After having done some simple stuff I'd like to try and code a simple 2D game in C#.NET, anyone have a good tutorial to get me started?
I could of course try and figure it out myself, but that would guarantee to end up teaching me bad habits and sucking away ages.
I know the basics already, so there's no need for a tutorial completely introducing me to classes and variables and stuff.

EDIT: And I'd prefer WPF or XNA, all the tuts seem to be aimed at WinForms

that's just a QA site

I believe microsoft has an XNA site that people litter with tutorials

I like C++ with SDL myself, but I see people talk about this place for XNA - http://www.riemers.net/

Rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated.

I actually learned C# instead of C++ only because the GUI was easier, but now I'm in doubt: is it easier to make games in C++ or in C#?
I am trying to utilise the easiest way.

Easiest is subjective. I think that if you want to have solid OOP concepts, start with C++. Additionally, C# is harder to make portable.
