Microsoft XNA Game Studio

XNA Game Studio is a programming environment that was designed to help advanced computer users such as software developers create games for Windows, Xbox 360 and Windows Phone with Visual Studio. This pack also includes the XNA Framework, which is a set of managed libraries that were designed for game developing with the Microsoft .NET Framework.
This pack also provides users with tools that can help them add graphic and audio contents to their games. The XNA Framework was designed to follow the .NET Framework patterns. Therefore, users can benefit from the capabilities of both XNA Framework and .NET Framework, which provides them with a more rich game development experience.
Deploying the environment to the target PC can be accomplished by double-clicking the installer and following the on-screen instructions provided by the setup pack, as the rest of the process is carried out automatically, without any further assistance.
In order for the installation to succeed, users must install the Windows Phone SDK and Visual Studio 2010 or Visual C# 2010 Express beforehand. The Microsoft Windows Phone SDK component is a requirement since the Microsoft Visual C# 2010 Express Edition is not compatible with Windows Phone development, but only with Windows and Xbox 360.System requirementsHardware requirements are identical to those for Visual Studio 2005 plus a graphics card that supports DirectX 9.0c and Shader Model 1.1 (Shader Model 2.0 is recommended and required for some Starter Kits).
The .NET Framework version 1.1 is required if you intend to use the Microsoft Cross-Platform Audio Creation Tool (XACT) for audio authoring.
