Fuck dude I know, you could even open up a chat room for multiple people on the regular xbox and we still can't have multi-chat when playing games. How hard could it possibly be?

Microsoft have said in the past that multiple-person private chat is restricted by user bandwidth, and could effect games.

They should let us deal with that then, we could let our friend with the best connection host the chat

Yep, I just got my replacement back on Wednesday. I thought of calling them and bitching at them to fix it, but with this announcement I can wait a month or so. It's not like it would have been done within a month anyway...

They're removing old, shitty underperforming titles, so there's really no harm to be done. Still, I'd rather them just separate those games into another category along the lines of "Crap" and keep them available on the marketplace, should someone still want to buy it (or re-download it).

Wow look at how many titles would qualify for deletion...

I agree with you Andre...add a new tab or whatever. This shouldn't be a hasty decision as this might open up new levels of low for XBLA.

There are a ton of titles for XBLA that are under 65...of course that is just 1 requirement but still...

Glad they are fixing the DRM stuff...just got my licenses back. I have been asking since the end of September when I upgraded to the Halo 3 edition.

The conversion rate number is still factored into the equation which the general public doesn't have access (or do we?)to so the meta critic list is not definitive. Although its good for speculation.

Also I think de-listing means no new customers will see the bad games pop up in the list of games available for purchase. We can always pull up our download history and select a game for re-download. At least that better be how it works. (*Shakes fist*)

I don't like the idea of delisting games, even if they are horrible and no one buys them. Based on it's metacritic rating Aegis Wing would be eligible for delistment, I really liked Aegis Wing. The whole thing just feels wrong, except Space Giraffe and Yaris. They could definitley get rid of those.

It's funny you mention Yaris and Aegis Wing as they are both free...

I loved Aegis Wing but the Yaris game is just infuriating stupid market crap...please MS make THAT go away...

I still think removing it entirely is a bad idea. Make a new tab and clean the XBLA marketplace up a bit and we're good to go. No need to start removing titles just because their space on the marketplace is not generating enough revenue...

hey, i'd much prefer a refund of points as an option, than any obligatory deletion of content that i'm not using.

from the casual way that MS mentions this, it seems deleting things is MS's way of saying they care.

though, not for you though and definitely not for the paying customers, those idiots are trapped. after all, you can't leave, and you can't get a refund for all those points or months of gold access you purchased either. good luck trying to get your credit card info off their servers before it auto-renews your subscription, without calling xbox support and letting them know why you won't be continuing on.

it's because they care. for your money.
