ALL DEVLOPERS PLEASE GET RIG

It is very easy and helpful it saves memory and it is easier to distribute. It is also better for those people that dont have the proper graphics card for C# express 2008.

you will still need to install C# and XNA Game Studio, but after that you can uninstall it...

The XNA runtime files need to be put on your zune using the XNA 3.0 CTP. So there's not much difference between using it and not atm, except devs using RIG can safely distribute files without worrying about code thieves.

How about being able to deploy on 64-bit versions of Windows and being able to uninstall Visual C# and XNA to save a good amount of hard drive space?

It also helps developers by greatly reducing the amount of deployment-related user problems.

yea, that's all true. I just don't think that everyone should expect it. that's all.

Of course not, but it is one of those things that is not too hard to do, but has really good benefits. I think it is perfectly fine to ask developers to consider making RIG versions, but it is definitely up to the developer to decide whether or not to do it.

well it's hard to create rig for the games the first time, but after that it is actually pretty easy.
