im working on an arkanoid clone, is my first time ever using c# but it seems so easy to use (comming from c++ background) and ive got the basics there within a few hours

what u all working on?

A tetris clone. I did one in java a couple of months ago as a class project. First time c# user as well (also got some c++ background), so hopefully I'll be able to do it when I have some free time.

A Co-Worker and I started designing a game based on a little known board game... it's similar to chess. We got some basic pseudo-code down and we've glazed over some of the example applications.

It might be a while until we have something tangible though, we probably wont start actually working on it until next year. I want to finish up some other projects first...

But I'm definitely psyched to get started on XNA

I'm gonna build a game similar to Guitar Hero but using a real guitar, with a real time DSP to handle effects and stuff, and a full improvisation engine based on models of "signature" moves by great guitarists!

What do you mean "too ambitious for someone who can't code"? Pfft.

I'm working on a Toejam and Earl clone for the 360.

I'm making an open source 2D engine that will be applicable to pretty much any 2d project

Just a simple Texas-hold 'em poker game.

hmm, my first project will probably be some sort of a flight simulator... a basic one runway, 1 plane (to start) and later developing targets/weapons and maybe some AI

i really want a good poker/casino game. it would be cool if you could put the games on XBL so you can play other people
