Question New Zune V3


I was just wondering, since micosoft is gonna release the new zunes with a games feature. Will they be able to still have all the old games that are downloaded or no ? Plus, the new zunes are gonna have games from microsoft like Hexic and Texas Hold Em but to make it easier for the zuner wouldnt they make games to deploy through marketplace ??? wouldnt that change the whole way of deploying games through XNA and C# or even RIGS ???

There is some question as to how the games, if even available other than the two mentioned in the update, will be available. From initial reports, the new Marketplace doesn't look to have games as a section. It's going to be interesting, but rest assured, in less than 27 hours and counting, we'll know for sure...

Now there are only 10 Hours, 22 Minutes left! I doubt they will change the way games are deployed for this firmware update, excluding the two included ones.

I updated my Zune. No changes in games. Everything I previously had installed is still on it. (Zune 80)

All the games will still be on it, but they won't run.
