Two free XBLA games for Xbox 360 consoles purchased between 8/8/06 - 09/15/07

[eswat]

Just got my email today. Note that I actually bought/registered my system in May :>

[Rig]

I already had these games from the previous giveaway. Hopefully, I can trade them for something I don't already have.

[louie95340]

Just got the email...free Joust & Robotron.

[sp00ge]

Mine just showed up too

[Jibbajaba]

I just got mine as well. Not the greatest games ever, but I didn't have either one, and they were free so no complaints here. If someone thought that they were going to send you a code for Pac-Man CE or something then you were just setting yourself up for disappointment anyway.

Chris

[CocheseUGA]

No email here yet.

[gamcreator]

Got mine... Joust & Robotron as well! Didn't have either one, so that's good!

[Pancake Rabbit]

Blah. Joust and Robtron.

Might as well have sent out an email that said "be sure to drink your ovaltine."

[ighosty]

got mine, not sure if i should keep them or trade them...

[Justin42]

I got Joust and Robotron too. I am 99% sure I already bought Joust (my 360's been a bit wacky lately so it hasn't had a ton of playtime) but Robotron is a pretty cool addition. Would've been nice if it were 2 new games but oh well, free is free.

[CocheseUGA]

It doesn't look like I'm going to get an email for some reason. I'd love to play Robotron if no one wants it.

[kylerg]

Got Joust and Robotron. Already have Robo though..

[ratzombie]

Got mine... already bought Robotron.

Thank god it only cost me $3.00 to get a Robotron and an Uno code off someone. :lol:

I'll probably give the extra code to a friend. And I don't mind having a free copy of Joust.

[halfbent]

Joust and Robotron here as well. Ah well!

[moojuice]

Just my luck. I redeem the codes, download both, plug my plug-n-play into my console/controler to charge it, hop in the shower, and when I get back, my 360 RRoD :(

[FoxHoundADAM]

Yay I got the codes (Joust and Robotron). I would have never bought these but I'll take them for free.

[magiic]

Joust and Robo here too

[Kevlar281]

Just got my Joust and Robotron codes. I've been wanting to buy these for awhile but I held out because I was hoping to get the codes in a trade. Either way I'm very happy about it. :D

[Logg]

I got them to.

Fuck yea more games I wont play.

[BustaUppa]

I was smart enough to buy Xbox 360 and register!

Yup, Joust and Robotron for me. Already got Joust from a prior trade so it's time to conduct some bidness!

[shrike4242]

Fuck you, M$, for giving out two of the same games previously.

[GLOCKGLOCK]

Joust and Robotron for me too. I think I have both of these somewhere but never redeemed the codes. Maybe I'll just use these two.

At least they are free!

[nuttyturnip]

Well, I've never downloaded Robotron or Joust, so I'm happy to get the codes.

[DiscoDuck8k]

I never had these either, so whatever.. free games ftw.

[FaintDeftone]

I got the codes today too. I don't have Joust, but I have Robotron. If anybody wants the code, PM me. I'll give it to whoever sends me a message first.

EDIT: It's taken, sorry.

[GenDV138]

Also got my codes today, nice surprise to see the e-mail in my inbox. Don't have Joust so I'm happy that I got something new, already have Robotron and I'll probably give it to a friend.

[DiscoDuck8k]

Haha, how crooked is that? Went to redeem Joust and what do I get? "Invalid code."

Double and triple checked it.. nothing. Typical.. gee thanks MS.

[Apossum]

I'm not going to make a huge stink or slam MS for giving us two free games but these games suck. they're just pawning off their two cheapest and lowest selling games.

[thericochet]

I got Joust and Robotron as well this morning.

I have a chip on my shoulder when it comes to Joust since it was such a quarter eater in the arcades.

Robotron, however, is the shit.

[ITDEFX]

FUCK!

I was just thinking about this when I bought Tetris this morning. I was thinking, oh shit just wait for the codes and you can get this for free...then I checked my email... bam, Free Joust and Robotron?!?!!? FUCK.

Come on, just let us pick

hmm

I wonder, since I had to exchange my 360 because it E79/RRoD only 28 days after I bought it when i Registered my 360 to get the codes, can I reg my new exchanged system for another code?

[ruffinra]

I already have robotron so any fellow cag is welcome to pm me for the code, first come first serve of course.

[nonrandomhero]

got them.. would trade both for something better....

[Chuplayer]

My Robotron and Joust codes are also invalid. This is bullshit.

[MasterSprtn117]

They don't work? I just got mine...

[Logg]

Mine work fine.

Joust is the like worst game ever made.

And these are some hard achievements.

[Halo05]

Mine worked. Not my fave games ever. I suppose you get what you pay for.

[Bretters]

My Robotron code doesn't work :(.

[Brenex]

Haha just got mine like what, a year later?

[Zmonkay]

Well, at least I can enjoy Joust, and a buddy of mine can use the Robotron.

[sp00ge]

I love how people are bitching about which games they received. They're FREE people. God, I'd hate to see some of you Christmas morning.

It sucks for those who got invalid codes, though. Both of mine worked fine.

