In the previous post , we have talked about drawing and moving 2D textures on the XNA window. In this post, we will explore the basic architecture that XNA uses in order to separate the game logic from the sprite logic. So prior to reading this post, it is suggested to go through the previous one. The main code smell there, was the fact that we had to put all the game logic for moving the Ivan sprite to the Update and Draw methods of the game loop. Imagine how messed up those too methods would look if we placed
