So I went for the -$1,000,000 Jack Attack achievement last night. Here's how I did it, if you're interested.
First, move your save game to a USB stick and then unplug it from the system so the game can't find it and is forced to create a new one. (Alternatively, you can just change the storage device under options, but then you might confuse yourself later). Once you have a fresh save that you can screw up with a huge loss, just play through a game until the J.A. Here you'll obviously be pounding the A button while wrong answers are up. I found I could get 3 or 4 pushes in safely for each wrong answer. Once you see the right answer, obviously don't do anything until it disappears. After it's gone, you can just pound away on A because it won't come back for the current item. This is where you get most of your wrong answers since you can hit it with reckless abandon. If you just pound A the whole time and let yourself get the right answers, you'll find that you don't have enough time to hit the full million. Doing it that way, I couldn't get more than $750,000. Doing it more attentively, I ended up with almost -$1.4M. Once you're done, exit the game and delete the save file you just played from and restore your original and you'll be free from that blemish on your average and rating. |

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
I'm still a little confused by the ranking system in the game, not that it's very important other than achievement-wise.
I ranked up to Unicorn last night, with a full bar. After my next online game, which I won against 3 other people, the bar had decreased a little and I was second-highest rank. I'm thinking it might have to do with correct vs. incorrect responses or something. |
Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
Next time you rank up to that, send me an invite so I can beat you for that achievement. I'll return the favor.

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
Will do. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my sexy new pant:

http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/Li...vatar-body.png http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/pi...vatar-body.png I saw those pants last night on Pinata and I was like What the hell???? lol For some reason when I look at the friend avatars, it doesn't show anyone playing the game but as soon I fire it uo, I get the pop up showing friends playing the game. I hope to get some in tonight! |
Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
They just haven't flipped the switch to show the game's cover art yet. AC:B had that problem for a while too.

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
Damn you all! You're pressuring me to buy this game I had no interest in. My family is out of town this weekend, affording me nearly unlimited gaming time. I might just have to pick this stupid game up now. :mad:

Seriously though...it's ridiculously worth the $30 price tag if you at all like trivia games and smartass comments. |
Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
If there's one thing I know about Decker, it's he likes smartass comments.

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
I'm glad the game turned out to be great. My copy from Amazon just showed up today (a day ahead of schedule). I'd love to jump in and play tonight, but Thursdays belong to the NBC comedies and I don't have a DVR anymore. I'll play with a fury this weekend.

Glad these avatar awards seem pretty easy to unlock. |
Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
:drool: I want that dummy.

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
I will have that dummy by Monday, mark my words.

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
Even if they don't do well in sales, i don't think it cost that much to make a jack game. If enough of the old fans buy the game hopefully we get a few sequels and themed games.

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
If they could build some kind of shell (ala Burnout Paradise) and then just release big packs of DLC, this thing could last a very long time.

Re: You Don't Know Jack YDKJ to Return?
They need to have a mode where it gets rid of the "wrong question of the game" and then randomizes 10 questions. In it's current state, this game is only a 10 hour game with 0 replay. If it mixed all the questions up, there would be less of a chance of memorizing everything and being able to replay the game even after finishing every episode.

I'm sure they could do that with many of the questions, but no matter what you'll still memorize them anyway. They need a way to mute people in-game. |

Isn't it about 15 minutes per episode? Wouldn't going through all 73 episodes straight still be over 18 hours of gameplay? |
