My escape key no longer works on my Macbook Pro?

My Macbook Pro is about a year and a half old. Recently my escape key has begun to not work. When playing games, or watching full screen videos, or anything, pressing it does nothing. I might have bound it to another function but I can't seem to find out where I can change that back. Where can i do that?

First try opening "System Preferences" and select "Keyboard" (under the "Hardware" category). Next press the "Restore Defaults" button. Next close all applications relevent to this issue. Now reopen the programs and see if the escape key works. If the problem still remains then try to navigate to the options and preferences of said applications and see if you mistakedly unbound the escape key.
