IS THERE A PLOT SOMEWHERE?

Thanks to Ziggyware I read about Dream.Build.Play 2 and the new warm-up challenge scheduled to start this Dec 8th, 2007, that is, tomorrow.

Now, the XNA Team guys have previously announced that XNA Game Studio 2.0 Beta Program would end today, so is it me or something is being cooked right now??!!!

I don't know about you but I feel there's a plot somewhere ... hummmm ... ;)

XNA GAME STUDIO 2.0 (BETA) IS NOW AVAILABLE

As announced by the XNA Team, the beta version of the awaited XNA GS 2.0 has been released!!!

So go and visit the following:

1. The official announcement :)
2. The "What's new" page, and
3. The beta home page.

Don't forget to check the new "Project Upgrade Wizard", the newly updated demo sample projects, and the "Net Rumble Starter Kit".

Enjoy!
