Develop your own Xbox game and earn money

Microsoft has recently announced that it could sell Xbox games developped by the players through XNA framework and share up to 70% of its revenues with the creators. These games will be available on the Xbox Live service.

After Wiiware, the equivalent service launched by Nitendo in 2007, that is another great example of the collaborative work that is used by more and more firms to develop their business. By exploiting everyone's creativity and innovation, companies minimise their risks since there is no initial investment (except maybe the development and support of the Dev framework), and are multiplying their chances of earning money with a great game concept coming from one of their fan.

As web bloggers becoming real entrepreneurs and earning money with their own creation, we will be able to be game creators and why not become famous with one of the Xbox success ?

I think that the IT world is only at dawn of this new collaborative era and that more and more is going to come !
