But in C you can you use pointers out of box, theres no 'tricking' the interpreter or anything.
I agree with the person who said VB can be used well for scripting. Because VB does so much behind the scenes stuff that you have little or no control over. which can be a hassle if it finds its way into the main message loop of a game.

Doesn't VB 2005 work with Irrlicht? Why not use that? I hate vb6, with a passion, almost everything about it, even the IDE (mouse scroll wheel doesn't work, argh!). VB 2005 is slick, now that's a good language. MS got it right with that one, flexible and substantially faster than VB6.
