For some reason I didn't put together that this would be launching at the same time. Sounds exciting.

me thinks its upto the creators. but then again MS has the right to charge some amount for it i would imagine as they will be hosting the game in the end.

I know some part of the process was creators being able to charge for the games. I'm sure not all of them will.
I don't think "community" implies they'll be free. It just implies anyone can try and make one.

That's a little harsh Chen! Why should hobbiest/semi-pro game developers not be compensated for their work?

Chen. No community games are 200, 400 or 800 MSP depending on what the developer chooses. They all have free trials though just like XBLA games

I downloaded all the free-trial creator games that were posted after this was announced this spring. They were awesome. This is one of the most underrated parts of the new Xbox update.

Oh wow, this is HUGE. Seriously, I don´t think we totally understand how amazing this is. Look at the iPhone. As soon as it was opened up, its been BLOOMING. Love it. Thank you Microsoft! (I dont say that often) =P

There's going to be a lot of crap games (I should know I'm putting the final touches on one now). It would be nice if you didn't have to charge money for your game. But at least all games will have a free trial.
