Like most of you, I saw the XNA announcement about a month ago, I had actually forgotten about it – or at least cataloged it into a back corner of the mind.
Well, I just saw an email from MSDN that the new XNA game development studio beta is now available. There is no support yet for the XBOX 360 yet, but they say it will be available later this year.
I really think once the 360 support is ready AND Microsoft figures out an easy way for smaller developers to promote and monetize these games (and apps), we’ll see an interesting ecosystem start to crop up here.
