Does any turtle buffs know if the actual turtles from the actual show did the voice clips in this game - from watching the youtube episodes and from personal memory they seem off, same with turtles in time.
 
Why can't I get Heavenly Star? I'll even pay for it. I thought they were going to put it up for a price after the free period was over. What happened?

That's weird. I swore I read somewhere that the Lumines content would be about 300 points each for each DLC after Feb 20th or whatever

Nope. No Cam Clarke. No Rob Paulson. No Townsend Coleman. No Donatello. No Uncle Phil. Amusingly, Cam didn't do video games at the time (not that there was a whole lot of voice work to be done). I don't think Townsend ever did. Rob Paulson keeps busy enough that he rarely pops into games (though he sometimes does). Uncle Phil...well, he's got his hands full with Will.

That is what I was saying: the content in attached to both your console S.N (all users on the original console may use it offline) and to your gamertag (which can use it in any console as long you are logged to Live).

It is NOT attached to your storage device (HDD) in any way.

You cannot play the content in your 2nd 360 (replacement) unless you are logged to Live. Make a test: offline try to play them. They will be reverted to demo.

This is true, and it sucks. I like to bring my 360 with me at times if I visit someone out of town, I can't show or play GeoWars with them if they don't have a wireless network or a router next to a TV.

What really pisses me off is I'm not even allowed to rebuy it so I can play even offline with this 360. I deleted the demo, tried to re-purchase it and............ nope, no go.
 
yeah looking forward to Wednesday like a lot of people but I'm finishing Alien Homnid before I start Castlevania, onto the last stage on Normal & my god, my god!

I doubt its going to go that smooth, since geowars on pc is up but you have to pay for it on pc.

Thanks for the heads up, except when I tried to log in xboxrewards I get:

"Sorry, to be eligible for Xbox Rewards, you must be a legal resident of the 50 United States and District of Columbia."

They did, just because you didn`t read it properly doesn`t mean it didn`t say it.

For physical rewards it does say it's limited to US residents, but there's no such restriction with virtual rewards. If you can find the text saying so, please direct me to it.

And if there was a restriction, why was I able to login back then, join the challenge, and finish it?

Edit: Oh bah

"#
How much does it cost to join the program?

Xbox Rewards is a free program that anyone who is a legal resident of the 50 United States and District of Columbia can join.

I posted this in the thread for this game, but I'll do it here as well.

Anyway the following was posted on the XBOX Forums by Pidgeo (who is part of the team within Microsoft Australia).

http://forums.xbox.com/11056338/ShowPost.aspx
"Ubisoft is working with Microsoft to submit the TMNT game for
certification in Germany, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Australia and it should become available on Xbox LIVE Arcade pending
clearance in those regions. We will share more information with regard
to availability dates as soon as it's available."

Rush'n Attack in April! Damnit I love that game. If I didn't play it about once a month on an emulator I might just pick that up.

Then again I may anyways for the leaderboards. I might actually stand a chance to place in the top 100, which has never happened before.
 
Me neither, but i still miss the Option to but the Back Dash on the R-Trigger.

Like i said, by no means anything Game Breaking, just a little Nuisance.
 
So no announcement on what comes out tomorrow? Lately, we've heard by Monday. Or has Live Arcade blown its load, and now we're in that refractory period where MS is like, "Don't touch me..."

There was a robust thread about JetPac Refuelled somewhere around here. It arrives most likely whenever Maintainence finishes.

It's Jetpac for 400 points :)

Rare gave this game the full treatment so it looks like it will be fun too!
 
Worms patch and content on the horizon.

Worms fans rejoice, for an update to your favorite annelid warfare simulation is on the way. On his personal blog, Team17's Martyn "Spadge" Brown has detailed some of the new things we can expect in the update. The biggest fix should solve the problem of 4-player games crashing. A number of exploits should be fixed as well. Thanks to our friends at XBLArcade, we also know that AI players will now take a maximum of 2 seconds to "think." Blessedly, the AI will no longer perform ridiculously accurate grenade shots either.

In addition to the update, plenty of downloadable content is on the way. The content is set to include a new theme (we think Spadge is referring to a level background, not a dashboard theme), audio that was cut because of the 50MB limit, lots of new voice banks (angry Scots FTW!), and some new themes and gamer pics. A release date has not yet been set for the update or downloadable content, so for now we'll slap the dreaded "coming soon®" sticker on it.

Ebgames has Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged for $19.99. So does Amazon . . . I guess it is a price-drop.

For comparison, that is equal to paying 1600 MS points for:
- Geometry Wars Evolved (normally 400 points)
- Bejeweled 2 Deluxe (normally 800 points)
- Wik: Fable of Souls (normally 800 points)
- Hardwood Backgammon (normally 400 points)
- Outpost Kaloki X (normally 800 points)
- Texas Hold’em (normally 800 points)

(That is according to prices listed on wikipedia, correct me if I/Wiki am wrong.)

Unfortunately for me, I have 1/2 those games already. :-/

I had a question about this. Does this install the games to the HD or would I have to toss the disc in anytime I'd want to play Geometry Wars?

You would have to toss the disc in anytime you want to play it squire, guess they're scared of people just installing and then passing onto a friend.
 
Vision Games?

Umm so yea, I bought a vision camera and showing my balls on UNO has started boring me lately :p So is there any games new games in the pipeline that use gesture control? or shall I just wait to use it to put my face in Halo 3... :(

That would be too awesome.


If there's no game this week, would they be excused considering the games we've gotten in the last month?



And I think this week's game is gonna be Boom Boom Rocket
