Source -Microsoft has ported a very special game it actually regards as a game-creation tool from Xbox to the PC and made it available for download at no charge. Today, January 12th, 2009, the Redmond company started offering the first public Beta of Kodu, a Microsoft Research project previously codenamed Boku. Unlike traditional games, Kodu is designed to let children not only play, but also create their own games, all the while teaching them the basic skills associated with programming. According to the software giant, the decision to tailor Kodu, a tool which was offered initially only for the Xbox console, to the PC, was catalyzed by the need to get the program into schools

Huh. I don't have much use for it since it says it's for child games right on the website.
Although, this will be beneficial to different people, just not me. But, I would like to see the type of games people will create with this. I don't care if I play a child game. If it's entertaining and looks nice then who cares if it's made for children. :)
