      This is pretty sweet. Interesting to see the quality of the games.

      For 200-800 points i’d imagine the quality bar will have to be high to get ppl to pay for these over the pro games on XBLA.

      They should have let creators set the price. I don’t know what 200 points equals in dollars but I know based on the games in the beta now i’d rather have an arcade game. I already have the IET made games :) and there are really only one or two others I would consider buying.

      Quality needs to improve, too many man one man shows that need a better programmer or a better artist, or idea. But it is a beta I guess and should get better with prospect of making money.

      The prices break down as follows – 200 Microsoft Points (GBP 1.70 / EUR 2.40), 400 MS Points (GBP 3.40 / EUR 4.80) and 800 MS Points (GBP 6.80 / EUR 9.60).

      Now, for that kind of money the bar would have to be really high, given you can get the likes of Ikaruga, Rez HDand XBox Original titles for that price. That said you could argue that it is also the same price as many of the lacklustre titles on XBLA so maybe it’ll balance out.
