Back in December, I wrote in Game Development Called on Account of Vista that Windows Vista was not supported by XNA Game Studio Express, a game development tool built on top of Visual Studio Express for students and hobbyists. The fact that it lets you build write games for Windows is one thing, but the really interesting thing to me is that you can also develop games for the XBox 360 (which I own, thanks to a trivia contest at the last Ajax Experience conference).
The good news — at least for those of us with machines running Vista — is that an update for XNA Game Studio has been released, now with support for Windows Vista. I plan to download it later this week, subscribe to the XNA Creators Club (required to develop games for the 360; sounds dangerously close to the Super Adventure Club from South Park) and take it for a spin.
