waiting for eets and playing the pinball demo, it seems decent so far (got change the default camera tho)

perfect for this monring just zone out and play :D

Damn it reached the highest score in the trial, caved & bought it )
 
Isn't the whole point of Microsoft's strict certification is that stuff like this never happens? I wonder what Major Nelson is gonna say about this? I'm guessin someone from the cert. team explaining what went wrong on his blogcast?

My guess is that this error isn`t related to the game, but to the infrastructure of Marketplace, hence not covered by certification.

yes in multiplayer it support vsion chat , waitin in lobby :(

I hope you don`t have your slong out!

I was just flicking round my friends leaderboards and saw that monster of a score :(

It just...kept...going.

It was my last ball and I nailed like the Sniper mission, kept launching the plane and I think a copter and I found a bunch of artifacts, et al. Ranked 18 on the leaderboards, but by tomorrow I'm sure I'll be knocked down into the thousands.

I have to fiddle around with the camera, but right now I'd say Xtreme is the weakest table because half of it is hidden underneath the raised section. Not as fun. Camera might change that though.

I would've joined your game, but it's too early/late for Voice Chat here at Chateau Double B, and I didn't want to be rude.

:)

I did play a Ranked game (because who gives a shit about being rude there, amirite?) and Multiplayer is actually really nicely put together. For those on the fence, basically you all play at the same time and you see different colored arrows on your board, it's a race to a certain score decided by the host. Cool stuff, but probably needs a camera adjustment as the HUD stuff gets in the way.

Take your time fixing Eets, MS. This'll tide me over just fine. (Although all signs point to Eets being like effing amazing and I can't wait to play it.)

Does Eets: Chowdown work yet? I feel like playing it right now, but I don't want to lose MS Points because of that error.

/wishes Pinball FX was broken instead
 
ok played & bumped up my score to a bit more respectable levels, ideal game for just hanging in private chat too :)

Still No Eeks tho boo! but gota go now anyway, hopefully tonight the MS uploader guys will have the right version on :D
 
No Eets yet but I'm loving Pinball. It's pretty much what I've desired in a pinball game on my 360.

Pity I totally suck.
 
ARGGH come on MS get EETS working, or wake up Major Nelson because he owes me an apology.
 
Here in The Netherlands, Eets is there, but full version d/l only, no trial - looks like something's really up... very strange...

Gonna play the Pinball demo now though...
 
A Brazilian user on a U.S. account here. Both games are showing in the new releases from Games->Arcade Games, but Eek is broken. At the least the demo do not start. Have anyone bought the full version? Does it work?
 
Eets Chowdown Problem - Read This If You've Downloaded It/Plan to Download It
I've just been speaking to the Marketplace team and it has come to our attention that there's an issue with Eets Chowdown, one of today's new Xbox Live Arcade game. We're investigating the problem now and it should be fixed soon, but in the meantime the team is going to pull both the trial game and the full download from Marketplace.


* If you were planning to download Eets Chowdown: Please wait until it goes back up on Marketplace. When it does, it will be fixed.
* If you have already downloaded Eets Chowdown: Once the game goes back up you will be able to re-download the fixed version without paying again. I'll let you know when you can do this.

Should be able to update you on this soon. Sorry for the hassle and thanks for your patience!

Damn Eets was the one I planned on buying this week, gonna give Pinball FX a shot and see if it's passable...

It's way more than passable.

My score on Agents? Not so much.

:)

I ended up trying it out and maxing out the trail score, then I bought it and hit 44,398,614 on Agents my first game and haven't come close since :S

It's a hell of a lot better then I thought it was gonna be, but damn the achievements are tough...

Gonna give the Eets demo a trial now...

Eets is pretty cool (and working fine for me), but I'm not nearly smart enough for it. I couldn't get past level 4. :(

With 120 levels, sounds like I'll be playing it for a LONG time.

Then again, I just made it to level 17 of the Worms challenges; some of them are much harder than the PSP challenges.
 
Oh my... I think Marsho Madness may be better than Eets itself. It's soooo addictive.

Finally got the 200.6% achievement for Castlevania tonight too... no idea how to beat the game as Richter. Do you level up at all? Is there some trick to it because it seems like I'm gonna get owned really quickly.

The life maxes make you a tiny bit more durable, but there is no trick. It's supposed to be tough. Best suggestion: Get holy water and liberally use Hydro Storm. You can wipe screens clear and kill any boss with one or two casts of that.
 
Eeks did the tutorial & bought it, not had much sleep n got upto some complicated bits and had to switch to pinball which I am loving and didn't think I'd buy it after the whole unimpresesed previewing of GAF but its great and all about the Friends leaderboard :)
 
I got Eeeks. Really cool game , with lot of levels. Also , there're several ways to finish the levels.

Also i have a problem with SOTN, the game doesn't starts and my 360 freezes when i try to play it. Is there a way to solve this? I tried deleting the game and downloading it again but the problem is still there. It used to work fine :-(
 
BenjaminBirdie said:
How does Marsho Madness work exactly? I won't be work-free for a while yet...

Basically waves of enemies come in from the edges of the screen. You control a central turret of sorts. To kill the enemies you hit the button combos over their heads (like X, B or whatever) and hit the trigger. When you kill an enemy the shot will bounce to any other enemies near that one allowing some comboing. The longer you last the more enemies come and bigger enemies come with more complex button combos.

And Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix ^

Thank you

Everyone should take note: It is Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix

Not SPF or Puzzle Fighter or "That XBLA Puzzle game" or anything else. Capcom has gone to the trouble of giving it a super ridiculous name and we have to abide by that.

Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix... I laugh every time I see it.
 
Huh, from that screenshot on the Wiki page, it looks like the "HD Remix" is colorblind friendly. Maybe I'll finally be able to play this game :\

Color me (ha) cautiously optimistic.

It's not like Puzzle Fighter even needs to be made for "HD". Oh wow, the backgrounds and crystals look hi-res...next gen am here! Oh well. Everyone will just refer to it as Puzzle Fighter anyhow.

Well it was always Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo...it was named that way to poke fun at their own naming conventions. And I guess it's also a remix, because now it's in HD? So it's an HD Remix! So the joke lives on. Your laughter is correct.

Your scores kept me going this morning. I could not allow you to have any of the top spots on my friends leaderboard.
