was thinking about my main menu today, and I thought that having the menu in landscape and then changing the aspect to portrait for the gameplay..

anyone seen this before, is it annoying ? did it feel ok ? has anyone done it and have any thoughts about it ?

Personally, if it can be avoided, avoid it. I've used an app where the main content could work in portrait or landscape but the options screen was only portrait, it was annoying!

Annoying!!!!!! Why force your player to rotate their devices for no reason?

On the subject of annoying device rotation, I don't particularly like apps that are locked into either portrait or landscape and that won't let you rotate the screen 180 degree's. Some games I just find easier having the other way round so I don't keep hitting the home and quit buttons by mistake.

But yeah, what the other guys said - pick an orientation and stick to it.
