I was driving my car and all of a sudden I couldn't push on the gas it did not cut off but now when I put it in gear it just makes a load noise. Car is making a weird noise when in gear wont drive but will start. Do you think it is the transmission or drive shaft gears problem?

Thanks for quick response and no, I havent had any problems before this happened, and yes I check the trans fluid as well, even put some in, still no movement, just weird noise. In park its really loud and other gears lighter sounds.
