EDIT: they really need to fix the buttons. < Message edited by Agent Ghost* -- 19 Jan 07 15:56:49 >

Does that sentence really make any sense? With Microsoft' s approval?! WTF?! I think it goes without saying that they could damn well make it anything they want!

That being said, I think this is a good move, and will open up the arcade and eliminate some grey area. I mean, a developer could previously either make a complete game on a disc, or one under 50 MB. Kinda restrictive, that.

If you mean by allowing the buttons to be reassigned to the player' s preference, then I agree 10000000%

I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

The developers/publishers are the ones with the restrictions, but I see your point.

As for my button comment I was talking about this forum. The quote buttons don' t work, neither do the bold or the other ones. They used to, we should be able to highlight something and press the button to have it do the action on the highlighted word. Instead well look. <----I don' t mean to complain but it was supposed to bold the last three words.
