Restricts rating system to Gold members after rankings manipulation, but cannot cancel suspicious votes.
Microsoft has made some changes to the ratings system for its Xbox Live Indie Games service, restricting ratings to those with Gold Xbox Live membership, after complaints of the system being manipulated to boost rankings.
In a post on the XNA Game Studio team blog, the firm said the change would mean users “will experience more consistent ratings and a significantly reduced potential for abuse across the entire Xbox catalogue.”
