Much years to work.
First, define what game will you make. If you are an individual and pro at scripting you can make java-based game by using some what-what softwares.

More in depth please? You want an application that creates full standalone programs/games? Well, if you do, try UDK or Game Maker 8

Game Maker 8 is
[+] Simple to make a basic game
[+] Built in paint editor
[+] Nice Community
[+] Many tutorials/Examples to build off of in their Community Forum (YoYo Games)
[-] Limited to almost complete 2D
[-] Programming language to make advanced stuff
[-] Have to buy Pro Version to obtain some features
My Rating: 7.4/10

UDK is
[+] Amazing Graphics
[+] Amazing Customizability
[+] Great Community
[+] Complete Modifiable Source
[+] Free!
[+] Many ways to approach level design (Such as creating light through Kismet, or the engine)
[-] Moderatley difficult to learn
[-] Hard to master
[-] Many confusing scripts and documentation
[-] One thing wrong in source, KABOOM!, you would need to fix before Engine will start again at all

My Rating: 8.9/10

Torque Game Engine is:
[+] Good graphics
[+] User Friendly
[+] Great shading
[+] Pipelining
[-] Bad documentation
[-] Non active community
[-] Cost a WHOLE LOT!

My rating: 7.2/10

FPS Creator is:
[+] Large Community
[+] Many addons
[+] Supremely easy
[+] Drag n' Drop
[+] Multiplayer option simply enabled by the click of a button
[-] Limited game creation space
[-] Cannot create next-gen graphics
[-] Hard coding language
[-] Not very good lighting

My rating: 6.7/10



To build your own engine: Learn C++, Java, Ogre Graphics Rendering
^Not recommended without practice.

I personally go for Multimedia Fusion 2 due to it's convenient use of programming via clicking and drag'n drop.
There are four editions of it available; The Games Factory 2, Multimedia Fusion 2 Standard, Multimedia Fusion 2 Developer and The Games Factory 2: Newgrounds Edition.

You can look in this link for the difference between these editions:

The TGF2 Newgrounds Edition is the same as the regular TGF2. Only difference is that it's free and only lets you export to a SWF file for Newgrounds.com and does not include Newgrounds API integration.

Only downsides are that it's expensive (except for TFG2: Newgrouds Edition) and it's limited to almost complete 2D.
You can however make games with ray casting graphics (ala Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Commanche and Super Mario Kart) via custom extensions like Mode 7 (it's free) or Raycaster (costs 9$).
