XNA Creators Club

After lauching the service earlier this week, Microsoft have allowed members of the public to produce and share games they make via Xbox Live. If you have an Xbox Live account and a HDD you can download the XNA pack which will allow you to play 7 demos over the next 15 days.
So far i've tried two games, Culture, where you control a beam of light to make flowers grow in a world, and Jelly car, where you drive a squishy car over a squishy world trying to reach the exit. I was pretty impressed with both, as they play quite solidly and have a really cool style to them.
Being told in an email from one of our course leaders that we will be using this XNA platfom next term looks like it'll open up alot of options. Exciting stuff.
