[360] Xbox Live Marketplace/Arcade thread

I liked the bit that I played of Defense Grid: The Awakening on PC. :dunno:

 

[Twigg4075]

Yup, I have zero interest in this game. Hopefully others will.

 

[riley420]

I do believe that the tower defense genre is the worst of the worst.

 

[Twigg4075]

But it's a sweet tower defense games that is only four years old! You know, a game that the "fans demanded".

I was kinda of surprised to see it as part of the sale but Divinity 2: The Dragon kinght Saga is only $5 on the marketplace.

Is that an action RPG?

 

[Buzzman]

Its kind of an action RPG at times if that helps lol It has a ton of old school aspects to it as well.

Ok, so the Xbox Live Ultimate Sale started yesterday and there are daily deals? Shit, what did I miss?

Is it two separate games? I just started the demo and on the main menu I had the option of choosing between Ego Draconis and Flames of Vengeance.

Where's the tweet that says "Oh and M$ threw 6 figures at me to stop shitting on them!"

He'll throw shit their way the next chance he gets. It's just that he can afford to fix the 360 version now that MS isn't charging developers to roll out patches. He sounded pretty contrite last year when he announced that he couldn't fix his game because of MS' policies.

 

[Twigg4075]

Crysis 1 is pretty bad ass but I started on Hard and playing stealthy on that difficulty is no walk in the park.

I think I need ot get some more M$ points so that I can get Divinity 2. I mean, come on. five dollars?!? Even if I only play it for a few hours like I did with Skyrim I'll still basically get my monies worth.

 

[Twigg4075]

Ok, so with this Capcom sale, I see several items for Asaura's Wrath. The game itself is $10. Then you have Episode Part IV? Episode 11.5 and Episode 15.5. Were there that many pieces of DLC? I thought there was just one with the "true ending"?

I also see that Lost Planet 2 is only $5. Now I know this game bombed in reviews but it seemed like it was mostly because you were forced to play co-op and there was really no single player to be found. Would anyone else be interested in playing through it? It;s four player, right? And then I see another $5 item called "Lost Planet Colonies". Wtf is that? The description doesn't tell you shit.

Edit: Looks like I found my answer about Lost Plant Colonies. It's apparently an enhanced edition of the first game.

New Modes for Single Player Campaign - Score Attack, Trial Battle Mode, and Off Limit Mode. New Online Modes - Akrid Hunter, VS Annihilator, CounterGrab, Point Snatcher, Akrid Egg Battle, and Egg Bandit.
Four New Multiplayer Maps - Crossfire City, Area 921, Lost Arena, and Assault Space. New Playable Characters - Two female and two robot characters are added to the roster.
New Weapons (human) - Hand Gun, Revolver, Flame Launcher, and Hand Cannon. New Weapons (VS) - Pile Bunker, VS Rifle, Rocket Pod, and Laser Lance.
New Environments - Snowstorms, arctic winds, towering mountains of ice are all stunningly realized, creating a truly immersive and cinematic event of epic proportions.
New perspectives - Switch to first person view or the over-the-shoulder view from Resident Evil 4 for even more intense action.

I might have to give that game another shot for that price.

I just bought DR2 like, 10 days ago :no: (granted, got it for $5 at a yard sale but still, this shit always happens to me).

I'll definitely get Case Zero.

 

[Buzzman]

Im not one to complaina bout free games, but Crackdown? That game was $3 at gamestop and is 6 years old. Its as if they are picking games they know people already bought.

 

[TheImmortalGoud]

What happened to Halo 3 being free, or was that for a later date?

 

[jms493]

yeah you can pretty much bet the farm that unless you just bought an xbox 360 in the past 2-3 years that all these "FREE" games are games you have played before.

These free games on PSN and XBOX live are great for people who are either noobs or have no money. If I see a game I want to play I will buy it at some point. I am not waiting for it to become "Free".

Although a lot of PSN games turn free pretty quick. Most them are blah though.

 

[jms493]

Give us Halo 4 and Forza 4 M$....stop being so J00ish.
