If Ugly Americans ever goes on sale I'll buy it in a heartbeat.

Also, the Day 1 Wrecked DLC is disappointing to me, seeing as the game was released today for 1200 MSP with six courses and the add-on gives us two more courses for 400 MSP. That's just not right.

Wrecked cost 1200 msp and has day 1 dlc for another 400 msp with 2 extra tracks...I boycott this game. Also, I remember reading a dev diary where they stated the game only has 6 track because they wanted to perfect the tracks instead of putting too many lower quality tracks. Looks like that was a bs lie and they just wants more msp.
MH The Rockstar - 1 hour "reveal" that really didn't reveal much. Need more details before I can form an objective opinion.

Might pick up the Joe Danger DLC since I got the game on sale. Worms will have to wait - still need to finish up the last game!

Nothing I'm interested in :/ Did remind me that I should pick up Ugly Americans sometime though. Would love to see it as DotW but doesn't seem like a game that would make the cut.

Ugly Americans is worth $10 don't wait on a DOTW that probably won't happen. I wish the DLC had achievements so it would force me to get it.

Has anyone here played Under Defeat HD and is it navigateable by someone that doesn't speak Japanese?

Dammit no achievements for Ugly Americans..........


As for Rhythm Party I should start buying these packs to see if I can make the last achievement easier since it is kind of impossible as Kinect is stubborn to look at my hips.....yeah guys shouldn't say that........

I was going to write this and the Worms DLC articles around noon GMT, but I held off in the hope that the achievements had appeared for Worms by the time I got back from town. I came back to find no achievements, but instead found DLC for Ugly Americans and Joe Danger that didn't exist with the first marketplace update this morning.

Although there are no achievements tied to it, does that mean that Ugly Americans has been patched and fixed that stupid glitch that occurs after you reach level 60?
