Discuss Midterm Project

2D Project will be your midterm it will be worth 20 points. It will also be featured in the Manifest Show. I'd like to make an XNA Game Room (maybe a game hall) and just setup a bunch of machines playing your games. If you are an senior I'd like you to enter it in the Seniors Show. The senior show will be in the hokin and your project will need to build for XBox.
