App Store from Device Alphabetized?

[Mr. Charley]

Has anyone noticed that when browsing the app store's new releases from their device that it's now alphabetized?
I'm pretty sure this is somewhat recent, and has some implications...
If I'm not mistaken, this was done back in the day when the app store first opened and everyone was then releasing games with the letter a to be sure they were seen first. It was changed to avoid this phenomenon, and I thought the app store had fixed that but it seems to be back.

Anyone else notice this or have I just not noticed this for a while?
Will this be the restart of new releases all starting with the letter "A"?

[Jim]

nope, isn't like that in my device...

[NineSwords]

In mine neither. But im not on the latest firmware.

[Mr. Charley]

Seriously? Are you guys messing with me?

I'm on 3.1.2, haven't updated to 3.1.3, but are you all checking under all games, new releases from your device (not itunes or anywhere else! lol)?

Did I dream this or something? If I did, I need some serious help, but I could swear it was the case. I'm on a Touch with no access to wifi until later tonight to double check.
Anyone here can confirm what I believe I noticed????
Please...for my own sake....please.....

Okay. When you go into categories, games, all games it's ordered by alphabet.

All oher lists are still as they were.

AHA! I knew it!
Thanks for clearing that up, and allowing me to maintain a small amount of self-respect.

So, will Grand Theft Auto be renamed to A Grand Theft Auto? Will Zombies vs Pizza be renamed to A Zombies vs Pizza...

I don't think that a given the shear amount of apps , too many people actually browse the "all games". I guess the spot where the most purchases are made are the top 25/50 lists and the highlight picks.

I actually have never used the categories view.

[Thunderclaw]

I'm confused.

Nowhere on the AppStore is it in alphabetical order for me.

In any case, I only browse for apps in the Top 50 and Featured ones.

Going through hundred of pages to find a little gem in the thousands of apps is so tasking, especially when going into categories (never got past A! LOL). Is there a way to see all new apps, other than the new & noteworthy ones?

[NineSwords]

There is a tap to sort by date.
