Can u build windows phone 8 apps using Visual express for windows phone 2010
XNA apps will still work on Windows Phone 8 but I'm not sure about Silverlight. If you want to build Metro (yeah, I said it) apps then you'll need VS 2012. I think that you need VS Express for Windows 8 to build Metro apps though, which I think only runs on Windows 8. I'm afraid that I can't be more definitive as I haven't read anything more definitive and I haven't tried for myself yet.
Ha. Metro.Quote:
