Are those videos still usefull for using XNA (the basics) and will there be similar XNA videos released?

Thank you for your time.

These videos are not about XNA but depending on how familar you are with programming games, I think they could you be really useful for learning some game programming concepts.

Those videos do not get much into the code of the engine. They can give insite on how the game was programed and ideas on how to program your own. For me it was good to see what I was and was not doing in line with other programmers.

Watching them and they are pretty good. I really hope they make some with XNA using camtasia.

We certainly have some plans to do some webcasts of our own, (late september with more details coming soon) but right now we're just focusing on getting the beta out to you :-)

Yeah Im pumped. I remember filling out a survey from Gamedev about MS and asking about what I knew about tourqe, since then I guessed MS was doing something like it. Will be exciting!
