XNA and Linq on Xbox360

Question

Please excuse the newbie question but I was wondering if I used Linq in my XNA application, would this still work on the Xbox 360?

Answer 1

Yes.

Answer 2

Yes the Xna framework for Xbox 360 and Zune supports LINQ.

(Look in System.Core.dll in $PROGRAM_FILES$\Microsoft XNA\XNA Game Studio\v3.1\References\Xbox360)

Answer 3

Yes it will work, but you should be aware that normal use of LINQ queries involves using lambdas which will generate gargabe pretty fast if you run your queries a lot. This means you could have issues in the Xbox360 as the GC is pretty simple there.