[io]

Mine work fine.

Joust is the like worst game ever made.

And these are some hard achievements.

You mean worst port? 'Cause the game itself is a classic (and I see nothing wrong with the port other than that the 360 controller doesn't seem very well suited for the game). I played that countless hours when it originally came out (in the arcade that is).

The only thing that sucks about these codes is that I already have both :cry:. I was really hoping for at least one of them to be Frogger.

[JJSP]

If anyone happens to have any extra codes, I'll gladly take 'em off your hands for you. : )

[ratzombie]

Yeah, what the hell? I just got done playing Joust for at least 2 hours. Game is fucking great, and my first time playing it.

And yeah, the achievements are pretty tough. I can't get to the 10th wave in either Robotron or Joust. Damnit. :lol:

[myjester2112]

My codes showed up today too, haven't tried to validate them yet. Wish I could trade them haha

[Benisjamin]

My Robotron code doesn't work :(.
Mine doesn't either! Joust did but not Robotron!

[Chuplayer]

And yeah, the achievements are pretty tough. I can't get to the 10th wave in either Robotron or Joust. Damnit. :lol:

Lightweight.

My codes are still invalid. What the hell?

[ratzombie]

Lightweight.

My codes are still invalid. What the hell?

Get back to me when you actually have the achievement for both. ;)

[Jobbercho]

I already have Joust from the last time so the first person to PM me can have the code.

Edit: Taken.

[v1et r1ce]

Got Joust and Robotron as well...anything good about either game?

[Nelo Ice]

too bad nearly everyone has these or else id try trading for uno or contra :lol:

[dorikyasu]

Got my codes today as well.
Not a big fan of either, but it's free...
Thanks OP!

[Benisjamin]

Anyone who doesn't want their Robotron code? Mine says not valid!

[Danil ACE]

My Joust code is invalid :bomb:

[crunchb3rry]

My Robotron code doesn't work :(.

Mine doesn't work either. But I'm going to take a wild guess that Microsoft's reply would be "Tough shit." based on the rest of their Marketplace EULA.

[yummytyson]

got mines today also, these games any good ?

[Malik112099]

just got codes for robotron and joust..bought my xbox 1/1/05

[Charron]

I'm guessing you can't add these via xbox.com, right?

[maccabee72]

Both my codes worked. The games suck, but you can't beat Free! Thanks again OP!

[tcolberg]

My codes worked. The email they sent had a link to customer support, just in case. Isn't that worth a try?

[$hady]

I got my 360 at launch but had my 3rd system sent during these times using my MS warranty. I signed up for shits and giggles and today I received my Joust and Robotron codes. :D

If anyone is needs these codes and has a different game code or any points codes PM me and i'll most likely trade you.

[sendme]

Didn't know that this was old and codes were sent out alread. Tried and now will have to wait and see.

[crunchb3rry]

My codes worked. The email they sent had a link to customer support, just in case. Isn't that worth a try?

OK, I'll give that a shot.

[ighosty]

used mine, probably will never play them

[mguiddy]

I didn't think I signed up for this, since I got the last one where they gave out three games, but I got an email today with a Joust and a Robotron code, so maybe I did sign up.

[ruffinra]

My robotron code has been given out now.

[ITDEFX]

just got codes for robotron and joust..bought my xbox 1/1/05

wow you got yours 10 months before US launch huh?

[RudyPants]

My Robotron code doesn't work either. I sent an e-mail to customer support - I'm sure I'll get no response. Anybody feeling pitty for me can send me a Robotron code since I actually want to play the game.

[sendme]

I ended up geting the codes even though I singed up today well after the were sent out. I already have Robotron so if someone wants to trade for it let me know.

[DiscoDuck8k]

If anyone has a Joust code they don't want and would send it to me, that'd be cool.

You'd think that given so much time, they could of at least got this right. I'm surprised so many people got invalid codes. =/

[danked]

woot .. joust and Robotron... o well

[Friend of Sonic]

Wow that sucks. I already have Robotron, though not Joust. I was kinda hoping they would use some of the games from the joystick. I wouldn't have minded Time Pilot at all.

[Z-Saber]

Probably donate my codes to... the Shipwrecks?

[Strider Turbulence]

uh...I got codes but I've never registered my system.

[AshesofWake]

anybody want to give a loser a free game for no reason >_>

[SynGamer]

anybody want to give a loser a free game for no reason >_>

Which one would you like? I'll PM you the code.

[glockant]

got my codes yesterday! sweetness!

[guyver2077]

just got my codes..

robotron and joust

wish it was frogger instead of robo

[mrchainsaw]

I got my codes. I don't have any nostalgia with these games so I think they suck. I don't even understand what to do in Joust and having already played Geometry Wars, it's hard going back to Robotron.

[Cursor]

Bought my 360 in October of '06. Submitted the offer a couple of months back, and got the codes 2 days ago. Now if my 360 weren't doing rehab in the Texas RRoD facility, I'd be a happy MS customer! :(

[Mrcapcom]

nothin in email =(

[redfusion]

I don't want robotron or joust, so anyone that got invalid codes pm me.
Edit: both are gone.

[Benisjamin]

I don't want robotron or joust, so anyone that got invalid codes pm me.
PM'd for Robotron

[MikeC]

I got my robotron and joust codes yesterday too.

[Chris Dillon]

I would really love a joust code that works. Mine sucks and doesnt work. If anyone sends me one I thank you. I will be out of town til sunday.

[PyroGamer]

If anybody has an extra Joust code I'd take it in exchange for eternal gratitude.

[staindklown]

I already have robotron so if anyone wants the code PM and I'll send it to you.

Edit: Code is gone.

[shieryda]

Who wants Robotron? I've got an extra code.

Edit: code is gone.

[Perfect*Ending]

I didn't get any email.

Hmm... Dammit MS!

[deathweasel]

If anyone wants my Joust code in exchange for feedback, PM me.

edit: gone

[AshesofWake]

Which one would you like? I'll PM you the code.

i would like robotron if possible!

[ratzombie]

Anyone have a spare Joust code? I'd like to hook a friend up.

[ReturnofBoltz]

For some reason I didn't get my codes. So if anyone has extra codes for these games I'd give feedback in exchange for the codes.

[screwkick]

Got my codes. Crappy games though. Oh well, they're free.

[crunchb3rry]

I e-mailed them about the nonworking Robotron code. The dumbass that replied totally didn't even read my complaint. He e-mailed me back about Joust not being able to download even though I specifically said Joust downloaded fine. Then I get the "enable Premium content" crap that Microsoft assumes is the fix for everything. Yeah, if I could download one game, downloading the other wouldn't have shit to do with premium content settings.

[Sofa King Kool]

Got an e-mail with my codes today. Have yet to use them.

[pentapenguin]

Got my codes as well. Love free stuff! :)

[HotShotX]

Got codes for Robotron & Joust (i.e. 400 Gamerpoints). Good stuff, nice to see Microsoft followed through.

~HotShotX

[ITDEFX]

the wiimote condoms and straps from Nintendo is better then this shit.

[MM3_XBOX]

Free stuff is always welcome on my consoles. I wouldn't call Robotron and Joust "shit", but what more could you expect when MS is giving away two free games to EVERYONE who purchased a console (and then signed up on that site..) in the past year?

Maybe when Nintendo gives out free VC games we can determine which of the two offers were "shit" or not, but straps and actual games aren't even comparable.

[bigdsinferno]

Got codes for Robotron & Joust (i.e. 400 Gamerpoints). Good stuff, nice to see Microsoft followed through.

~HotShotX
good luck on the 400 points. robotron achievements are hard as hell!

[sp00ge]

the wiimote condoms and straps from Nintendo is better then this shit.

Well, then next time MS offers shit for free, STFU and don't sign up for it. For christ's sake, you get something for free and you still bitch about it because it's not what you were hoping for. This is the 2nd post you made bitching about it.



Please refer to my previous post in this thread:

God, I'd hate to see some of you Christmas morning.

[_Sin_]

still waiting

[Friend of Sonic]

Yeah, people need to quit complaining. I mean, I already had Robotron, but I didn't have Joust so I'm happy to have gotten that for free. It's not like we all paid money for a mystery box where anything could be in it. We all got free stuff, no matter how shitty it may be.

[ratzombie]

A lot of you have shitty taste in games.

Joust and Robotron are awesome.

[creatia]

I finally received my codes. :applause:

[ninjalunchbox79]

Finally received my codes , even tho i already had robotron!!! Oh well my bro. will make good use of it. Hell yea the robotron acheivements are hard , especially the VS and wave 30 & 100 . . . . yikes!!

[Jibbajaba]

Got my codes. Joust code doesn't work. :( I was on hold with M$ for 15 minutes, after which time they told me I had to e-mail someone about it.

Chris

[crunchb3rry]

Don't bother e-mailing them. The response I got was to call the number. One big circle jerk.

Seems like they shouldn't even bother having a fucking e-mail address on the support page is everybody that responds just tells you to call the pain in the ass phone number. I only ever talk to the same two people that can't speak or hear English for shit.

[crzyboy88]

I'll trade both my Robotron and Joust Codes for Uno and 100 points

[lordwow]

good luck on the 400 points. robotron achievements are hard as hell!

Joust and Robotron are both rated 10/10 on difficulty on Achieve360Points, and for good reason.

[Chris Dillon]

Anybody want to hook me up with joust? Mine doesnt work.

[ighosty]

i would give someone joust but i already redeemed the code. god that game sucks

[dahermitt]

My robotron code doesn't work, anyone got a spare that they don't want?

[Mrcapcom]

i didnt get my codes at all if anyone wants to hook me up thanks :-)

[Staind204]

I didnt get any codes :( If anyone has extras id appreciate it.

[dahermitt]

has anyone found any resolution to codes that don't work?

[MrDemonicAngel]

if your code doesnt work you need to call 800-4-my-xbox
apparently they duplicated the codes....

[jiggaloboy]

Got my codes a couple days ago, thanks again OP!
