Welcome
I welcome any one who stumbles upon this site, my name is Brent and I have decided to start writing about my insights, experiences, about games and the games industry. I may also go into other subjects from time to time but this will mostly be about games. I also am planing on making this a site that will have lots of links to XNA related information as that has been something I have enjoyed playing with since it came out. Again welcome and enjoy the ride. more
