Good news at last. Looks like they're slowly taking care of their shot off leg.
Yeah, all I can think is that Sony was waaay ahead with pre-order sales.
You lot are still buying one right?
I am now. Probably wait for a price drop first, but if I can find a nice deal somewhere it could be sooner rather than later.
Me as well, for as long as they release 360 games.
I actually think it was the fact that PS4 not the vocal majority. If PS4 was the same price or had any of those restrictions then its BAU
Also, can't you keep with the all digital route? That feature is still available for those that want it.
Without the family share, it's not.
"Family" share would have killed this industry. If they are worried about rentals or other things then using it like most do with Netflix, HBOGo, Amazon Prime, Hulu....
would have really hurt it. since I am sure someone would have figured out a way to abuse it badly.
Sorry this console not industry. Mis-typed. would have love an edit button
People did it with five consoles on PS3 & it didn't kill anything. Believe it or not I actually HAVE a family and three different Xbox setups in my house.
Sure, sharing with my sis in Az or my brother in MD would be a bonus, but I can't even get it to work in my multiconsole house without physical disks.
And great, mandatory installs and I have to put the fucking disk in the tray still. So last decade.
While you may have lost those features, at least you can still play your games once the xb1 isn't supported anymore. Versus if they kept it the way it was you wouldn't be
able to check in when they shut the servers down. Plus you couldn't play the same game at the same time like some people thought. You can still share games with your
siblings, you just have to mail it to them.
And technically you can use the same disc to get the game running on multiple consoles. Its called hotswapping. You install the game on all consoles then take the top of
the xbox off and wait for it to stop spinning then pull the disc out from the top and put it in the other console.
You have to realize that MS didn't change the polcies because of us whiners. They changed it because not many were preordering the console. So the people who
didn't like the new policies greatly outnumbered those who did like them.
Just like I said from the get go, if the X1 servers ever went down, they just woulda pushed a firmware update or whatever to remove the DRM. Highly doubt they'd care
15-20 years down the road.
That's true, but cutting out rentals and the ability for me to sell my games on ebay and having to be online to activate a game kinda killed it for me.
I don't wanna start a debate on Kaens status, I just had to put my 2 cents in because I noticed it while looking at Stallions page.
I don't mind a debate here. I preordered three of them and I truly believe their plan was the future, but just too soon for the masses I guess.
No way I'm hot swapping anything btw.
I preordered both consoles but I'll be selling them to the highest bidder on eBay though since they're sold out if you wanna get it on release day.
I've got a big enough back log to keep me busy. I think the 24hr check in and the strict drm is what pushed everyone away. I think they should have made it to whenever
you next connect to live it checks to see if you gave your game away and then removes it from your HDD. But you can keep reinstalling it after you let your friends borrow
it and let you see it to whoever you wanted. But everytime a new console installs it, it either removes it or requires the disc.
*sell it to whoever...
By no means am I not saying it couldn't have been improved upon, but I hope Internet rage didn't lead business decisions.
If it was disappointing preorders, that I can live with I guess. I just wish MS had the guts to stick to their guns because most of the ranters were going to buy it.
Is this any good, been thinking about getting it for a while but have been waiting for price to lower.
Very glitchy
Not bad for what it is but i would wait for price drop
Just make sure when you play multiplayer and win an achievement such as tea bagging with quagmire, even though the achievement unlocks stay in the match till the end that
way none of the multiplayer achievements will glitch the 100% achievement from unlocking, i had it happen to me and all i had to do was catch the greased up deaf guy haha
Thanks for the tips guys, hopefully I don't have any issues with it.
yh ive bin stuck at 900g on this game since its launch day :(
Nicely done man
Thanks, was a long time coming. Have to get the new one eventually
How was Whomping Willows for you? It wore me out!
Grats
Nice - did you end up buying the double coin boost or any of the microtransaction items for that matter?
I bought the double coin boost right at the beginning, as that 5k achievement was a real pain for me...
Started chipping away at the Win 8 version. WP any easier?
It's pretty much the same, I might have found it easier on the phone, but that might be because I had already played it on a W8 tablet.
Its because u already played the phone lol BC I found the win8 version easier cuz I just did the phone. Both easy once u know what ur doing
Whats a double coin boost i been trying for ages to get this stupid achievement can someone give me some tips please
Lucas would be the one to ask for tips... not me, I just read the comments on the solution here and still struggled. You can buy (with real money) permanent double coins.
It was a lot of luck for me. I made sure to use the bomb power up to blast me farther and revive of course. But the luck part came with
The end when u spin. I got 1 extra bomb and then a free revive so collect as many spin tokens as you can
jammy git lol have bin trying to do this for the past 3-4 days.. can not do this at all!! closest ive got it 20 under 5kms
Ive gotten 4590....I freaking hate this achievement with a passion. Im talking about the W8 version but it's the same.
BOOM!
Thankies!!!
But not the Best in the World?
Is this an easy completion Jessie? It reminds me of sally's salon. :) which rocked. Please vote! Ita right up your alley...you being the Kinect queen and all.
thats awesome
wow!
Congratz!
awesome!
Congrsts
Congrats!
911!
Congrats!!
Thanks, I'm glad they had a patch. Made the rental worth it to get all the achievements
By the end you'll never want to see a turret again
^ This is correct.
I don't bother with turrets, too slow.
Faster double-box method?
Yeah, I find it faster to do vending machines (on maps where it works) as you don't have to wait on a 2nd person, otherwise just holding the sister for the match.
Yes Vending machines go by way quicker. I played the game when it came out and made it to 40 so I only had to do 10 levels boosting. It's not that bad XD good luck
Ntill you hit the right level for faster hacking a turret and vending machine is the same it might even be slower in total until you hit faster hacking because Adam pu
That's right, vending machines are better at low levels, until the fast hack perk. Been a while. Pretty sure the last 20+ levels still call for turrets tho.
Doing vending machines I can get roughly 3000 adam per match with speedy hack, I can't get that much doing turrets.
^this is right
Somebody who doesn't need the achievement uses telequinesis to hold the bomb and all you do is keep hacking with speed hack
The Royal Flush was easy. It's the tournaments that hold me back.
I went back to this after 5 years, did the solution on here for my remaining scenarios/tournaments and it totally worked every time.
Congrats. The Royal Flush was bullshit. 73,000 hands. Well done smrnov.
do u have any issues with this game any
You still playing that crap...
Yeah, Easy points though! :)
Nice werk :]
^ what he said.
:P
Woot
Aww you guys!
Just bought it. Is that a good game ?
I detested this game and its illusion of tactical freedom.
I liked it. You can play the whole campaign in co-op... Mp can be annoying though.
I found it hilarious that it included the idea of stealth, but if one enemy saw you, even if you shot him before he could call out or fire, everyone else was alerted.
Realism! Consideration for things like line of sight and proximity are all too rare... it definitely could be annoying though.
wd mate!
Thanks mate.
Nice! 99th gamer has a nice ring to it.
Yay! Congrats!
Wowzers
Respect!
Well done!
Haha...Master of the 25 point turn.
I'm really starting to hate this game lol
Holy crap, I don't know that I have the patience for this one...
See... Girls can drive... in video games. JUST KIDDING JESSIE! :p
Congratz :)
omg. :D
Nice!
well done
The narrator of this game cracked me up. That's a trampoline, why don't you bounce for me. Yeah...bounce for me.
Yeah that part was awkward!
Either this game was much easier on the Dreamcast or my reflexes used to be a whole lot faster. It saddens me to think the latter is true. =[
my vote is on getting older and slower
love getting older and slower
Is that an easy game to finish?
Yes it is.
It says that it's off the marketplace but I still be able to buy it???? It was 400 Microsoft points.
The Wolfenstein 3D on the marketplace now is Wolfenstein 3D (EU)
It didn't say EU, I bought it for 400 Microsoft points and I only got a NTSC console (U.S.). It let me download it but I didn't play it yet
I know I bought it last week and completed it. When you unlock an achievement it shows the (EU) version on TA. I also only have an NTSC console.
Mein Leben, great game
Yeah I bought this particular version LONG ago, just hadn't played it yet.
this was the title that got me into FPS and PC gaming I suppose. All my other friends stuck to Commander Keen
Yeah it's kinda a glitch like how the Sherlock Holmes game was as well. It had the EU on GoD and then same happened to wolfenstein because the NTSC was removed.
SAY IT ISNT SO?!?!?
SAY ITS JUST FOR THE CHEEVO?
Say it's so, and not just for the cheevo!
If you preordered this just to play Kingdom Hearts III, you are a terrible human being.
I preordered it to see if 0GS games were counting towards completed games or not. At some point I'll get a One...just don't know if this One will be my One.
Rich just changed it, but its manually set so stuff like quake 2 can still count
yeah....just read saw that about 20 minutes ago...*sigh*
jessie...when you used your credit cardon the dashboard...did you have to put money down on the console?
or can you just order it and they charge you the 499 when it launches?
You don't put money down, you are charged at launch.
Please don't preorder. If the numbers are much smaller than they expect, they have to change their features.
Low orders = MS would only goose the price, which they might do anyway.
Good luck :) If I still had the game I'd help. Had a really good time with these zombie dlcs.
u need help msg me?!
Thanks. And I'll let you know, mate.
You must have an iron will I find this game boring and can only get a couple levels done at a time.
I didn't mind it, but it's not great either.
Grats!
Congrats! ;)
Someone figure out that last achievement?
How! How! How is it done!!!!!
Never mind, read Buckswana's thread....
or the solution...
Hadn't been posted yet. No matter, got it done.
Hmmmm...I thumbed up the solution while I was booting up the game to earn this achievement. Maybe he took it down for a bit or something???
Hurray!
I agree!!!
Just so you know, there is a Chris Jericho inspired achievement. See if you can find it.
Wow!! Nice man :)
Good going mate.
Quick heads-up; Just In Time achievement description is wrong, should be level 5-12.
Saw that on your feed, thanks! I will give it try, still have to play through for pigs.
Didn't really care for this game, pretty easy completion though!
I preferred Raging Blast, the combat is a bit dumbed down.
yea this game was average, online boosting is a bit annoying, but if you understand this game it helps with completing dragon ball z kinect as its the same game
nice!
damn nice one!
How did you get it?
You just preorder off the dashboard.
Nice
What's your take on this? Like or dislike the way achievements are sounding for next gen? Grats on another completion :)
Living in Canada I know I will miss out on a lot of them, but otherwise don't really care one way or another.
I guess they were right when they said they were going to change the way we earn achievements.
Their are no Microsoft stores close to me. :'(
Wow
Can you cancel your preorder after you get the achievement? Thinking about just doing that lmfao.
^Me to.
There is one for Day One and receiving the pre-order of the exclusive console.
@ matdan12, I responded to that in the solution for the game. It's the same achievement...
Oh ok so how does one get this?
Preordering from the dashboard apparently. Hopefully it's easy to cancel your preorder.
My closest closest Microsoft store is about 90 minutes away, but it's free shipping, and guaranteed arrival on release date. I'm not cancelling this preorder anyway.
I have to wait for my achievement until release day :(
Bummer, I ordered through the MS store, I'll have to wait for this. And Amazon.
well done.
hope this stays up cant really afford 429 for 0G and an easy completion at the moment
So the achievement pops right on the dash? It's not a code? I wonder how it works if you pre-ordered thru Amazon.
The one on the dashboard is instant, I have not received codes for my other pre-orders yet, I suspect it will be similar, but don't think anyone knows yet.
If you order anywhere else you get the achievement on release day.
What if they "dynamically" add more achievements to this "game?" You'll have to buy a bunch of stuff from the MS store to keep your completion! lol
so this is same achievement that i will get when i get the console on day one?
ya
This is only the advantage of ordering through the 360 dash. Everyone else will pop this on release day.
I'm a little confused as to whether the release day one is different, you can get it through other retailers afterall not just MS Store.
The way it reads (to me) is that this is a pre-order achievement and there will be another Day One achievement too. Could be wrong.
How about a different achievement for each big retailers preorder and you have to get a box from each one for the completion.
Fuck that ^
How about achievements for actually playing a game and thats it not all this other bullshit.
There will be more Achievements like this. For example: Log in on Xbox ONE day 1.
WTF???!!!!! This new xbox is obviously already a joke???!!!!
Holy crap, they are already starting this new achievements bullshit.
Not preordering fuck all. Ps4 forever!
Gah!?
Easiest completion ever!!! lol
And most expensive ;)
Haha, nice one
agree!
Why aren't you in the T3C?
I was worried about completing on a schedule and I'm taking a lot of vacation July/August.
Gotcha. One team already has 14 bricks on day 1. lol Might not even last to July.
I asked him weeks ago but 20 a month would probs be deadly to any team !
lol that's true.
Looks like I'll be there to keep you company
Well i will be doing the same, which i think will be for the better, because the "one" is by far for the worse.
You going to make a clean break from 360 and stick to XBox1 exclusive?
No I play all this stuff. I have a Surface & three windows phones. I'll be using both for sure.
The DRM is still garbage.
You say that now, but if we end up becoming 'brothers' and are sharing games via cloud, I doubt you'll have a problem with it. Can't wait to see what 'family' means.
take a break, we cant keep up.
Is that game as bad as it sounds?
It controls like a broken asshole but not too bad.
Broken asshole ROFL.
I came here for the "broken asshole" lol. HAHAHAHA made my day. Well, that and the E3 reveals.
Haha!
well done!
Good job!
Very impressive.
Congrats! You're the 1st to achieve this milestone if I'm not mistaken.
Wow, thats realy heavy!
wowzers! good job :D
congrats
Congrats. That is one hell of a milestone.
First place by almost 100 completions.
That is an amazing milestone. Congrats!
Insane
Wow dude. Congrats!
Awesome, congrats!
Wow, 100 more to 1,000 :)
Wow, and here I only have 5 completions so far. Nice job!
Good show!
Very nice!!!
wtg man congrats any tips 4 this one?
Pretty!
Wow! Well done!
Sounds pretty sweet. My kind of road trip.
Actually I know a good chunk of those guys.....of course DreamTR latched on...no surprise there.
Whelp, I guess you can take credit for at least 200 bucks man.
Nice find.
@Mango: I figured you would know some of these guys, and cool Ryot!
Looking cool!
nice, is it easy lol.
Just saw your messages on LIVE. Glad you figured it out.
Find the hidden typo in the achievement description as well? :)
Well I guess it's not actually a typo lol
That stupid water bug one is driving me nuts... so many suggestions in forums and solutions on what "counts", yet I still can't get it.
Keep trying...you'll get it. I made sure I saw and heard Tink's comments after tapping the bug (not the area) before I moved on.
You figured out how to clear out the entire achievement list?
Yeah, most of it is just for completing arcade with all the various pairings, and then some online, 50 meta finishes, and a 5000 hit combo.
Time consuming?
Grr...FINE!
Well done mate.
nice one!
Ty, ty.
How is this game?
It's fun. A few levels make you think, but for the most part it's just a fun little puzzle game.
Out of curiosity, was the Chapter 5 a separate download? Or just included in the update. Wondering, since I just downloaded the game if I'll have to download it separate.
They are in the same update. Chapter 5 should be available to play right away. Once you finish chapter 5, lost levels should open for purchase.
1-14 i couldn't figure out safe always blows up WAY to early and i just got to 1-19. Any advice for either? Of course maybe some sleep would help my brain work....
19 I think I figured out. Put keg on shelf shoot canon knock down wall remove keg. Put it where wall was. If I didn't write it down would have forgot by morning
I'll have to look up 1-14 to help you. I'll get back to you on that one.
Got it. Dropped safe platform. Shot cannon. Moved barrels to pig areas knocked down rock. Profit.
