Joey Buzzsaw:

But is it likely we'll see it later? The Zune can already stream to the Xbox 360 so it doesn't seem like it'd be difficult to get it to work. And while wireless sync can't run at the same time as a game, that wasn't my question. My question would be if developers could get a copy of the stack which allows for wireless sync to modify and implement to allow a wireless access point to act as a "middleman" to two Zune users in very different locations, for example, while I'm in Connecticut, I could send a copy of my program to a friend living in New York, and both of us could play the same game as if we were in the same room (sans real-time communication, of course).

That would be up to the Zune team, but there are no plans for this now. The Zune only streams to the Xbox 360 via the USB sync cable and not over wireless.

Would we be able to send games wirelessly (i.e. sync games to our personal zune and distribute them wirelessly)

Q: Can I transmit the game to another Zune device wirelessly?

A: No, you must deploy the game to your Zune through your device connection on your PC, using XNA Game Studio 3.0 to deploy.

drew65949:

Let me restate: Would it be against some future EULA to distribute a program to wirelessly recieve more programs as if sending and recieving game data, just as .exe (or whatever) data?

As you said it.... you're asking about a FUTURE EULA. At this time, I suppose the lawyes are probably working on it (the EULA), so we won't know the details at least until the beta launches.

Thanks! Yea, We can show games running on a Zune 30 in the webcast for sure.

Will people that cannot program their own games be able to have games on their zunes without paying the 100 dollars per year?

Nico:

Will this work on the older zune.  I bough a zune right when it came out.  Will these game work with the older ones?
