My First Zune Game

[MaynePayne]

.. are you collecting potato chips? lol

[korn2disturbed]

You've probably gotten this alot but zune blows.

[kemicen]

I'm sorry, but what the hell is Zune? :D

[TheGoofyInstructor]

@kemicen the best flippin music player on earth!

[333HELIOS]

this game blows...and i hope u werent trying cuz that was weak

[moochachi89]

lame

[Tovi7]

Umm....

This is from the book "Beginning XNA 3.0 Programming". I recognize the graphical assets from the book. The source code is readily available online. You didn't actually make this, you just copied a tutorial. You could have at least drawn your own graphics.

[devileye1x]

or he could at lease say first attempt at making a tutorial. im not sure but he idnt have to say it was his because its not.

[selsuru]

@Tovi7 I'm doing this tutorial right now and I chose to do my own graphics so yeah he could too.

[jamal1killa]

this would be an amazing like avoiding game,,,u kno. like make a time limit or where have progress, and then like have those things jus fallin like that, and if he reaches 100 or what ever he beats the level, and keep goin like that make things harder harder with each level passing, jus throwin out an option there

[matthewdoucette]

i want to port duality zf to the zune, somehow, in the future... i wonder what the market is like

[bati555]

wow this game looks so boring. There is nothing intuitive about the game or the zune overall.

What the hell are you trying to do anyways?

[matthewdoucette]

it was made in 3 hours...

[rulerofneptune]

Well intuitive, YES, it is! game-oriented... no. That's where Microsoft and Apple really seperate. Microsoft has great music devices, software, and music discovery programs. There is going to be a future of gaming on the zune, and right now, its just oriented to giving great sounding music.

Apple, on the other has (in my opinion) a pretty basic marketplace of music and plain boring software. The iTouch is centered around mindless apps, and not playing music. Thats why i'm a Zune. And proud of it

[bati555]

but what's the point of having a fun software if you're going to be taking the device elsewhere?

The software should be basic and simple(which im not saying itunes is, in fact it's horrible) is all i'm saying, with the UI on the actual device more in focus.

[Klaymator14]

@rulerofneptune

lol.

[ashberserker003]

zune has gay games doesnt it.

Its just my opinion

[CR1ST1AN360]

well people have to make the games zune has alot of potential but pople keep releasing these crappy games i want to release a cooler game like a shooter game kinda like house of the dead or a racing game ive seen 3d games for zune and there good it just takes time

[ashberserker003]

oh ok. i like both zune and ipod but yeah

[bandanazang]

dude zune copyed apple btw

[Gilbert13x]

Wow shut the FUCK up! Microsoft wanted to make there own fucking music player! What you're saying is that apple copied all those MP3 companies? They're just improving the MP3, its not copying!!! Fucking fuck tart ass bitch nigger fuck ass bitch whore slut fuck!!!!!!

[DentedPersonality]

There were plenty of companies before Apple that created media players, and Microsoft even had a say in some of them. Should we say that Apple copied Creative, or any other company?

Think before you post.

[milkflem]

bananazang: actually, Macintosh stole the idea from "Diamond Multimedia" the first mp3 player was the Diamond Multimedia Rio PMP300. So, if you're gunna knock it GET YOUR GOD DAMN FACTS RIGHT!!!!

[96odtx]

can XNA make more complexed game like on the cpu

[DentedPersonality]

Yeah, there are a few pretty cool demos that come with it. XNA can make games for PC, XBox, Zune and a few other platforms. There are limitations of course from each platform to the next.

[p990ias]

looks fun

[kingJaJa08]

nice ipod earphones lol

[iamshpongled]

i use em too! the earphones for the zune are way better than the ipod ones. i lost my zune headphones though :(

[milkflem]

actually they are both of the crappy quality, but the zune is better. I have skull candy now!!

[nTORNADOn]

This Game Can be Found In The Book XNA Game Programming 2.0 Form Novice To Professional ..

[David0Hawkings]

looks like a p*** of S***(the game)

[CassidyXoX13]

how do you play the game with one finger? haha

[Shonup123]

lol, he doesnt. cant you see how bad he is doingg

[xGuaPingSx]

zune with iPod headphones =[

[lRedBaronl]

lol

[TheCheesyProductions]

@xGuaPingSx

best of both worlds

wait nvm

it's actually worst of both worlds

[xboxfreak69]

do u use those ipod ear buds for ur zune?

