They probably are dealing with ... They probably are dealing with the huge influx of people. I signed up a couple of months ago and was approved within a few minutes. The SDK from what I 've delved into is pretty nice. It is pretty similar to XNA and fairly easy to work with. The IDE ... |

But there are sects of ... But there are sects of people that do feel that killing people and GTA are valid things in life, just like there are people that believe the same thing about whaling. It still occurs, but it is at a very slight level compared to a hundred years ago. I don ... |

Yeah I know it did ... Yeah I know it did happen. The problem was that there wasn 't enough content that moved from the indie channel to the XBL channel. Its is understandable why this happened, and that 's what I was trying to get at. Johnathan Blow spoke a lot about the red tape ... |

Yeah I was amazed by ... Yeah I was amazed by that presentation. Yes they 're bringing a game that 's already out to an audience that wont want to play it on a console a long time after its initial launch. Why they were one of the last presenters is amazing. Was just as bad ... |
