You guys should pick up the UDK with me. I've been dealing with game development for a while, but recently picked this up. A lot of xbox games are made with this (Such as Dishonored, Gears Of War, Mass Effect, and many more).
If you guys have an interest in game development, this is the future of console gaming development.

There's 100's of tutorials on youtube, and if you're really interested, get at me and I can get you started as well.
