The worst part of the game submission process is the waiting. You know about those 10 places where tester #24 can reliably crash the game when running off DVD in release mode if he (and only he) yanks out the controller at exactly the right moment. You know about those 200 crash bugs that are all marked as "it happened once". You know that at least one tester was fired for being a completely incompetent boob. You know that the publisher has a crack team of demon testers that would be perfectly happy to have your game bounce from submission. And of course, you can't touch the product.
Good thing I went out of town for Thanksgiving, it was easier to not-do stuff while I was out of the office.
