My 13 year old son is taking an Xbox programming class at the local community college. I'd like to set him up with the ability to continue after this one week class.
It looks like Microsoft's "Dreamspark" program is the best possibility for developing games that he can actually play on his Xbox. Otherwise he'll have to hack or mod his machine with all the associated issues.
Anyone ever worked with this program ?
I'm planning on bullying the school into signing up for it.. the promised in the class promo material that he would 'take home a playable game', but the instructor has informed them that this was not the case. Spending a week with nothing to show for it.. sucks. I don't want him turned off.
