XPCC

We need the following items to run the XPCC.

• XBOX 360 console
• XBOX360 Messenger Kit (chatpad)
• Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express Edition
• XNA Gaming Studio 3.0
• XNA Creators Club Premium membership (Microsoft's requirement)
• XPCC source code

We don't need to get:

• XBOX360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows -- XBOX 360 controller is connected to XBOX360 only.

Please understand that this is the unstable software. Please use the software on your responsibility.
I strongly recommend that you finish the Step.4 before getting the "XNA Creators Club Premium membership".
