It's OK if you're a beginner.  See from a few months ago for more of my comments.  I think Moose liked it though.<br><br>

Bought it, read it, not very impressed.<br><br>Personally think a beginner would be better off with a simple windows programming book, to understand the basic's of Win32, a decent games programming book, and then play with EasyCE.<br><br>Personal opinion, from experiance.
