    Hey all,

    Thank you for publishing that kind of great stuffs.

    I wonder if its possible to create web based multiplayer games via silverlight's power.

    I am currently developing the server side for the game but i do not want to use Flash for gui.

    I want to hear that "silverlight is created to do it already" from you guys. : )

    Regards

    Right now, in Silverlight 1.1, you are limited to Web Services calls on the same server that is hosting the control. I have seen hints that they may support a raw socket interface by the time 1.1 is released. From what I have heard, the Web Services piece of 1.1 is clearly Alpha code and has a lot of issues.
