Ultimately, making a good game is largely dependent on how dedicated the person is to making it. If you are willing to work as hard as it may take, then you can pretty much do anything. This will of course take quite a lot of learning, especially if you dont have any programming experience. However, there are quite a few books dedicated to how torque works that will help you learn greatly such as [url="http://www.garagegames.com/products/87] The Game Programmer's Guide to Torque [/url] and [url="http://www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=5638] 3D Game Programming All-In-One [/url]

So, with a combination of your dedication, these resources, and the really supportive community that we have here - you can pretty much make anything you want. So, as you can tell, I am a big fan of Torque - and can't reccommend it highly enough. If you want to make a game, you can't get a better deal than Torque, I would definately encourage you to make the purchase, for 100 dollars, its a steal.
