I've downloaded a bunch of XBLA demos, and they're all listed on my Played Games list. Is there a way to get them off of there, if there are no achievements unlocked, or am I stuck with them?

I don't think you can un-play games

You're stuck with them, as am I. I had talked to Xbox Support about this, last spring, and there's nothing that could be done.

I don't think XBLA demos should have counted towards total games played, or total possible gamerscore, but it is what it is.

A few of the third-party sites (e.g. mygamercard.net (http://www.mygamercard.net)) that report your gamerscore have features to filter out the "0 of 200"s from the stats they display, if you want to track your percentage completion of non-demos.

Yes, I hate having those there. If it turns out I don't like the game, then that is to bad. It just looks like I am bad at the game by having the 0 out of 200 points, which I think is cruel. It would make alot more sense to just filter out 0 out of 200 points until you start getting some points, like with what FeralKitty says mygamercard.net does.

I also hate how it does that. I am an XBLA junkie and try absolute everything but only purchase a few.

It just looks bad, I guess. I have OCD, and it bothers me to have blank things on a list of things I'm trying to complete. I've only played one game and quit without completing it, and that was Rockstar Table Tennis. All of the rest I am playing, and am going to 100% complete. Right now I've got 25 games played on my list, and I've only actually played 15 of them. It also sucks when you use sites that try to match you with gamers you have something in common with, i.e.- the Games Played list. I always get matched with people that play the XBLA games that I didn't like.
