2 things...

1. You don't have to load many friend's data.
2. You are not connected to live when you launch.

With no data turned on the game launches in ~15 secs tops. Connecting to Live it now takes me upwards of 5-6 minutes.

As stated in the Contract Killer article Tyler linked, the developers are working on a Gun Bros update that will fix some of this stuff. Appreciate everyone's help in listing bugs, etc!

Out of curiosity, does anyone here use the Parcel Tracker app? I've been having issues with it and the developers haven't responded to me, nor can I find any info online so far...I'm just wondering if anyone else is having problems with the Push notifications or if it's just me.

Ah, gotcha. Well that does suck then, at least it's not really a game I see myself playing a lot, it's never good to see anything take that long just to load up.

Contract Killer now available!

^Thanks, was trying to find a link but having no success.

Anyone notice DotW yet?

Also, apparently we're getting another Xbox Live game today as well, Lode Runner Classic. This one kind of came out of left field.

Seems like an ideal game to price at $0.99. Unfortunately, it's not.

It's also apparently somehow 27mb, meaning I have to try and download it on my awful wifi at work.

According to xbox.com, Splinter Cell Conviction is DOTW for $2.99, but it's still priced at $4.99.

Oh cool, good catch. I'd definitely buy that for $3.

Also, for what it's worth, I think you have the coolest avatar on CAG. I have "borrowed" it and used it as my Messenger avatar for quite a while now.

EDIT: Damn, the screen for Lode Runner Classic is TINY, especially on my Arrive!

Anyone else notice Splinter Cell hasn't dropped in price yet? I'd like to buy it for $3. They did raise PvZ back up to full price, maybe they just forgot to discount Splinter Cell?

Yeah, price is still hanging at $4.99. Not sure why. I'll buy as soon as it drops to $3.

Nice. Nearly a year since I made it, and it still makes me giggle when I look at it.

Splinter Cell has finally dropped to $2.99, picked it up this morning.

How are you guys liking Contract Killer? It's soooo much less buggy than Gun Bros. Start-up time is usually much faster, though connecting to the social server mid-game is still fairly slow. I am loving it overall.

Sweet, finally.

Haven't had the chance to download and install it yet. Hopefully tonight I'll have some free time to spend with it and Splinter Cell.

Yeah, I was wondering when I'd see your name pop up on my in-game friends list. Well, even if you don't have time to seriously play it, you should complete the tutorial and view the Friends/Co-op menu ASAP so that you can start receiving the shared rewards from friends completing challenges.

I hope you're joking EastX. It is a steaming pile of shit. I hit the "Friends" button and it hangs for 10-15 minutes before crashing.

Thanks for the tip. I'll make sure to do that tonight.

I played Splinter Cell for like 10 minutes during a break at work. I noticed that it doesn't have an invert Y-axis option, which is kinda lame. I'm also surprised that even for touch-screen games, my brain/fingers are still programmed to inverted controls.

It hasn't crashed once for me. Try restarting your phone and see if that helps. Otherwise you might just have to play it offline, which'd still be decently fun IMO.

Done so many times, no dice. Same continuing issues in regards to their other shoddy ports. Kind of defeats the point of the co-op challenges if I can't play while connected online.

Have you tried reinstalling too? If you haven't played very far, that might be a good thing to try. Otherwise yes, that sucks. :(
