Okay, I found something that's a little troubling for the future.

 

That guy is a developer for the Serious Sam games.  He says that MS is trying to start implementing a certification process for windows so MS can lock down what you run.  Basically they take 20%-30% of the profits from their app store.  And the new full Metro apps can only be bought in the app store.  Then there is a certification process that has to be gone through. 

According to the developer, that cert process is nasty.  Sounds like at the least it'll require more effort from SM to get passed.  That might end up costing us more as those efforts will be passed on to us.

For poser users this begs the question: what sort of addons would have to be certified?  Would characters, clothing, pose packs have to be certified and app store only?  If so, say bye-bye renderostiy as is.  Another problem is MS can ban things that go above a certain age limit if they choose.  So if they see you can make poserporn...

WARK!
