This week, at the Game Developers Conference (GDC), Microsoft is slated to begin explaining part of its Windows Phone 7 tooling story — specifically how it plans to get more games developed for its new mobile platform.

One key to that story is its XNA Game Studio tool suite. This week, the company is sharing more about version 4.0 of that suite and providing attendees of the San Francisco conference with a preview of what’s in it.

The current version of the XNA Game Studio suite (3.1) allows developers to build games that can run on Windows PCs, Xbox 360 and Zune media player devices. Version 4.0 is going to support Windows PCs, Xbox 360 consoles and WIndows Phone 7 Series phones (but not the Zune HD), according to a blog post by Michael Klucher, Lead Program Manger for the XNA Development Platform.

The only games I want to see on a mobile device like that is Solitaire....

Trying to play a Halo style game on a phone is so far beyond stupid.....
No one is THAT bored.

I think they trying to catch up to the Ipod/phone in that respect.

My other half has an Ipod and it is quite good for playing silly games on, but like the lord himself says, trying to play a serious game on a phone would be lacking in good sense really.
