Are you asking what those games are programmed in or my opinion on best language? :D Honestly, it just depends what platform/engine you plan on dealing with. For example, something like Unity would use C# or JavaScript, and something like Unreal uses their blueprints system (and I think C++?). I mainly work with Unity, so I'm bias toward you learning C# and using it. :D However, both are amazing engines. You can't go wrong with either. What type of game are you wanting to make? That's best question to ask first. Once you know what you want, there are many paths to get you there. *EDIT* Btw, GTA V uses their own engine (RAGE). I think they made the engine itself with C++/C#.

I may even have an interesting opportunity for you to further your learning/studies/career. Hit me up.
