sounds like a plan with Adevnture, only problem i see is that it only gives u 1 Gold Medal which is the Time Spender, theres no Survivalist and Point Buster Medal for this game, thats only thing that sucks abou that game, but i think the MSP should be lower then 240 it should be 100 MSP.

Yeah, but the 100 gamerscore you get from obtaining the time spent achievements outweighs the 20 gamerscore you get for the 3 medals achievements. Still is a waste of $3 for some achievements, though.

I'll try this tonight. Bought this solely to rack up the hours, but the other method glitched out repeatedly.

Here's hoping!

:)

The method definitely works with Adventure. I used a rubberband around the handle to pull it to the bottom left. And yes, the game will freeze after a while.

As for a waste of $3... I used to love this game. Brings back lots of memories. Whether it's a waste is subject to opinion.

I couldn't get Adventure to work for me. I tried it several times, and each time it only clocked 2 minutes. Now I'm trying Tennis...

If you used the method I said above it should've worked. Adventure glitched on me a lot, too, so that's why I went and discovered this awesome way to do it!

And to the person saying that Adventure wasn't a waste: I was saying it was a waste of $3 just to get some gamerscore. I can understand if you like it because you had an Atari, but I never had the 2600, so I never experienced it long ago.

I bought Adventure and can't get it to work. Could someone youtube this actually working?

If you follow my tutorial it should work perfectly. I bought Adventure and thought the same thing as you at first, but then I experimented and found out the way to do it so it works!

But a video never hurts. If anyone here has a capture card, please video record yourself on how to follow my solution right on so it's easy for everyone to understand. Thanks.

They may have patched this, as I only get credit for roughly 5 minutes of playtime per attempt. I managed to eventually get bronze.

If you have a turbo controller there's an even better way, on Megamania.

Autofire A. Put controller down. ???. Profit.

It'll automatically shoot constantly which keeps you active and racks up time, plus you die every 2-4 minutes which allows you to cash in your time little by little so that if your game freezes/crashes/whatever, you don't end up losing all that much. I ran it overnight like this and racked up about 5.5 hours.

Any other game where the A button shoots might work, but I know for a fact it works on Megamania. Plus it's an awesome game.

This works, got my 36 hours. Thank you! +1

Like a couple other people Im only able to get a few minutes at a time to record.

kk...I've tried this. I think I'm probably doing it wrong. After about 20 mins...it disconnects my controller and tells me to reconnect. ???

This worked for me at first but recently it has only given me roughly two minutes when I kept it going for an hour and a half. I believe I'm following the guide correctly. But maybe someone could post a screenshot to see the exact place of where to go?

i love how iLazorz said "Game Room has been known for freezing after long periods of play time, so be sure to exit the game every six hours or so and rack up your time to guarantee you don't lose all of your hard work."

It's not hard work if your not doing anything... it's just time consuming not hard

But we can pretend it's hard work ;)

BJFindlay, You need a wired controller or a play and charge kit for this to work. Im having problems with the game its self not tracking my time. For some reason it only counts for a few minutes or so then doesnt rack up any more time unless i move one of the sticks or prees a button.

Any ideas people??

I believe this was patched and no longer works as it once did. Dang it

Has this been patched or not?

This is not patched, I let it sit there for 22 hours, and all of my time was counted.

This definitely still works, then?

Still works as of today.

This definitely does not work for me. It appears that a patch has made it so analog stick movement causes the timer to stop after about a minute.

These methods seem to work on and off for people.

If you're still concerned that they might have released a patch, you can always delete your system catch and try doing this offline.

I cleared my cache and stayed offline and still only registered about 2 mins.

Same for me, but the strange thing is that sometimes it gives me 2/3 minutes, but I also got 20 min one time I believe...so maybe it has to do with the way the game registers it?

that sux same for me. even cleared cache and still only two minutes of time counted. oh well :(

I can't seem to get it either. Perhaps I need to find a sweet spot to make the game think it's receiving a constant input of alternating horizontal and verticle commands. Otherwise it will recognize a consistant input and time out the play-time counter. Is this correct? Or does it vary between consoles?

This is a message to iLazorz: can you please check to see if this glitch is patched or not? It would be VERY helpful to everyone if you could confirm/deny if its still works or not

i have got the 1000 in this for quite a while now. i have never bought adventure. i did mine in Tennis. i started it up and then i put a rubberband on the anolog stick so i can just keep moving to one side. im pretty sure this is less complicated and yes i have also experienced freezing of some sort but ill still thumbs up = ).

It seems that it worked for me last night.

I'm not to 36 hours yet, but I can vouch for Asteroids with a turbo controller as well - turbo A at the turbo's lowest frequency, which will cause the game to play in roughly 30-45 second increments. It's an easy time spender gold (with the potential for two other golds as well )

I found that for Adventure, if you beat the game (return the "chalice", or the flashing item in the black castle, to the gold castle, which takes all of like 3 minutes), the game ends and the screen freezes. At this point if you rubberband/hold down the control stick, the time should increase just fine. I've gotten ~14 hours consecutive logged doing this as of now (~2-3 hours away from achievement).

This does not work for me, it's been running for nearly 24 hours now, with at least 3 refreshes (quits and rejoins) and I so far only racked up about 30 minutes. -1

cannot get this to work either seems to stop around 5 mins

It's on and off this, but mostly off! :(

Yeah. The solution needs to be updated.

For the PC version holding down the only the arrow keys(W,A,S, D) does not work. I only accumulated ~2minutes each session with the latest patch.

I successfully managed to accumulate time by having an object hold down Keys W and S AND I used a key autoer to press G (pick up/drop object). Of course I did this offline since using a 2nd program is prohibited. Note: I had the latest patch installed.

For Xbox users.
You need to rubber band the analog stick AND continuously press the button that pick up/ drop object (I don't which button is that)

In other words, XBOX users must own a turbo controller in order to successfully accumulate hrs + AFK.

GAME ROOM is cross platform. The PC and XBOX version both share the same achievements , however, I do not know if the contents are shared.
