I'm starting to get into XNA 4/C# development, and was wondering if XNA has a class for drawing geometric primitives: circles, squares,  etc.

Points, lines, and triangles is all XNA has built in, so for anything else, you'll have to create it.

Na you gotta make those yourself. Drawing convex polygons and circles is relativity easy but if you try to draw anything more complex than that the process gets more complicated.

You can start here with GraphicsDevice.DrawUserPrimitives.  You'll be using a mixture of BasicEffect and one of the Draw* methods on the GraphicsDevice class.  You'll need to create the vertices yourself.

You can also check out the sample on the App Hub site.
