add an achievement-like service.
Allow developers to add achievements to games and track on user profiles. You know, like the Xbox.

Fix Upload Bug
I'm trying to upload my .xap file, which is 19MB. It is unable to upload on both the "submit game" page, as well as the "edit game" page.
I am thinking the file is too large, although it does meets size restrictions. It takes about 10 minutes to upload onto my own website, but, when uploading to silverarcade, my browser gives me a 'connection interrupted' error at around 5 minutes.

allow games to belong to more than one category
the iphone app store lets you put an app into about 4 categories (max). Often a game is an RPG/Platformer or a Puzzle/Strategy, so it would be nice to have multiple categories for a single game

Allow Developers to Delete their Games
I have made a few games as tests in an attempt to get my game uploaded (since the upload process isn't working). I would like to be able to delete these tests. Thanks!

Recent added games on frontpage
There need to be a "Recent Added" on the frontpage. As it is now the same games tend to stay there, as they are the first people are seeing when they visit the site. So a "Recent Added" or a "Random games" on the frontpage would be good.

No "Contact Us" page on the site?
I have a small query regarding the paypal account to which the money will be transferred.. Do i need to have a paypal account prior to submitting the game?
i have searched the Silverarcade site for about 10mins to ask this question and i ended up by posting the question over here..

How long until games are approved?
I submitted my game Silverlight Rails a while back and it's still showing as being in beta. Just wondering if the process takes a long time, or if there's something wrong with it, or what. Thanks.

Start your service like MochiMedia where other website owners can get games for their websites!
It would be great to allow other websites to embed SilverArcade games on their website. You could have an ad in front of the game similar to the MochiMedia service for flash!

Show related games
When you are playing a game, show related game (just 2-3 random games from the same catagory or something like that) on the right side.
This is also a way to hold users on the site and feed them with alternatives to the game they currently play. Who knows, maybe the next game is even better? :)3 votes -

Integrate with http://xblcg.info
xblcg.info, run by XNA mvp Nick Gravelyn, aggregates information about xblcg games. If someone publishes a game there, and then submits it to silverarcade, xblcg.info should be able to show a link to the silverarcade version :-)
I believe the site is fully automated, so the solution would likely require some sort of feed, or query mechanism. But in the long run, it shouldn't be too difficult. Contact Nick if this sounds interesting.

How will I know that you have approved my game?
Or how will I know that game is not acceptable on site?

Add user taunt or challenge animations
These would be silverlight animations that could be sent when you conclude a game. It would send the name of the game along with your score as well as a link to the game.
The taunts themselves could have different tones:
1. Aggressive
2. Casual
3. Flirty
4. Cute
5. FunnyWhen the guy being taunted/challenged responds to the taunt by clicking on the link, he plays the game and then when he's done, he has the option to taunt back using the original taunter's score AND his responding score.
I think it would add a lot of flavor to… more
