hier mal einige Stimmen aus der Industrie zu XNA:
"We're excited to have been involved with XNA since its conception. We
design hardware for developers so they get the high performance they expect
under all circumstances, but it's equally important to provide software tools
that remove the barriers to creating great content. The combination of ATI's
hardware and Microsoft's XNA software will let game developers concentrate on
what's most important: making blockbuster games."
-- Andy Thompson
Director of Strategic
Marketing
ATI Technologies Inc.
"It's the age-old problem of game development: how much time do you spend
on your tools and technology and how much time do you spend on your game
design? The better the tools and technology, the better -- and faster -- you
can make your game. The more Microsoft does to provide developers with tools,
the easier it is for game developers to develop better games."
-- Tim Sweeney
Founder and President
Epic Games
"We are extremely excited about XNA, both as a middleware provider and as
a game developer. Tools are the only chance for future success in this
industry, and never has this been more true than now. As we move into next-
generation development, the expectations of gamers and the abilities of
hardware open almost limitless possibilities for content creators. Without the
right tools, developers will not be able to keep up with the pace -- XNA is
what the industry needs right now."
-- Julian Eggebrecht
President
Factor 5 LLC
