I thought games had to be played by the majority of the site for them to even be considered for badges and I would be surprised if more then 500 people from this site has played those 2 games.

If these game do get added then I think a genre split is in order.





Disney Sing it: 0.16% of 360voice members have played this game.

Disney Sing it MSM3: 0.00% of 360voice members have played this game.

HSM3 Senior Year DANCE: 0.05% of 360voice members have played this game.

Personally, I don't think these games should even be considered for badges. It forces people to play s*** games when we could be playing something worthwhile.

Disclaimer: This post in no way reflects my views on genre updates that affect MY badges in any way, shape or form.

Given the change done to badges, and the fact that so many people say "Put ALL the games into badges you jerks!" the % played by the site more determines the place in line then anything. A great example is the Warhammer game, which sucks really badly,but *is* a strategy game for the 360.

That and no one is forcing you to play the games. With the bevy of guitar games out there, you can ignore the SingIT games and still make it to the 60% badge.

I just find it amazing that people want to keep out the "crappy" SingIt games, yet Supreme Commander has been in Strategy for years, Def Jam Icon is a horrendous game, DOAX2 has been cursing Oddball, HacknSlash is home to the most monotonous games of all time, every badge has some crap in it. :-)

I'm all for eventually getting all games into a genre. However, as long as the current system is in place, I don't think games that have so few people playing it should be in a genre. Now, whether the game sucks or not doesn't matter to me. I'm sure someone out there enjoys games that others would say suck.

@Dog - Don't get me wrong I will put up with whatever gets done to the genre badges (Mainly because I have to ) but regardless of weather games like supreme commander/Def Jam Icon/DOAX2 are rubbish (which I agree with you they are), considerably more people play them compared to say, Disney Sing it. The point that Rusty was making and which I am elaborating on is that barely anyone plays these 'singing' games and yet there being considered for the Music badge. Now I know just because there being considered they won't automatically be put it, but better to voice our opinions now whilst they are being 'considered'. FYI, that's all this is, is an opinion.

With regards to play %, according to the available data, 0% of the site has played Afro Samurai. The % played data has been borked for awhile, hence why the SingIt: HSM shows as 0.

Oh, and I poke just to get more people to express an opinion. The more opinions that get expressed, the easier it is to create a listing. Hence my original purpose. :-)

Should've seen the results I got when I first suggested Hannah Montana for Survival Horror...

Halo 3: ODST to FPS.

Can't figure out what to put Lode Runner in... maybe Puzzle or Action?

Thank you t4nd4r for reading the date requirements for the next update.

But yeah, good luck figuring out Lode Runner. Could be either one. I'm glad everyone's focused on SingIt, means the rest of it must look pretty good. :-) Anything major people want? I know Mango wants The Outfit, looks like Def Jam stays put, people get Spidey into Sandbox (Boy did I hear about *that* one just two weeks ago. Yeesh.) Any major omissions?

I second this. They should be added. They are just an extension of the full game. Its like counting the DLC for other games.

But they aren't counted the same way DLC are, or I'd go insane.

No it is just a game that shows on your card. Essentially its a game by itself. Just with only 250 points.

RB would be like 2000-2250 now if it counted the track packs like DLC, no they found a loophole somehow and are able to release stand-alone titles with 250gs apiece. Which I'm glad for, because it means I can skip the Country Track Pack...
...yeah who am I kidding I'll end up playing it at some point *sigh* I suck like that...

Looks like a great update. I've been waiting for FEAR 2 for awhile, and Batman and Shadow Complex are welcome additions.
