Retail & GFWL DLC Roundup: June 12th, 2012

Witches replay notice board quests

Written by punkyliar on 12 June 12 at 16:14

This week sees DLC releases for six Xbox 360 retail games and two GFWL games. None of the games add extra achievements to their list, but two games have region exclusive DLC. I apologise for what is possibly a completely mangled translation of the Japanese text for Japanese-exclusive games, but as the site doesn’t recognise Japanese characters, this is the best that I can do. Here is this week’s list:

Dance Central 2
• "Replay - Iyaz" – 240 MSP

Dragon's Dogma
• "From a Different Sky - Part 4" – 80 MSP
The fourth batch of 10 quests of the series, 'From a Different Sky.' Their goals are simple: obtain special medallions. But it will take all your smarts to get them all. Check the notice board below the Pawn Guild to begin! *Some quests may only be taken on or completed at certain points in the story, or with certain combinations of vocations and skills. *A maximum of 6 quests appear on each notice board at a time. Please clear a few if you don't see your new purchases right away.• "Notice Board Quests - The Chosen" – 240 MSP
Makes an additional 8 quests available at notice boards: 1 in Cassardis, 3 at the encampment, the 2 in Gran Soren tavern, and 2 at the pawn guild. Complete them to gain exclusive rewards! *A maximum of 6 quests appear on each notice board at a time. Please clear a few if you don't see your new purchases right away.Microsoft Flight (PC) (Released June 11th)

Those Queen songs are tempting, but I have a feeling i wouldn't play them. Rocksmith just isn't fun at all no matter what song you play.

Bastards...I BOUGHT the P-51 when the game first came out! Oh well...now I have a different one, I guess.


FYI, for those that don't know, you cannot 1k Flight by playing just the free version, BUT this FREE P-51 DLC lets you get a few more achvs with only the free version (as long as the Red Tails P-51 has the same performance as the previous P-51).

EDIT...haven't played the game in a while, but I don't remember the achvs actually being "tied" to the DLC. The game has 1k available, but you cannot meet some achv requirements without DLC. I would ASSUME the free P-51 would allow you to meet those requirements. The TA achv breakdown makes it look like you would have to buy the P-51 to access those acheivements, but I don't think that is the case. Free to Play games with achvs are so damn confusing!
Killer Punks...all that needs to be said.

Dragons Dogma: Notice Board Quests - The Chosen
Have to get those, but not right now, maybe later with
the rest of the coming DLCs!

"From a Different Sky" Part 1-10 isnt worth the 800 Points!
You only search for 100 Badges and get nothing else from it!
If you have one of those (Germany only) Codes then its ok, for free!
But dont waste your points on it, unless you like Collectibles! ;)

Armor & Weapons DLCs are good, specially if you are a Noob
and have problems with some Monsters! :)

Need to get started on the main game of Dragons Dogma before I even worry about any sort of DLC. Though this does remind me I need to get on a copy of Resident Evil before part 6 comes out. Not for the sake of the story but it would be nice to have it done prior.
I may or may not have been Izuna Dropped on my head as a child.
