I post this here because I sent it to someone in a PM but actually some other people might benefit from it maybe?
Ok here are some links for you detailing various things about C++
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B < A wikipedia article stating the history of C++, what it is in quite a technical level, etcetera. Read this first and see what you can make of it.
http://www.cplusplus.com/ < This is site provides a variety of links for C++ learning.
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ < This is the actual tutorial for learning the basics.
However none of those links tell you how to apply what you know into the gaming world so here are some extra bits:
http://gpwiki.org/index.php/Game_Programming_Wiki < multi-lingual game programming wiki
http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Game.../dp/1592002056 < I think I will get this book because it is specific to game programming! Seems really helpful, you might be able to get a free PDF illegally but I suggest you buy it simply because it's more tempting to open a new window on a PDF than it is to do something else once you get into a real book.
for more help search c++ game development books