[ThomasXp]

lol your joking right? ear buds are ear buds

[kjkolkowski]

ok think of me what you want, but the ear buds that came with my zune freaking hurt my ears because they were too big and they were solid plastic.

ipod earbuds are smaller and have a soft rubber seal around the outside that is super comfy and keeps them from falling out as easy.

i know LOTS of people who agree with me. you would have to try it for yourself and you would see what i mean.

i upgraded to the zune premium earbuds (which i got for free, long story) I just love them!

[idog2rs]

are you a complete dumbass? theres a total difference between most headphones.

why do u think some cost more than others?

some can get into the hundreds of dolllars just for earbuds. They make your music so incredibly better and if u havent heard good headphones, you cant talk shit. I think if you want an mp3 player for mostly music then good headphones are extremely important.

[NintendoForever1]

can we play games on zune 4g ?

[trevman467]

ya you can

[justinmanboy25]

i hav a bejueld type gam e and a texas hold em

[TPAairsoft23]

i got texas hold em on mine

[DannyToPhu]

it makes me want to eat corn pops :]

[Boyyxx1]

Even my Amiga I buyed 12 Years ago has better graphics and more fun in gameplay! This Microsoft Crap is totaly shit of a dog! Zune..muhaha..check out the iPhone oder iPod touch..better graphics than PSP!!!

[daman82453]

um no the iphone 3g has good graphics but not even up to ds let alone psp

[zerosktr111]

ur fuckin retarded.

[samjoelego13]

that game looks like horseshit.

[PurpleLightsaberAlex]

For those who think it sucks, make your own game and shut up!

[directorPlz]

i would rather to play with the music list.

[macosxrules]

this looks lyk CRAP

[Madrock7777]

rock rain is dumb

[pyro98711]

Very nice!

[mozrell]

i have space invaders and galactic wars 3 on mine :) games are awesome!

[Madrock7777]

for some of them you do some of them you need vista

[mozrell]

what? i umm don't understand what you said but ok, lol

[dismak]

do u need the latest gen of zune to play games?

[mozrell]

i don't believe you don't

[nybrave08]

Nope, almost all of them work on Zune 30

[mrxxx8]

go hump a cow, you didn't make that

[mrxxx8]

wtf are ipod headphones doin therre? ipods suck ass

[punk9999643]

why do you hate ipods? whats so bad about them?

[guitarfreakajg]

Everything apple makes is supposed to be better than the competiton, and the commercials certainly show that that's what they believe. Apple's brainwashed loyalty cannot be changed, and that's fine, but don't spread your bullshit on other users who know what makes a good product. Apple fails.

[jose2131558]

does that kill your battery?

[patio87]

You didn't make this game you jack ass! This game is directly out of the book "XNA 2.0 from novice to professional".

[pspboy23]

ur fuckin stupied u do not put ipod shit on a zune that is pure bullshit ur a big disgrace to zune makers

[RestrictedSprinter17]

you are a real fag pspboy...

[thejay2012]

How is this the feces of an iPod again?

[gunsnroses123456789]

lol nice ipod ear phones atttached to your zune. the zune 80 ear phones are so much better

[masterchief3k]

Looks like beat wave

[sodafountan]

hey, thats cheating, lol i made that same game using a book!!!

[Mxylptlk142]

Great job on making it so fast. Question, though. You were sucking that bad on purpose to show the gameover screen, right?

[fawks13]

howd you get that? i'd realy like to know. as a lot of others.

[MikeyJoe15]

NICE man !!!! I've got SirTet myself !!! pretty cool video though !!! unlike you I have the zune 30....which sucks for games because of the clicking and all....but eventually the new zunes will support the touch pad thing....leaving the zune 30 behind.....

[happymoder]

can you make a vido how you get games on the zune

[dwg1993]

dude i downloaded the software to make my own games but i cant understand the code

[VampyreDark]

get a book on C#.

[patio87]

Its a programming language, not just some gui game maker. You gotta learn how to program and have a good understanding of Object oriented design. Infact learning the language syntax is the easy part, learning object oriented programming is the hard part.

[zerofrk]

How did u get that game in there

[lbpshananigins]

its a nice game it really is i just think that its funny that you can make it but you cant play it very good. but definately keep up the good work. i look forward to seeing people like you making more games like COD4 in the future. stay in the game making business and keep'em comin

[afatsquirel]

you cant make 3d games, oh well

[soulcalibur22]

thats tight man

[MrGoodnightYaDig]

this and tetris are my favorite games

[jake1soccer]

Where can i download the xna file?

[veilx]

yea i wanna know that too, do u just use the windows ones?

[fedetedin]

nice!
