Wow thats awesome. I mean not that express doesn't have everything most need but for mobile device development people don't have to pay for it.

Yea...it is awesome.
Im considering pulling out my windows computer to use the Game studio. It says it has a library of codes. You can make a game and play it on your Xbox360. It even says you can make multiplayer games, put it on a couple DVDs, give them to your friends and you can playtogether on xbox live.....the game you made.
