Professionally, over a hundred, mostly for Xbox LIVE Arcade. I worked at a 3rd party testing house for about 4 years and am just wrapping up my first contract at MS.
Non-work related (PC, emulated)...probably hundreds and hundreds...way too many since about 1998 when Nesticle sparked my gaming passion again!
Anyway, when a dev thinks[b] they've resolved some bugs with a change, they mark them as fixed, and the tester verifies the fix and then closes the bug if indeed fixed or reactivates the bug if it still repros. That is the process. In the case here, I just marked them (greyed) as "fixed". And based on feedback, would either reopen them as I did or just wipe the whole thing out entirely.
Yes, I am selfish and care mostly about SFA3, but I'm not a jerk....we'll not that big of one at least.

I also know this : NEVER ASSUME A PROBLEM IS FIXED UNTIL YOU TEST TO MAKE SURE .
How many games have you tested ?
