Updates to Indie Game Peer Review Guidelines

It seems I was not the only person getting annoyed with GoVids releases, see my Clownfish Aquarium trial impression below earlier today. Microsoft have updated their Peer Review Guidelines which all games must meet to be allowed on the Marketplace

All games must have a trial mode that showcases the actual game experience. If you fail to do so or use this method to provide your game for free your game will be failed in the Peer Review process. Games are NOT available for free currently on the system. This system is NOT a video hosting service and should not be used as such.

Hopefully this puts an end to the trash or at least shows some releases for what they are. Full details on the updates can be read here.
