i heard there were some terms and conditions about how long you have had your live account but i don't know what they are

[DavidHolliss]

Think you have to have been using the same Live account you created within the first 12 months of Live starting - read that somewhere else.

So that rules me out - in theory.

[John Parry]

I can't see anything about terms on the application, I did it and they said I'd get the points emailed to me by 21st December!:)

I'm not convinced though as I've not had those two free games there were offering a couple of months back yet even though I have a receipt to say that I'm getting them!:(

You tried todays two new games yet Paulos G ?

[Paulos G]

Yeah. Discs of Tron is one of those games that might have nostalgic appeal for some. Commanders struck me as a bit Advance Wars lite. Didn't grab me enough to splash out for some points. The full game does have a four player multiplayer mode over Live which might sparkle things up a bit though.

[DavidHolliss]

heh I thought that was this Wednesdays XBLA game - it's a Mass Effect
add-on :(

Wondered why I'd never heard of it ... and it sounded really good.

[chopemon]

Lol, now I realise that I didn't copy the entire post and missed off the name of the game.

Oh ctrl C + ctrl V, why must you mock me?

[Red Hogg]

When is the next dashboard update?

[peeveen]

I don't think anything has been announced, but so far they've been every "Spring" and "Fall".

[Paulos G]

Bliss Island. 800 points. 47 MB.
Brain Challenge. 800 points. 109 MB.

[DavidHolliss]

So Bliss Island is 800pts ? not the 400 it says on the xbox.com page.

[Paulos G]

Don't know if it's a mistake or not but it's definitely showing 800 points on the marketplace at the moment.

[peeveen]

Sounds like a mistake on the blurb ... the 400pt price-tag is the reserve of the creaky retro stuff, innit?

[DavidHolliss]

Normally yes.

[Paulos G]

And now Bliss Island is showing as 400 points!

[DavidHolliss]

It was 400pts at 6pm last night when I downloaded the trial. Not tried it yet mind.

Brain Training game seemed OK though.

[Fastware]

Raiden Fighter Aces Jpn Marketplace 191 Meg.

[chopemon]

What is it? A video?

[DavidHolliss]

A Demo :)

[chopemon]

:w00t: Holy crap!!

Awesome news.

[DavidHolliss]

Just thought, will a Gold Live membership be needed to grab this tonight ? Thanks.

[chopemon]

Just thought, will a Gold Live membership be needed to grab this tonight ? Thanks.

Yep.

I'll be waiting a week, can't be bothered to set up another account.

[Paulos G]

Assault Heroes and Doom now available for 400 points. There's also a trailer up for Assault Heroes 2.

[Paulos G]

Mr Driller available for 800 points. About 50 mb.

Before anyone asks, it's Mr Driller!

[tom-nook]

Yeah it is :)

Was kind of hoping that graphically it'd be a wee bit nicer though with some of the funky tunes from Drill Land included.

I'm not really digging the low-def PS1-esque graphics. The other screens and the frame round the playing area are all pin-sharp so why not the game 'area' itself????

[Paulos G]

I was a bit disappointed by that too. Was expecting it to look much crisper. Didn't check the options to see if there were any tweaks to be made though.

[Paulos G]

There's a Rocky and Bullwinkle table available for Pinball FX for 200 points.

W00T!

[jim g]

OK the big one, Ikaruga is out in the UK !, 800 points, downloadiig now!

[bignige]

Free Rockband track up on US market place. UK downloaded. Will have to wait until May 23rd to see if it works!!! Apparently it's the song from the closing credits of Portal, Orange Box.

[Paulos G]

Rocky and Bullwinkle. 800 points. Collection of mini games, some of which use the camera. Didn't do it for me.

Battlezone. 400 points. It's oh so basic and yet oh so great. I don't know why. The trial times out very quickly though.

[MattyD]

Battlezone is an ideal arcae game - it's extremely simple, cheap and disposable, but still fun. I don't mind spending 400 points on something like this whereas 800 is a big ask for some of the crap on XBLA. Plus it has camera support, meaning there's finally a more interesting alternative to Uno for camera-based lollins :)

[Mr.Do!]

Yeah, three or four kills and that's it! :thumbd:

[Zero9X]

Is live down? i can't seem to connect to it or the website.

[charlesr]

I can see my friends list online on the website ok.

[Zero9X]

i can't seem to connect to xbox live or the website. i'll give my router a reset. see if that helps.

EDIT: That didn't help. Must be NTL aka "Virgin Media" again.

[Red Hogg]

So has there or has there not been an update within the last few days? I haven't noticed anything but folk are saying that it fulks things up.

Evidently yous lot haven't noticed anything either.

[DavidHolliss]

There was an update end of last week, doesn't appear to do anything visually, guess it's just laying the foundations for the big "Spring" update.

[MJ]

I was wondering about this demo, being as the game is out next Friday, although I'll buy it regardless. I'm sure the Xbox.com page used to mention a demo coming too.

Thats what I thought too, but a friend texted me to say he was playing it and I checked through xbox.com and sure enough he was. I'm hoping it wasn't a fluke as I'm almost finished for the day at work.....

Civilization Revolution:

FREE SINGLE PLAYER MAP PACK: BRAVE NEW WORLDS

The Brave New Worlds single player map pack includes four all-new maps for Civilization Revolution players to conquer. "Mazeworld" is covered by mountains, making your global expansion all the more tricky. "Chokepoint" is aptly named for its unique terrain structure that forces you to fight for the dominant positions on the map. "Donutworld" has a special donut shape to it (hence its name), and "Checkerboard," a map consisting of similarly sized islands peppered throughout the world.

These four new single player maps are completely free for all players.


SCENARIO PACK: THE VICTORY PACK

The Victory Pack includes three new scenarios for gamers to tackle in single player mode. They include "Enlightenment" where players show off their civilization's grandeur as they vie for a cultural victory, "Hyper Drive," a high-speed space race, and "Gold Rush" where amassing money fast will win the game.

The Victory Pack is available on Xbox Live for 100 MS Points, and on the PlayStation Network for $1.25 US, 0,99 EURO, 0,69 POUNDS, or 1,75 AUS $.
