XNA


How many times have you said "I could make a game better than that while eating a fried chicken with one hand and scratching my butt with the other!" Maybe not those exact words but you know what we mean. Well, here's good news.

If you're from UK, you can now put your money where your hand, err, mouth is by joining the XNA Creators Club.The club just opened is doors to all untapped creative minds who want to build and develop the Xbox 360 game of their dreams.

The XNA Creators Club is available on Xbox Live Marketplace for £ 30.00 (about US$ 58.00) for a four-month subscription or £ 65.00 (about US$ 127.00) for a yearly subscription. So what do you get for your money? Both subscriptions provide aspiring game developers access to thousands of game assets from Microsoft and key supporters such as Turbo Squid Inc. You also get white papers, specialized starter kits, samples and technical product support to help turn your game idea into reality.

There's more. To celebrate the global launch of XNA Game Studio Express, MS will launch the "Dream-Build-Play" contest in January. The contest is open to XNA Creators Club members and XNA Game Studio Express customers (on Windows). The winning entry will be published on Xbox Live Arcade.

Homebrew game developers, start revving your brain cells!

This is going to fail badly for 1 reason:

Anyone who wants to play one of the created games ALSO NEEDS TO PAY. Who is going to pay $127/yr to play crappy homebrew?
