Ok. I understand that at some point these judgments will have to be my own, but I figured I'd ask you for some advice right now ;).

Cause I'm a little kid (heh at heart at least), a lot of what I do is focused around games. My friend has asked me to make a game for his site, which I'm thinking would take 8 hours of PHP coding, with a PHP login / logout system already in place. I'm guessing this is something I should use PHP for, right? Especially because I don't know really any Perl?

On the other hand, I'm hoping to get a big game site going, with lots of cool features and all that fun stuff. I have nothing done except for a web design and some PHP for handling the things I've described above. At this point, would it be worth switching to Perl? Which begs the question, where does PHP hit that wall which makes Perl so much better, and how likely am I to hit it?
