Theres definitely still issues, including a hard time finding Arena matches and disconnects during gameplay. Not to mention those who have lost items and stuff after a disconnect.

I had no problems with just 2 people, but with 3 we had a good amount of disconnects.

The Behemoth said they were working on a patch

Freak. Just had the bug where all my weapons, items, animals, and gold are gone. Well that sucks, I almost had all the weapons and had all the animals too.

Well at least that gives me a reason to run through with another character. Finished the Red Knight and the Skeleton.

I'm still playing GW2 occasionally, but these days I just hit every mode once and then quit. I still can sometimes improve my scores, but it prevents me from getting frustrated, retrying modes over and over without improvement.

If anybody has any impressions of the new games today (Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball, Shred Nebula, and Gin Rummy), please give me something to read today. Thank you.

Oh, and the guaranteed 200-gamerscore "game", EA's Live Score Tracker, is available for 80 points.

Thanks - worked for me as well!

I bought CASTLE Crashers last night and am having a blast - haven't attempted to play on Live yet. I actually thought the name of the game was Cattle Crashers...that wasn't a typo a few posts back. :frown:

UPDATE: Wow, lucky to get in on it when I did!

I haven't played any of this week's games, but from what I've seen of them in video form, they'd make a lot more sense at $5. For $10, it doesn't seem worth it, what with the backlog of excellent XBLA games from the last five weeks. But I'll have to try the demos before I pass final judgment.

Two dodgeball games and both are terrible. You'd think they would use the near perfect recipe that was created 17 years or so.

Sucks about the PvN Dodgeball being sub-par. From what I understand, the DS update of Super Dodgeball didn't even get it right.

You'd think a game with Pirates and Ninjas throwing balls at each other would be a sure fire hit.

If you think pirates & ninjas are cool. I for one don't understand the fad surrounding them.

They are not a fad. At least the ninjas. They have been cool for years and they'll continue to be.
But yeah, it looks like that game sucks.

We need a mod in here quick before this spirals out of control like "The Pirates vs Ninjas Flamewar of '83". This is too nice of a community to go through that all again.
