I can't say I won't, but if we are talking 10-20 points each, :shrug: $1 a weapon wouldn't fly.
|
yea, but what would happen if you were to buy a few weapons, and the person you are playing with online didn't...
seems kinda dumb |

I also miss the ability to toggle on/off worm changing prior to a turn. that really increased the fun-factor in older versions.

I'd still like to see Ghosts and Goblins brought to the XLBA.

i was referring to puzzle fighter, actually
but, its using a program called Xlink, which fools your PSP (in ad-hoc) mode into thinking theres another psp in close proximity, but in actuality, allows you to connect to others over the internets. I know chu was for GBA, but that wasn't online :/ |

Worms Armageddon for Dreamcast was easily the best version of the game to come out.
|
well, for people like me, all those extra weapons really turned me off of the game. when you have players doing impossible sh!t with ninja ropes, killing off a worm, and bailing before you can even hit them on your turn, it really makes ya hate the game.
so, maybe it was for people who are new to the series as well :/ |

I wouldn't really call it cheap since all teams had the weapons available. Plus, it would usually take many rounds to unlock them. If there are worms still alive after 20 rounds I think a nuclear test is very fitting.
|
Ok, this is bizarre.
My friend can see me online, but I can't see him. We can't play a game right now b/c of this issue. We've played several games in the last week. Any ideas why this would happen? |
Any chance he changed his personal settings as to who can see him online? Can he send you a game invite?
|
We figured it out. Well, I should say, the problem corrected itself. I reset my modem, router and system. He did the same. It may have been a network issue as I was getting some lag.

I saw that some people were able to get free XBLA games by registering their console online. Is that still going on?
|
That was a special period thing....
....they did send me Joust and Robotron for the oldspice thing today too tho. |
I don't want Joust or Robotron, but I didn't even get the email.
|
Edstein : sorry I missed your invite last night. When I got the message I had a full room (i was hosting and just can't leave, ya know) I tried inviting you later, but assumed you had a similar situation

The crate issue is still there. They allwas drop on impossible to reach locations and never conatin any useful weapons. On a positive note. I got all the aceivements and beat the challenges in one night, about 3 hours - pretty easy. |
eh, that stuff doesn't piss me off nearly as much. I mean, its pretty easy to call in an air strike, so I don't feel "left in the dark" as far as that goes
|
^ The airstrike doesn't seem that powerful. Played for a couple hours last night with some friends. Good times. My first achievement was the "three bagger" I thought that would have been one of the tougher ones. :lol:
You can still do all sorts of crazy shit with the ninja rope. |
Castle Crashers = Want :(

These are somewhat hard to come buy at some BB's, but there is also a coupon running in GamePro for the same thing ($5 off an accessory), and if you look hard enough, you can find scans of these coupons online.
Thanks, I searched for a gampro coupon but only found one that expired on 2/27. If anyone has a link to a more recent five dollars off coupon, it would be very appreciated. |
