Just a quick heads up for all you C# developers out there. Microsoft’s new dev kit called XNA Game Studio Express now allows you to code out applications for both Windows and Xbox 360 at the same time. You just end up using two separate compilers for each platform to get the job done. Freelance game developers take note, this is a great way to have that Windows-based game you’re working on ported to the 360.

Sweet! I’ve been waiting on this since I heard about the Beta. I think this will open up the 360 in a lot of ways.
At $99/year it may be a little high for the average gamer, but when you consider that’s roughly the price of 1.5 new games, it’s not so bad.
I’m waiting to see what kind of content is being created before I sign up though.

Ars has a good writeup about this, by the way:
