So I e-mailed M$' support to make sure I wasn't missing anything when my XBLA Trial Games were still showing up on my played games list. I asked if there were any future updates that could possibly fix this little inconvenience, or if my complaint could maybe be forwarded to the related department along with the many others that I was sure they received.
I know now that the update didn't change this like many of the rumours I heard about going around claimed, however, M$ seemed as confused as I was when I emailed them asking about it, here's the response:
"Hello Jason,
Thank you for writing Xbox Customer Support!

You can view your own gamer card locally. To do this, use the Me view. You can also view the gamer cards of potential opponents. To do this, use the You view in Xbox Live . Comparing the games, achievements, and stats of a potential opponent is a good way to find a potential match for game sessions.
