GoVids seems to be the epitomy of the Shovelware developer. Take Rachel Star Stunt Show: this appears to be a simple video player with some clips of Rachel Star, a young stunt-girl who looks to be putting a good portfolio for when MTV decides they need a followup to Jackass. ... There's another element to this as well: as far as I'm aware, this is the first video player on XBIG. Which means that GoVid should be given at least some credit for introducing something new - unfortunately, it also means that the floodgates have opened and XBIG is likely to be drowned under a wave of cheap and nasty videos. Oh well. To quote my review on the Rachel Star Stunt Show:

There’s another element to this as well: as far as I’m aware, this is the first video player on XBIG. Which means that GoVid should be given at least some credit for introducing something new – unfortunately, it also means that the floodgates have opened and XBIG is likely to be drowned under a wave of cheap and nasty videos.

Oh well.

Really? Tsk tsk I know it was always inevitable that already popular Flash games would start making the move to XNA (and we’ll soon see a flood as the profile of this service rises) but…..the pricing….
