Xbox 360 - MS encourages homebrew games
 

I think its fantastic news and further proof that MS have really grasped giving the gamer what they want with this console. I'm trying hard not to mention the S word, but MS are just taking this to a whole new level. This is what its all about, not sticking to the ageing rules of previous consoles.


Texas Hold ‘em will be FREE for first 48 hours too :D

Now *that* is an extremely smart move on part of the M$. Im sure it will increase the appeal of the machine massively. Especially if any emulators get ported across.
