Our colleagues at MSDN in Germany posted a "simple" 3D game, written using Visual C# and managed DirectX: Rocket Commander. It comes with a Coding4Fun tutorial article, 10 step-by-step video tutorials (each 30 minutes), many links and resources and of course, the full source code. Feel free to modify the code and create "mods" of the original version. You can find some of such mods on the RocketCommander.com website.

You can also download an installer for the game only. .NET Framework 2.0 and the Managed DirectX version of December 2005 are required to play the game.

Here's a screenshot from the original Rocket Commander and one of the "Mod" Pizza Commander:
