I have been waiting for this for years. I have posted questions or just scanned forums of many game engine sites about using C# for game design, and I have never found anything very useful.
My one requirement for a game engine has always been that I will NOT learn C++ or some weird BASIC scripting language. I use C# at work, and by writing games in C# at home, I would hone my programming skills while having fun. And I would fulfill the drive to make games that started when I played my first Atari 400 games back in the early 80s.
I think the whole XNA thing will bring computer games back to the days when computer magazines had as much user content as professonal content. People who owned computers back then were engaged in making things, and you saw innovation. Today computer games have stagnated. The only innovation seems to be the incremental improvements in graphics.
There are the inevitable attacks against Microsoft, and there are the inevitable ant-managed-code attacks. If you enjoy attacking Bill Gates, that's fine. Personally, I just want to write software in the most efficient manner possible, and have some fun.
Thanks for TorqueX!!!!
NOW...PLEASE, SOMEONE, WRITE A BOOK TO GO WITH IT!
