You gotta love the way Microsoft is approaching homebrew. With the release of XNA Game Studio Express, it has opened the floodgate of independent programming talent. And boy, the good results have been overflowing.

The latest XNA 'brew to come our way is a port of ScummVM for Xbox 360. For the uninitiated, ScummVM is a multi-platform program that allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games (i.e. LucasArts releases from past years). We've already witnessed releases of such kind making its way to the PS3, PSP, and even the DS, so it's just right that our green and mean machine got its own dose of ScummVM fun.

The release notes for ScummVM XNA v0.30:

• Telex fixed (ADD A AbstractFilesystemNode into the fslist)
