you can only compare games to the 3 friends on the main page...not any friend from your friends list. Also, the drop down menu used to compare all your games with any friend you picked.

You can still compare from their profile. It might be one more click and one more page load, but it's still there.

Scratch that. I spoke before I looked, assuming they wouldn't remove that. That's got to be an oversight because it makes no sense.

You can always compare to one of those three and manually change the URL to the friend you want to see

click friends, then roll over the avatar box of anyone on your friends list to compare.

Terrible interface, but at least it's there.

Yeah, I didn't like that change either.

So, now Microsoft will find out that we like to compare games with our friends. It's like when they reduced the friend list and you have to go through several pages.

Agreed, considering this is one of the 3 it gave me.



Lame-O!

Really? I was able to DL Rocket Riot and Magic (first the demos, then the full versions) around 11:45 Eastern.

Nope. I was getting the same error message that had been showing up all day at 12:15 EST.

Slowly approaching my friend limit. They'll need to increase that soon, especially once Faceboook integrates.

I really REALLY want to be able to group friends. Like I want a "Family" group, "DVD Talk", "Friends" (notice those 2 are distinct), and finally "Others". I have so many friends from one-off achievement whoring that I can delete, but sometimes they get all mixed up in my memory.

I too would like the ability to group friends into different categories.

Same here. And I agree, this is going to be an even bigger issue with the integration of Facebook. Look! It's now even easier to max out your friends list! Hope they planned ahead on that....but I have a theory.

Seriously though, grouping would be wonderful. I whined about this extensively on the OG Xbox because i had a sizable number of folks on my friends list to just play Phantom Dust. I didn't want to axe them to make space for people i gamed with more often but none of my regular friends had that particular game. It sucks. Also, the friend of a friend thing (using a generic Silver account) is a terrible workaround.

It's "ask", not "axe". Aren't you a teacher?

Well i never ask them to be removed - i give them the axe.


As for being gangster, well i do, on occasion, roll with Saget.

edit: And the current friend limit is 100.
