Asp.Net 3.5 Url Rewriting Solution and C#

Hello,

Can someone please instruct me and also provide an example of the best way to "rewrite" urls to more seo/customer friendly urls using ASP.NET 3.5?

I see the in ASP.NET 1.0 and 2.0 that most had to use url rewriting modules or custom rewrite methods to achieve this. Now 3.5 has this System.Web.Routing assembly included in it. Is this new assembly the best way to go or is there a superior 3rd party module from 1.1 or 2.0 that would work better, even with 3.5?

If the answer is use System.Web.Routing assembly, could someone provide an example of how to convert the following url (I have found many references on web but none address the parameters in querystring)?

convert
"~/games/game.aspx?gameid=12345&seasonid=2009"
to
"~/games/2009/12345

We are not sure how to convert the parameters to this format or retrieve the much needed values after the page renders.

Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply. But could you please answer the first and main part of our question? I'm assuming I know your answer but want to make sure. Are you saying that using the System.Web.Routing is the best solution as of today for asp.net 3.5 and url rewriting?

If so, that first example is a good one and would probably do me well.

Thanks.
