Just wanted to clarify -- you won't be able to actually tour the _offices_ of the campus. The event will just be in the cafeteria in Millennium E. However, the offices of the XNA developers will be just over your head, since they're all on the second floor of "Mil E" (as we call it).

It would be cool if we can see the event in streaming video!

Cause I think that some ppl, that leave in Europe (for example me in Italy), will not be able to come! :D+

Yeah Yeah...stupid idea, but it could be cool!

Hey Major or anyone else, are video cameras going to be allowed there? It would be a great way for me to spread the word about games that can be made using xna and a great way for my listners to see what is going on.

How was it? I'm not even sure if I want XNA or not yet, I wanna see how long it takes to make a basic game before I start working on one.

Hey Major (or anyone going)!

Could you post those tutorials on the web after the show?

It would be extremely helpful for those of us who won't be able to attend.

THANKS!

Definately going to be there. I am currently working on a title using XNA with a small team of 8. Hopefully we will be able to learn some cool new tricks to make our game even better.

They need to keep working on their BC catalog, I mean, i traded in my xbox in hopes that it would be BC, but the list of 300 plus games...yeah wow, but only 23 of my 128 xbox game collection are on the list. That puts me at 105 and counting that can not be played. I have a grip of fighting games like Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and KOF and what not, but i can't play them anymore.

Major, think you could comment in your next podcast whether or not they are still pushing forward? Just a simple, "Yes we are still pushing forward" or a "No your screwed" would be nice.

This XNA stuff is pretty intriguing, i'm checking it out now, and may need to plan a road trip.

phantam, torque x will be available soon enough, that's a 3d engine designed specifically for XNa. that should cover your advanced stuff, shaders and give the community an avenue for more profesional results.

hopefully it's going to be similar to the torque shader engine used in marble blast but i'm just hoping.

I will be there, I will be going for XBL Radio and covering it and doing some meet and greats. I look forward to seeing what is in store for us and then informing our awesome listeners about it.
