GOTM - MAY 2009 - 3RD PLACE!

If you haven't heard yet, Microsoft will be offering amateur game developers the tools to make xbox360 games for only $99 a year. Already, 12 year olds everywhere are wetting their pants thinking that they can now make games.

Anyway, I think it'd be cool (although very unlikely) if this was somehow the missing link between getting click games on consoles. Microsoft plans on having a sort of Youtube(ick) type setup for hobbyists to share their games. Start nagging Clickteam to create a program to convert mmf files into a format that can be understood by the development programs microsoft will be offering (or something. . . god knows I don't know shit about programming or the infinite barriers that are in between getting a click game to run on a console)

Well, the programmer GarageGames is using is a version of C#. It looks pretty cool, but the bad part is that you need to pay the membership fee just to play other people's indie games.
