Sort of. It's the tracks from the Coast to Coast version. The OutRun 2 course and hidden tracks may be hidden or DLC.. I'm not sure yet. I think there were remixes of all the music tracks on C2C that weren't on the XBLA version either.

That said, I'm not ready to race Pixy yet.

Sadly I haven't played OutRun since I had it on the SMS and C64

I'm looking forward to it tonight.

I'm actually not good at racing games, I just like them.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)

The multiplayer in OutRun is terrible. No ranked matches, and it loves to put you in lobbies where there's already a race going on. "Please wait".

It actually runs pretty smooth once you actually get going.

I just set up my own matches and played with people I knew, it ran silky smooth.

Hopefully that list of MvC2 achievements someone posted means that the game will be coming out soon. I want a damn Versus compilation disk!

That is very odd and a shame. Lost Cities is a good tabletop game and was a pretty fun Live title as well. I suppose this means the multiplayer achievements will never be attained now.

I am relatively new to my 360, but does this mean I will not be able to redownload the game now if I would need to in the future?

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)

I'm not sure. The article also mentions that Yaris was delisted, but I was able to redownload through my history a few weeks ago.

Before you judge, understand that I was just going through and adding everything to the queue without looking at what it was

If you've already purchased something, it will always be in your download history. They just removed them from the marketplace.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)

Hey, does anybody want to work with me to get the two multi-player achievements in Castle Crashers?

Or the Win 10 in a Row silliness from Bomberman?

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)

I'd be down for Bomberman. I still need the Cowboy & Girl one's in that as well. Can you create your own tournament for the "10 in a row" achievement?

Yeah, if you guys need a 4th for those cowboy/girl achievements, let me know.

I can help with the CC ones, Pixy, but they do take a good deal of time.

The Cowboy/Girl ones need four people, right? I can help with that as much as I can.

Hmm.. I'd imagine so on the second part. That one should be quick if somebody just bombs themselves ten times.

Cool. Thanks. I can do it a few at a time if needed.

We still need to play Undertow together too.

Win 40 ranked arena matches is the long one. There's also one for winning X ranked AYCQ matches, those are pretty quick though.

Yes, we do. I was going through it with another guy that already had them, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind being let off the hook or even joining us. I think you can have 4 players on it, not sure. Maybe you can do 2 local players and have me join over live?

3 heads are better than 2.

I'd be down for Castle Crashers or Bomberman stuff as well. I'll be free most of the day, so hit me up if you see me on Live or post something here.
