"Community Games developers don't know how many people have bought their game. Though Xbox 360 evangelist Major Nelson released top ten lists of popular Community Games, the amount of people buying them could range from 1 to 10,000 - there's no hard sales data available for developers.
MTV Multiplayer broke that news earlier this week, prompting developers to respond through the official XNA Creators Club message boards. While most were upset the numbers weren't coming until March, others suggested that angrily pointing the finger at Microsoft wasn't appropriate, either.
Below are a few developer responses that stuck out to us:"
FuRuy has opened a Twitter account called “Project Alice” teasing a new game announcement on April 25 at 20:30 JST.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.

The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
I always wondered how a developer got his money everytime I purchase DLC form Xbox Live or PSN! I mean, how does Infinity Ward know I´ve bought their Cod4 map pack? It was on the PSN! Its Sony´s!
The only way for them to know is to ´´trust``?! o.O
Maybe thats why Sony is giving CAMPCOM their own STORE! Maybe...
