I like the fact that M$ is doing this. There are some gems now, and will be more later on as more people see the potential and get better with the XNA framework.

I have pretty much given up on community games. It's a shame too, as some of them are really good. But, there is so much crap (such as a pong clone that costs $2.50) That I have just literally given  up on community games, as They aren't even worth the effort to download. My opinion is that Community games are the biggest disapointment of the NXE.

So, have you given up on community games?

 

I downloaded the title you mentioned, Aceball, and I actually think it's worth my time, it's a decent attempt at re-creating Pong while making the gameplay more challenging. But, there's no leaderboards, online play, score-tracking.... It's just a game. All the other stuff woulda been nice, but, it was only $2.50. If I even get 1 hour out of it, I think it's worth the price.

Not talkin' bout aceball..

A lot of them are mediocre, but there is one gem:

BLOW.

It just feels professional.
Good music, good ambiance, and very good puzzles.

I bought it.

I just wish there was achievements for Community Games... Sadly, no.

Go try BLOW!

FREEZE!!! GET ON THE GROUND!!!! YOUR UNDER ARREST.........uh...you're talking about the video game? No cocaine or anything, huh? Oh. All of that surveilance for nothing, you say? Well don't I just feel silly.

 

Carry on.

I second that. Blow is amazingly good and downright charming. Should've been an XBLA game, IMO.

I haven't even noticed the community games.


And how do you switch to the blades? I've looked but I can not find it.
