Games For Mobile

What is the best language to write Mobile Games in?

I want to write games and apps for Blackberrys. What is the best language to use? Can PHP be used or is it just for web apps?

Programming languages are all the same, in the sense that they ALL produce symbolic instructions that can be read by a machine to perform some calculations.

Some are best suited for certain things, however. Yes, you can write a Mobile Game in PHP. Theoretically, that is.

But I’d rather use Java for it. Because:

1. Platform independent. You can run it on different phones with different architectures, even though 95%+ of them use the same (ARM).

2. Java has a huge support for mobile phones (Java Micro Edition).
