Your own 360 game on Microsoft’s Xbox Live
Can you imagine having a game you designed on Microsoft’s Xbox Live and even better than that being able to charge people for it as well.
Chris Satchell, Microsoft’s chief technology officer has revealed new plans for gamers being able to create games with the XNA initiative.
The project has now been given the name “Xbox LIVE Community Games” and will let Xbox 360 gamers create games via XNA, these developers will benefit by being able to charge for the games and consumers benefit with more games choice.
This will create a much better games community on Xbox Live, What’s your view?
The game developers will be able to choose from three price plans for the sale of their games, these will be 800 Microsoft Points ($10.00), 400 ($5.00) or 200 ($2.50). The game creators will get to keep up to 70 percent of the revenue from their games.
The cheaper 200 MS point games will have a size limit of 50MB but the 800 and 400-point games will have a size limit of 150MB.
The games in Xbox LIVE Community Games will have demos and trailers.
