Yes its possible just look into programming with
Direct X. I would say alot of the popular windows
games are probably programmed with Visual C++.

You can't go wrong going in either direction Dos/Win.
They both have there pro's and con's and games run
well in both.

Hit the game programming sites and see what the
hardcore programmers use. I would say you'll probably
find them using both compilers for Dos and Windows.

Have fun and good luck,
Frank
