XNA Game Studio 3.0 is LIVE

We did it! XNA Game Studio 3.0 is here and you can download it now!

Our ultimate goal with XNA Game Studio 3.0 is to continue to provide easy-to-use, approachable tools for hobbyists, academics and indie game developers capable of producing the best games to be shared with the world on Xbox 360, Windows PC and Zune.

XNA Game Studio 3.0 is required to submit games to Xbox LIVE Community Games. Visit our Quick Start guide if you'd like to know more about how to submit your game.

It is important to begin submitting your game for playtesting and peer review as early as possible to be sure they'll be available to the millions of Xbox LIVE gamers at the launch of the New Xbox Experience on November 19!

Many people worked really hard to bring this to you and it would not have been possible without your input! Thank you all so much!
