I'm making a simple 2 player game in XNA and started looking into saving the player's high scores. I want the game to work on the XBox 360 as well as Windows, so I have to use the framework to save the data. It seems that you save data to a particular user's gamer tag - so my question is, what to do with high scores? Save the user's ...
Hi, i'm just starting to play around with directx and i've read a few articles on the internet that use xinput to interface with the xbox controller. but when i try to use it in my c# app, i can't seem to find the correct assembly to reference. from what I understand, it's supposed to be in Microsoft.DirectX.dll (namespace Microsoft.Di...
Recently, at the Charlotte 2009 Code Camp someone was telling me about a project/product that would export the history of a XBox 360 Console and then create some kind of diary or journal for the XBox. He didn't really know the details, but he thought it would take the Xbox Console history and then convert it into one of the social netwo...
As I was listening to the Stack Overflow Podcast #54 in XBMC on my XBOX I wanted to skip back a bit and hear something again. To my chagrin the controls for seeking like in the video app weren't working. I then tried to use the seek buttons in the music OSD. No success. I next tried going to visualization mode and using the seek control...
Hi All, In the Xbox 360 I found out that I have to use D3DFMT_LIN_[xxxxxxx] instead of just D3DFMT_[xxxxxxx] since the textures wouldn't work with D3DFMT_LIN on the 360. As the tite says the LIN part stands for Linear, the description between the D3DFMT_LIN and D3DFMT_ for the texutres is just that one format is linear one isn't. So wo...

I imagined that publishing a game to xbox live would make it available all around the world. It seems that this is not the case because there are far more titles available on xbox live in the USA (around 2000) than in xbox live Australia (around 700). Before I commit to using XNA Game Studio, I would like to know the details of publishi...
If it is SOAP, in theory it should be very possible, but have anyone tried this in practice. Basically I need to write some Java code to get the gamertag for an authenticated windows live id. Microsoft support pages start by saying that Microsoft environment and .Net is required: https://xds.xbox.com/docs/1033/xbox360sdk/ws_requirements...
Is there a way to get a user's achievements list from Xbox without dealing with screen scraping etc.? How do sites like http://www.trueachievements.com do it? (they're definitely not screen scraping as they do not have my Live ID credentials...) I know there's the Xbox LIVE Community Developer Program (XCDP) that provides some API but t...
