    The fact that Lies of Asteroth even HAS a $399.99 DLC pack scares me!

    We've said before that we no longer cover these because they're impossible for me to verify. As I don't have access to WP7, WP8, WP10, Win 8 AND Win 10, it's impossible for me to tell whether they're a complete removal or whether they've only been removed from one store.

    For example, RISK (WP) is available on WP8 and WP10. We're not going to cover it just because it was removed from the WP7 store. Both versions of Shark Dash are also still available.

    How is it impossible to verify? If a game is marked as removed on TA, it means it's been verified.
    RISK (and Shark Dash) been delisted from the store alltogether, the GI team just haven't marked them as such. I could understand those not being covered, but the others are even marked as 'This game has been removed from the Xbox LIVE Store'.

    Backup for the game and DLC, just in case of something bad happening to 360 and / or the game doesn't returning to the marketplace.

    That's why I couldn't buy the dlc of Motocross Madness this week... I hope that's temporary. Goat Simulator surprised me as well.
    That version of Goat sim is delisted because they implemented the expansions as buyable DLCs instead of the stupid re-buy options people had. After the Base Game got GwG, people complained I guess.
    gamingirl on hiatus, new project underway - can't wait to try and raise the numbers again!

    Fixed that for you ^^

    I should have bought Narco Terror when it went down to £1.01. I'll admit I did try the Trial Version but I wasn't interested in it at the time.

    I'll update my walkthrough for Snoopy Flying Ace about it being de-listed in the near future in-case it re-appears on the marketplace.

    Among all of them, I only hope that Motocross Madness makes a return along with the DLC. Think that one has a chance more than the others.

    Dang. Was always on the lookout for DLC sales for Motocross and Snoopy... Maybe I'll actually go back and finish Snoopy for the base completion now. Hopefully can get either get people to do the online or find randoms.

    Crystals x 40000 US$399.99

    Jesus Break Dancing Christ. I wonder how many people that aren't lottery winners buy this shit.
    The same people that would spend even more than that on the five DOA5 passes ($450).
    He's not a man. He's the holy Half-Dead who has seen the Underverse and returned with powers you can't imagine.

    I wish Microsoft would relist Snoopy.

    I wish me too for Snoopy Flying Aces
