            Does anyone know of any .NET games? What does .NET have to offer to the gamming world? I've heard of XNA, but I think that targets Xbox only. Any suggested resources/links?

            Visual3D/a>[^] looks like it may make a good indie game engine for .NET. It will apparently target XBox and Windows.

                    A bit OT, but I have to admit, I'm so glad VB.NET is replacing classic VB. It's leaps and bounds better. I still prefer native code for a lot of scenarios, but after being forced into classic VB land for so many years, it's nice to see it going.

                        Well, since I started using the *cough* help system for .NET in VS 2005, I've been spending a lot of time playing the latest Microsoft gaming craze, "Find the Relevant Information." I haven't made it past level 1 yet, but I have hope!

                          .NET game development used to consist of using the managed DirectX wrappers. It now consists of using XNA, which allows one to create games for both Windows and XBox360. :cool:

                                          Does anyone know of any .NET games? What does .NET have to offer to the gamming world? I've heard of XNA, but I think that targets Xbox only. Any suggested resources/links?
