    The
    Pier Solar and the Great ArchitectsShop-a-holicThe Shop-a-holic achievement in Pier Solar and the Great Architects worth 223 pointsBought all items available on shops.
    achievement doesn't work on PS4's version of Pier Solar. It may well be unobtainable for Xbox as well. I'm waiting to see before buying.

    Just to let you guys know, that the price is wrong for Rugby 15 in AUS, it's actually $79.95 not $69.95, well it is on my dashboard anyway.

    Is Pier Solar not coming to Australia?

    *EDIT* never mind about the Rugby comment, I see what you guy's did there smile

    One of the few times I don't care about achievements.
    The difference between me and you? You don't think there's a difference between me and you.

After checking back every day to see when it would be released I was sad when I saw it was delayed. I spent the next several months checking back every day and eventually got fed up with the promises. Then when it did get released on other systems I saw the reviews saying it was buggy. I guess I lost some enthusiasm and I almost didn't buy it, but my love of RPGs forced me to buy it and try it out. I'm glad to hear you're liking it.

    I'm wondering if they've bought 1 of every item from each and every merchant there is. Initial thinking would be that if you see 2 merchants that sell Berries that you'd only need to buy it from 1 of them since that's usually how it works with this kind of achievement but maybe in this game you have to buy 1 of everything from everyone.

    Haha, I pretty much did the exact same thing actually. Finally I had given up on it and forgotten about it until I saw a message last night saying it was out now. We've have some great old style RPGs on the Xbox One now with Pier Solar, Costume Quest 2 and Child of Light. Only thing missing is a Wizardry style one.

    Maybe I should put a disclaimer here and state that I've enjoyed every single RPG I've ever played, and that includes ones that people generally thought negatively of.

    So just to make sure I'm understanding this correctly: you can buy The Crew: Gold Edition and pay more than just buying the game and season pass separately, and yet you get no added benefit over buying them separately?

    Why isn't this available in Australia? Hmmm no matter ... i'll just change my region i suppose laugh

    EDIT: Hmmm it doesn't work anymore, great ... i've been looking forward to this for months now.

    No idea why they don't spread these things around, 3 AAA titles this week, and 5 ID@Xbox releases, madness

    Now that the Rabbids have been unleashed across consoles in all regions, there is a demo now available on the Xbox 360. There is also a trial for the title available on the Xbox One. However, as Xbox One demos can not be downloaded through Xbox.com, you will have to trigger the Destiny (Xbox One) trial through your console.?

I must have written over the link with the wrong url as I had Destiny open at the same time.

    Just picked up DA:I and Far Cry 4 for my Xbox One so I will wait on Pier Solar besides with Xbox One GwG track record of releasing new games for free waiting a bit will probably pay off sooner rather than later laugh

    According to this, I should have been playing "The Crew", this past February....lol So, it should read 12/02/2014! laugh

    Amazon has Rubgy 15 set for a February 10th release date for North America, and that doesn't seem like a placeholder date so I assume that's the official one.
