Gamemaking in C#
Ok guys, Im currently learning c++ in college right now, my degree requires I learn both basic and java as well, which is cool with me, but ive wanted to make a game for xbox live arcade for a while now and was wondering how hard it would be to learn c# and how long it would be before I actually have the skills to make a game in c#

Re: Gamemaking in C#
Well, if you know Java, you'll pick up C# with ease.
To me, C# is the love child of java and VB.NET. I don't think that was the intention of Microsoft though.

Re: Gamemaking in C#
Use the XNA Framework. http://creators.xna.com/
It's free to sign up, and there are 2D and 3D game programming tutorials using C#. |

Re: Gamemaking in C#
So how easy do you think it would be to learn c# on my own using whatever good learning book I can find and the programming logic I have and am still getting in school, and also getting affiliated with xna, will it take a long time?
