Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I agree entirely on Magic. I have been having a ball playing the thing. I really need a more complete game though - one that will allow me to really customize my decks.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

If they came out with a disc version that had more cards, deck building, and if you could choose the mana that you wanted to tap/use, I would drop $60 on it in a heartbeat.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

They need to sort out the lock-up issues. I'm stuck on the co-op campaign because the game is broken.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Yep. Magic on XBLA is a blast, and I absolutely hate the real thing.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

If the game freezes, push in/click the left thumbstick to unfreeze it. I had the same problem with Bankshot Billiards too and stumbled across that fix.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I'll try that, but I'm not holding out hope for it. The system totally locks up and even my A/V receiver stops getting a signal as all the lights go out.

sf2hd is beginning to piss me off. Either I lose or the person I'm beating quits...

7/6 XBLM DotW: N+ for <s>560 points (30% off)</s> 400 points (50% off)

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Some of the challenges on Worms 2 are a blast (I'm looking at you, level 30!) .. Lots of fun, and my kids are loving it as much as I am .. I've never done Forts before, so that is up next after the challenges are done.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

For the few of you that don't have this game it is well worth it and it has dlc to expand the value also.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

:shrug:

I bought it a while back because I loved the demo. Turns out they give you enough in the demo that I quickly tired of the full game.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

That's a little disappointing -- in the past, the 800 point XBLA games that were DOTW all were discounted to 400 points. Hope this isn't the new trend (but it most likely is).

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Wow, they finally offer something that I haven't already bought!

I'm only moderately interested in it, though.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Major updated the price as it was supposed to be 50% off the whole time. I wonder what (if anything) they'll do for people who bought it in the interim.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Probably the same that they did for people who tried to buy Lode Runner after they corrected the price from 800 to 1200: jack shit.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I forgot about Lode Runner. Which begs the question:

What 3 games are you waiting on for a price drop?

Lode Runner
Roboblitz
Go Go Break Steady

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Penny Arcade Episode 2
Portal: Still Alive
Puzzle Quest: Galactrix

Apparently if you want me to not buy your game immediately, you start it with a P.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Looks like Summer of Arcade is officially starting next week (YMMV depending on your last few weeks' preferences).

According to Destructiod: http://www.destructoid.com/next-week...e-138760.phtml

800 points = no brainer.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

800 points = sold for me too. As long as the controls aren't too terrible.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

It's a point-and-click, how terrible could they be?

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

No mouse is a big change. I've said that since the beginning. I found Sam & Max unplayable.

But I'm hoping my nostalgia for MI will see me through.

It's a computer with USB ports! Support a fucking mouse, Microsoft!

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Sam & Max took some time to get used to, but it's OK now I find. I think the interface is different on MOnkey - I saw a video of it last week somewhere, but i forget.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I might just mention that there are some nice deals to be had on ebay (assuming you find a decent seller). I bought Puzzle Quest Galactrix for $9, N+, Uno Rush and Connect 4 for $6 each and just bought Worms 2 for $6 yesterday. Of course, there are discounted points up the wazoo as well. It makes the price point much more tolerable than it would otherwise be.

Send me a PM and I can send you a link with sellers I trust with current BIN auctions for Lode Runner at $8 and Roboblitz for $9.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

and don't forget to get the Bing.com cashback :)

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Excluding Peggle, I assume.

If you're interested, Pinata, I can send you links for BIN auctions of:
Penny Arcade Ep 2 for $8.49
Portal : Still Alive for $8
Puzzle Quest Galatrix for $12 (no more $9 deals on that one, unfortunately)

As I said before, from a couple of sellers I trust and use regularly. Send me a PM if interested.

And L&O, please explain how that Bing thing works, because I looked and couldn't figure it out.
