Where can I find tutorials for scripting in c#??
My cousin is a software engineer who makes games for his private company. After hearing about his job, i thought it would be cool to make games too. He referred me to Unity, but i know next to nothing about how the coding works, besides the basic arithmetic. anybody know where i could find some videos for absolute beginners?? Preferably C# tutorials.
Step 1 : learn how to use google (or your search engine of choice). To learn to program you will need to do alot of research and reading.
This question was already asked in the last week. And numerous times before that.

Seriously, you need to learn how to use a search engine. Try it now ... type Unity tutorial into google, it's that easy.

Here are some links I strongly suggest to all new users :
Start at the bottom and work up : http://www.unity3dstudent.com/category/modules/
this is the YouTube link for the above as one playlist : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oXYHNSmTxg&list=PL27B696FB515608D2&feature=plcp
That is good to get started. Then start with a small tutorial, this is a simple 2D space shooter : http://www.unityjumpstart.com/ProofOfConcept_1/ : click on the videos part1.mp4 part2,3,4 =]
I found another by Eric : http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php?title=2DShooter : http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/7883-2D-shooter-tutorial
By then you should be getting the hang of things and starting to have ideas of your own. When you decide what kind of game you want to make, then look at each part you'll need. For example, if you want to make some terrain then walk around it with a character : http://cgcookie.com/unity/2011/12/05/introduction-to-character-controllers/
Basically then just search for tutorials, there are many out there, either written or on youtube.
the Unity Wiki tutorials : http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/Tutorials
A big list of tutorials : http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/12321/how-can-i-start-learning-unity-fast-list-of-tutori.html
A very helpful 'site, all in C# : http://unitygems.com/
Helpful page with information on using Built-In Arrays and Lists (you'll need this later!) : http://www.unifycommunity.com/wiki/index.php?title=Which_Kind_Of_Array_Or_Collection_Should_I_Use?
The unity wiki link above is very handy with lots of scripts and shaders too (just check out all the links down the left, and the tabs along the top : http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/Scripts )

I've tried using google but everything I've found is too complex for me too follow, I've found a couple videos that I understand, but after the first 2 or 3 videos they start to lose me. But thanks for the help, this is useful.
http://cgcookie.com/unity/ have 2 video tutorial series that I will recommend to beginners:
Getting Started with Unity (about 10 videos, 10 $$anonymous$$ each): Covers all the basic control/stuff you will be using in Unity + one tutorial to make a simple game
Lunar Lander Series (6-7 videos, 20 $$anonymous$$ each): The difficulty level of this tutorial is a 1.5-2.5 if 0 is for begineer and 10 is for veteran. You will learn a lot from this.
After these 2 series, you can start looking at http://cgcookie.com/unity/category/difficulty/beginner/ for other stuff as well.
By the way, it was a long time ago since I watched these videos; so I have no idea whether if they are in C# or uJS, but it is not that difficult to translate/convert between C# and uJS, these videos are still a set of very valuable resources.
