I was very, very let down by game room.
The initial titles sucks and are overpriced.
Not only that, but the interactivity is so low it's not even worth it..
I guess developers put up their games that are too old to modernize for this, and then they completely rebuild the ones that are playable (such as the new hydro thunder XBLA title)
Which I am totally phsyched for.
I guess it just goes to show that if the publisher had enough faith in the game, they would just re-make the game, instead of just emulating it.

I never really planned on buying any games on it anyways, so the way I see it is I got free achievements out of it :)
I didn't really have high expectations for gameroom cause I can't get into atari games or anything like that anymore. I'm kind of hoping joy ride ends up being more worth it.
