I am interested in learning how to create indie games for the xbox 360
If you want to make Indie Games for the Xbox 360 you need, Visual Studio [express edition is fine it's free] [1] you also need the Microsoft XNA developer suite [2] which is used for making Games on the Xbox 360, Phone 7, Windows and Zune devices.
You'll also need to know how to program in C# as that is the language of choice for XNA. I recommend this book [3] to learn C# - Sams Teach Yourself the C# Language in 21 Days - you don't need to learn everything about C# in fact doing so would hinder you, you just need to learn the basic concepts and how it works, the XNA framework takes C# and builds upon it and holds its own quirks.
You should also check out the Microsoft App Hub [4] [formerly XNA creators club] which holds most of the relevant tools and documentation and tutorials you will need to get started and the Xbox developer centre [5]
Finally if you want a textbook approach then I would also recommend you read [6] Learning XNA. Although I would note this book is aimed at beginners to XNA and Xbox Development and if you are not a beginner you will find it irritating.
