      And it looks like DirectSound is getting (or has gotten) the chop, in favour of XAudio2.

      I guess as long as they stay C++ based I’ll keep my complaining to a bare minimum.

      grumble….grumble…grumble…

      Is it being replaced?

      Alot of people are using raknet etc as an alternative for networking. As for directsound i could see that going xaudio is much better and supported on 360.

      Hi Peter,

      I read some XNA presentations, and it looks like it is getting replaced with a Vista/Xbox360 solution. XPlay or XSocket or something like that.

      Can’t get any release info just yet, other than this:

      Yeah, if they pull support of stifle Raknet (or similar) with Vista’s firewall, etc, that’d be a disaster.
