Since when do we treat game developers like TMZ level celebrities? Who cares. If the game gets bad reviews, understandable, but if you're basing it on some stupid fluff piece that Kotaku or whoever wrote about a single quote that you now remember and base all your spending on, then you were looking for an excuse to hate on them anyways.

I don't care about the personal life of devs, I'd purchase the game if I like it. I'll buy Fez if it hits half it's price.

I thought it was a given that everyone owned Scotty P

right now im thinking Double Dragon Neon and Sonic Fighters with my 1200 pts... here is hoping something i dont have goes on sale tomorrow... i know ill be up all night waiting for the deals to rollover :P

C'mon Sparkster, Deadlight, or Dust...

i know, close to no chance on those tomorrow, but a CAG can dream right?

Phil Fish may be a "Douchebag" but Fez is still an amazing game. Probably my favorite XBLA game of the year no doubt, the game was pretty phenomenal.

I looked over the Ubisoft XBLA list and think the only game I want that I don't own is I Am Alive. Hopefully it'll drop to 600 MSP sometime or I might bite at 800 MSP since I have a ton of points now and enjoyed the trial.

Both Trials games are difficult but extremely rewarding and some of my favorite XBLA games. I bought all their DLC at launch. Outland is another favorite that I highly recommend. Otherwise Beyond Good & Evil HD and From Dust are fun too.

For those that it worked for.

The man is an out and out thief who doesn't care about the quality of his work or the people who paid money for it.

For the love of Cod, someone just PM this guy some links and run because this conversation needs to die. My two cents.

They've done it more than once, IIRC, so I would say probably so.

As for Beyond Good & Evil - there's no inverted Y axis option, if that's a dealbreaker for you (and if it even goes on sale).

Hoping the Ubisoft sale includes a hefty discount on From Dust.

The game is broken for a lot of people and since MS wouldn't let him release the patch for free he just said " it" and left it as is rather than paying the fee.

dont forget how he blamed microsoft for being the assholes who clearly told him the rules and how much a patch would be and then blatantly wouldn't bend the rules for him. So Unfair!

but how was it unplayable for some... i dont understand...

For Christ's sake, lol. Hasn't anyone ever heard of Google? http://www.xbox360achievements.org/n...-Problems.html

Anyways, speaking of XBLA issues, if anyone's noticed, Comic Jumper (which I've been waiting to go on sale for 400 MSP again) is now 1200 MSP. Any idea why? Pretty sure this is the first time I've ever seen a mark-up in price on XBLM.. really hoping this doesn't become a trend. It was originally 1200 MSP until April 11th last year, until today. So wtf?

Fez is an incredible game, and no one should avoid it based on the perceived douchebag-ness of Phil Fish.

I'm avoiding it based on the fact that it might not work. Or did you not bother to read the posts right above yours?

Do they ever offer great Christmas deals on Xbox Live? I'm more interested in full games than DLC unless it's Mass Effect 3.

In the past they've run a series of one-day sales towards the end of December.

Oh thanks! Looks like I gotta keep my eyes out.

It may have something to do with it being the scratch and match prize.

Geez sorry... i have been posting from my phone all day from work...

love how warm and friendly some of you guys can be...

EDITTED IN: After reading that article, honestly... can you blame the dev? im kinda surprised that it was spun like it was here. The guy was sincerely sorry and im sure he hasnt made enough money off of the game to even merit that kinda cash for an upload. This has been a problem time and time again with XBLA and I seem to recall some grief with some devs on the XBLIG side too. Particularly Zeboyd Games, when the update came for Cthulhu Saves the World they made it point to explain all of this and tell us how lucky we were.

I love Microsoft, I really do... but not every indie developer has backing like The Behemoth does. For those of you that know, Tom Fulp, Synj, and crew have been banking on that sweet sweet Newgrounds cash ever since cafepress went up im sure. Id love to think i could take the time out and develop a game of my own (i actually have 3 game scripts written and im working on a Fire Emblem hack) and throw it on the marketplace. Im just a poor bastard with a heart as big as his dreams though.

Also, im surprised there arent any Shining Force, Fire Emblem, Tactics Ogre style games on the marketplace... needs moar chess with rpg statistics...
