We get to sell our game on Xbox 360!
July 22, 2008
Dude! Microsoft just announced that XNA developers will be able to sell their games on Xbox Live Marketplace. This is so huge, you don't even know how huge it is. And we get 70% royalty rates too! What's surprising is that we won't even be able to release games for free, which is like, the exact opposite of many expectations. So yeah, go here to read about it.

They probably have you on a lower percentage until your game reaches a certain level of sales, to make sure they cover their costs?

Actually everyone starts at 70%. But if your game is good enough they will promote it on xbox.com and/or the 360 dashboard. During this time they take an extra 10-30% cut, since they're giving you all that exposure.
Also, 70% is a really really good rate. 40% is good too. It's higher then what most game portals hand out.

you already did a game? no? so you're learning, it's not a bad thing at all.
An approach like "we're newbies but we have passion and we're working hard" would be much better than "we never did anything but we're working on the best indie game ever"...
A developer must only do his game, if good or not will be the players verdict
