Oh wow, it's specially for games. Quote: The XNA team is proud to announce the availability of the XNA Game Studio Express Beta 2, aimed at helping students and hobbyists build games for Windows and the Xbox 360

As far as I know it's C# with a new sort of library. C# isn't that hard but it's more like Visual Basic and Javascript than C++. Everything in C# has properties, just like Javascript. form1.listbox1.etc.etc = "whatever"; Don't remember C++ does that. But it does have namespaces and classes etc. just like C++. The coolest thing about XNA is.... Besides PC games it can be used to create Xbox 360 games for Xbox Live Arcade. And if you have a game ready and publish it to Xbox Live than you can get money for it. You just need to pay a $100 license fee a year. ____________ blog.htbaa.com |

C# is more comparable to Java as a programming language then Javascript or VB. It lets you do all the bad things that C++ lets you do but makes them harder to do. ____________ I see 57,005 people. |

I've never done Java so I don't know. All I know is that with C# you have the endles form.listbox1.etc.etc.etc.etc which just works on my nerves. For school I did a project in C# and i must say it's very easy and it allows you to develop very fast. Ehm, C# doesn't let you do all the bad things that C++ allows you to do. That's one of the reason's the invented C#. ____________ blog.htbaa.com |

That means XNA isn't new anymore. :p Never used it since it came out after I graduated. ____________ Kwakkel |

O.O It's a pretty good language with massive support (well, I wouldn't go as far as to say 'massive'). >P
