Removing the timed trial would scare me. We would then have to check the trial experience even more than we have to now. It would also open the door to a very subjective feel of a good trial experience. Right now we only have to make sure that they can try the game and that it doesn't give away the game for free. Also though the timed ...

Actually it only gets worse as you get better. Later games will have much harder to find bugs that someone will find late in the process. No matter how much Play Test and Reviewing it gets, it still happens. It is just part of making games and though it is always depressing and sometimes frustrating it will be worth when it finally makes it ...

[quote user="AzBat360"]Personally I think all Indie games need to go to a "once a week" release schedule regardless if you get to set your own release date. Wednesday is for XBLA, maybe we should have "Indie Fridays"? We all know that weekends are best. So why punish those that decide to put their games up for review ...

[quote user="VDrackus"]So does that mean Guide.ShowSignIn(1, false) is a mistake on Microsofts part? That lets you sign in to a profile that is signed in on another controller. Haven't tested to see if it swaps the profiles, but it does log out the profile from the original controller and log the profile into the controller taking ...

I think no game should ever use a profile that is connected to another controller. If Microsoft wanted this functionality they would not tie a Gamertag to a controller. Ignoring children or anything else it, is simply wrong to do regardless. It also doesn't work, what if I have controllers #1 and #2 signed into Gold and use #3 not signed in ...

[quote user="Pheel"]It says nothing about how Microsoft thinks about you. There are reasons which I can't go into why they don't show up and they are unfortunately very difficult to fix. However I doubt many folks are going to the All Games section to find content[/quote] I didn't really believe it did, but it is a way ...

[quote user="Barkers Crest"]http://www.barkerscrest.com/ Patrick, see my latest blog post: Avatar Golf flies first class[/quote] Glad to see that. Avatar Golf is a first class game.

I don't really see an issue of Indie Games seperated from Arcade as is Xbox Orginals as well. However, I do think that since the All Games option on the main dashboard includes all games EXCEPT Indie Games tells you what Microsoft thinks of us and is the message the players (and reviewers are getting). When I say "All Games' and then ...

It appears they must have run out of room. They seem to be reorganizing the forum, breaking it up alphabetically. Patrick

It's been since Monday. Maybe they are just behind but I wanted to ask in case there was a problem. Patrick
