      I would like to see more in-depth statistic tracking for Gamecenter. A couple that I am thinking of:


      • Minutes/Hours Played (overall & per game)
      • Favorite Game (Most Time Played)
      • Game with Best Online Ranking
      • Average Game Ranking (it would average your overall ranking)
      • Some Kind of level based ranking system (based on points, ranking, etc.) So, for example, level 30 may be "Game God" or something like that.
      • Nemesis (Gamecenter friend that outranks you in the most games and vice versa)
      • Screenshots (I know, not a statistic but it would be sweet!!)
      • Points per hour & achievements per hour


      What other statistics would you all like to see?

      I mainly want Apple to allow us to see out Gamecenter info through the web browser. It always takes a "while" to open up and load on my 4th gen ipod touch.

      What about messaging? Game Center needs a LOT of work, and it's so primitive that I can't help but think they are purposely making it a bare-bones service to leave the door open to "revolutionary" updates throughout iOS generations. "iOS 7, now with AVATAR CHARACTERS!!!" *yawn*

      Well, it wouldn't be Apple if they didn't do it that way.

      This will be available on Macs in Mountain Lion this summer. Game Center is coming to the Mac, so I presume it will combine the Mac and iOS GC accounts, so being able to see all the iOS features on the Mac.

      Anyone know how to delete a gamecenter account. I made a new one and now every other time I log on it logs onto that one it gets really annoying.

      Messaging GC friends would be a major plus imo.

      This! Also Gamecenter lobbies would be great and maybe the ability to delete games in Gamecenter

      OK not a statistic but I'd love push notifications when a friend overtakes me at a game.

      the ones which I would most like to see are Total Time Spent per game and the ability to send gamecenter friends messages.

      right now all i use gamecenter for is to keep track of a few achievements, and that's definitely not worth the annoyance of the gamecenter login lag that occurs every time i start a new game.
