UDK Tutorials for the Absolute Beginner

Question

I am currently interested in game developing. I know a little bit of C# and I am pretty fluent in Java and VB.NET. My friend told me the UDK is the best free game development software out there. I downloaded it and played around with it for a while.

Then, I began looking around for tutorials. I tried this one, but the tutor was very fast and most of the stuff I couldn't get. The documentation and tutorial videos that udk.com presents are not much helpful because they expect you to have some previous background knowledge on game development.

So, what are some good UDK tutorials for the ABSOLUTE beginner. Keep in mind I know absolutely nothing about game developing except hitting the play button and moving around the environment.

Thanks in advance!
