrow. Try linking servers, making sound, and other things with it. It is too narrow. If you want to use the software that the professionals use, get Adobe Flash CS4.

I've never heard of Multimedia Fusion 2, but it seems more difficult than C++. C++ is the standard general purpose programming language. The Game Factory 2 seems a bit too basic. As if it is only used for games.

The best programming language, is C++. It isn't too hard too learn, it is easy to use, and there are many more things you can do with it. The only thing I don't know how to do is create a .swf file but I will learn.

Flashdevelop is a nice alternative but it's harder than flash.
