Any Zel members tried XNA development yet?

God damn you sound high and mighty.

Doesn't he always?

I was just writing from a realistic standpoint on the issue. That's all. Calm down you two and stop spamming the thread with your crap.

I took C++ all through highschool and I have programmed a number of 2d games. I went to youth bootcamp for 6 months when I was 16 and with no access to electronics, I just wrote all the lines of code for a game into a notebook. When I finally got home I was able to compile it after a few error corrections.

Oh, so you have programming experience. That's great then. Keep in mind though, this is C#, pointers and certain other things like certain operator overloading do not work the same in C#. I think you'll get around to it pretty quick though. Oh, and make sure to read up tuts on getting started with XNA, because it is a little strange to begin with. Once you wrap your head around it, though, it's pretty simple.

Also, make sure to get your developers license if you want to sell things for the PC and Xbox360.

Thanks for the pointers. Once I get my new system up and running me and my brother in law are gonna start working on the XNA stuff. (He is an outstanding 3d modeler and programmer.)
