    I've read they expanded much too rapidly and left it far too late to restructure. It's not a good climate for studios right now, too many shutting their doors. Potential talent going to waste and we all lose.

    Games Room, while I watched a few Quick Looks elsewhere, didn't get any real attention from me. Had the price been lower I might have picked up a few titles but on the whole, most of it wasn't worth downloading.

    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Indeed, I didn't see Microsoft touting it much after the initial release. At least we didn't get this one forced down our throats!
