XNA Games

Another one of my sites is XNA Games. It has games and their code for anyone to look at or download for free. Nothing is needed to play or download any of the games.

New Version of XNA

The final release of XNA version 2.0 is now out!

It has most of its bugs figured out, but is otherwise pretty much the same as version 1.0 (which I was previously using). From what I have found out, the code, that isn't already in a game template, is the same. For 1.0 final release games, there is a conversion wizard available at XNA Creators Club Online.
