So! Wanna try writing a few games on your Zune V1 and 2 device? Maybe even have it be a multiplayer game as well? Or maybe you just want to write a nifty frontend to your music library! All of that and more can be done with the newly released preview of the upcoming version 3.0 of XNA Game Studio.
It does support Visual Studio 2008 of course but ONLY allows development on Zune and PC, there is no Xbox 360 support with this release. You can install this side by side with your current installation of XNA Game Studio 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005.
Read more about it here. If you run into issues, and you probably will, let us know so that we can fix them for the release.
Have fun everyone!
