Hi there Alexander.
Yes, for now the only way to landscape a game is using a renderTarget.
GetTexture is no more because RenderTarget2D now inherits Texture2D
so you can use the RenderTarget2D variable to do a spritebatch.draw(); instead of passing it to Texture2D
Easier right?

“If you want to make a landscape game, or render at some other resolution, the best way is to draw your scene into a rendertarget, then rotate or scale while copying it to the screen using SpriteBatch.”
GetTexture is no more!
How to do this now?