"Rental won't be available at launch".. There's still hope out there. It'd be easy to set up a system with Gamefly similar to used retailers. Here's to hoping.
Buying used is up to the publisher right? So they could say no you have to wait a year before that Madden works used....
I waste my Gamefly and Redbox sucks so either way I'm not worried. They will probably have some rental type service but online like with movies.
I think the stuff sounds pretty cool. If they get rentals going then it would be awesome
The way I game, sharing games with TEN family members outweighs the few times I hit up Redbox.
Well, frankly not being able to sell a game privately is bullshit. Especially for collectors like me, they just killed my hobby
For me, discs is the way to go. From what I read, once you install it to your x1, you can download it from the cloud. So, you've got your physical disk, but can treat...
... it like a download afterwards.
Yeah d3r1v3d, that is one way it works, using the disk as delivery mechanism, but if you read carefully they said..
"Youll be able to buy disc-based games at traditional retailers or online through Xbox Live, on day of release."
So same day release on marketplace. Only benefit I see to buying a disk is you can trade it in. I think I'd rather keep my games since Gamestop screws me every time.
turn off vibrate
Hehe, if only I saw this before my wife gave me dirty looks in bed! I did change it after my first game though.
User error!
Haha. Stupid cheap AOL internet error more like! :P
Did the paid DLC update with this or not yet?
Yeah! Nice work!
Yahoo! Good Job! :)
How did you get this one and not the chorus in the background, this should have been done?
No idea, it took forever to get a bass guitar too.
I wonder, I got all those "items" before the big update where your manager bought everything for you instead of having to buy it yourself. Maybe they changed the odds?
Whats wrong specifically?
Loading is fine but when I go into the last levels it crashes, online matches do the same.
Luckily my save didn't get corrupted. :)
a nice game :) but I don't like the old "version": Comix Zone :/
Keep it rolling!
Kid woke me up at 2 in the morning and I couldn't sleep.. so what better time to lay in bed and switch regions on my phone to get WWTBM? UK version? LOL
Such a good game
Great game, was stingy waiting for the DLC to come on sale and I cashed in on it today
Congrats!! Loved this game!
Nice one!
Congrats, I'm working on this slowly, I think it's still going to take awhile...
My game glitched out so I can't get any stars. I removed and installed it again, lost all motivation. So congrats!
I hate that game. Still plugging away at it though
Yeah, this was my second play though. Had to wiper my first village after 46 levels. Terrible.
I sincerely hope they follow through on supporting the 360 for another half decade. That's about how long it will take me to clear out my backlog!
I would do the same....but being that the xbox 360 isnt going to be going offline right away..I think I will not.
Honestly with the lack of backwards compatibility and the large GoD store, I don't see support for the X360 going anywhere for a very very long time. It's another vector
for profits and MS would be shooting themselves in the foot if they did so. I expect X360 support to stick around until at least 2020.
Let me clear, MS is going to support the 360 for years! I personally don't want to have two boxes though, I have enough electronics around my tv.
The biggest motivator though is I can move my 360 with all 275+ arcade titles to the family room so my daughter can get cheevos instead of trial games.
I'm looking forward to the new games but I expect to need a 360 for awhile. My guess = cross gen games will stack, especially since dynamic cheevos on X1.
I liked this game!
I wish I could say the same. It is a bit of a challenge (maybe because I'm female though ), but I'm just not really enjoying it.
I've only got to finish 90 more levels though...so almost there
Lol, no kidding. I enjoyed the first 50 levels or so... Now it's just a grind.
Yikes. This sounds like a lot of work! Please vote Jessie!
Even though I have no idea what you're talking about I have received more rejection emails than I'd care to count...
Haha =P
rock on
Good job :)
Rage is ok
That's a ton. Grats!
Hanging my head in shame...
wow|
How you liking RAGE mate?
I like it but the races on Ultra Nightmare are brutal... but the graphics, story and gameplay are really good.
I'm still waiting for Doom 4 and Quake 5 ID.
Don't make anything else just stick with making those two games ID.
