Has anyone here messed with XNA?

Im just wondering if anyone here has any experience using the XNA game development framework that Microsoft released for the PC and Xbox 360. I was thinking about messing with it and wanted to see if anyone here has took the time to mess around with it.

I have it installed, and to tell you the truth It loops promising. They are making game development easier and easier. Try this tutorial It should give you an idea of the framework.

In the small tutorial Wizard1988 linked to, i see Visual C# 2005 express, so i guess it must work.(haven't tried)

Actually XNA does work with the regular versions of VC#. It only works with the free version
