Thank you all... It seems that XNA is the most recommended (i didn't say the best ;P ), so i will give it a try. And patbob, i really would take your advise and look forward joining a group.

Been there, done that! Believe me, that's the real reason i try software developing in the first place :laugh: At least having fun coding is more meaningful than been criticizing people around...

Looks nice, i would give it a try. Thanks :thumbsup:

I'm not coding for a living, just for hobby, so i think assembler maybe is too much, i still want to sleep you know, as a VB developer i really get used to it :cool:

I used to be a developer in VB [insert sarcastic note here!], and after a couple of years without coding, i feel my mind is getting slower. So i was thinking about a new hobby and start writing games, only to remember how good it felt to solve something and give some healthy work for my brain. I'm not thinking about fancy graphics and anything like that, just in learning the logic to implement some situations (turn by turn battles, etc.) Recommendations are welcome... :-D

If Dispose is implemented, you should use Dispose after calling Close. But since not everyone follows the intended design, you should read about the implementation if you are using third party Classes

yep! Mauricio

After 9/11 not everyone does it. i have used this service in Madrid, Barajas. :cool: Mauricio
