    Official Skylanders Thread

    If you're using the Trap Team portal with earlier games, you have to take out any traps. My 4yo and I jumped on the Skylander bandwagon late, so we only bought Spyro's Adventure on Sunday. Booted it with the Trap Team portal and got an error saying it didn't recognize the series 1 figure. Took...

    Official Microsoft Points and Xbox Live subscriptions Deal Thread - Read rules in OP!

    I went about a week or so without Gold. I eventually got an offer on the dashboard for $36 for a year (just have to remember to turn off auto-renew). I eventually caved and bought it on Oct. 28th.

    Not in my experience. Some stores might operate that way though.

    Yup, if they start ringing up at $1 off, that means 50% is coming. :bouncy:

    LEGO Deals 3

    I was at my local TRU on Saturday (Westland, MI). It looked they reset & expanded their Lego section. At least 4 TS Western Train Chase (7597) in mint condition showed up on the shelves as a result. I want to say they rang up at $65? A couple TRU exclusive Dino Hunter sets showed up as well...

    Simpsons LEGO!? I'm going to have to join the AFOLs crying over this. The reason I'm upset is that this will lead to my financial ruin. The horror! The horror ...

    Xbox One on the way. DRM removed, more details to come.

    Hopefully it's just the input (mic) channel that won't work on the Xbox One. I love the mic on my x31s and it'd be a shame to give it up but if the Kinect 2's mic work as well as they did in the demo's I've seen and audio still works, it's not that big of a deal. Maybe even better if it only...

    Xbox One on the way. DRM removed, more details to come.

    I'm not really concerned about my connection, I'm concerned about Microsoft's. It's unlikely they're going to be running One servers in 10-15 years. I've never sold a single system, I play everything in my collection from time to time. I'm not interested in a system that will be a brick in 10...

    Xbox One on the way. DRM removed, more details to come.

    I wouldn't necessarily pick Crackdown over the other franchises mentioned but I definitely had a good time with both Crackdown entries. Although Crackdown 2 was essentially a mod or DLC packaged as a full retail release, I still had fun with it.

    Grid 2 Special Edition $189,637.50

    This doesn't belong in the deals section! You can get buy all the individual components for about £22k ($33k) less. Seems a bit high for a custom paint job. If you still think it's a good deal, I'll only charge $15k to crudely spray paint whatever you want on whatever car you want. You don't...

    List of all free Xbox Live Marketplace content

    I'm in Michigan. I'm guessing MS sells ads on a weekly basis and based on demographic info that they can discern and collect from XBL subscribers. The two weeks prior to After Earf's theatrical release will probably be when Columbia spends the biggest share of their ad budget and thus pay MS...

    Xenoblade Chronicles

    Quick note on that, a Wii is probably the easiest way to play GC games in 480p (for games that support it). A quick search shows there's finally 3rd party cables that might let you do 480p with a GC (news to me). Prior to that, the GC component cables were getting incredibly expensive. Plus...

    After Earf showed up for me last night for the first time. Got my avatar spanx but holy hell does that movie look bad.

    Xenoblade Chronicles

    Like me! This game was on the periphery of my radar, so I didn't know it was a Nintendo/GS exclusive. I figured there would be some point it could be had for $15 or less which is my usual game purchase price. I didn't catch wind of its rarity until this thread was in the main deals forum and by...

    Look at that fan! Is the X1 going to be a UAV?

    Xbox One on the way. DRM removed, more details to come.

    I actually just switched back to UVerse. They used to let you use a 360 as a 'satellite' box. I'd love to check it out but support for that is seemingly on hiatus. Regardless, the X1 will still require some other piece of hardware to integrate with a cable feed. Here's where I'm coming from...

    Xbox One on the way. DRM removed, more details to come.

    I'd be happy with the X1 as a media box (if not a game box) IF I could ditch the cable box altogether. Yet they failed to put in cable card support!? So, it's not a replacement for my cable box, it's just another input to it? It's just another link in my cable connection chain that could break...

    Poochie is a Simpsons reference. The video itself is Poochie-esque, I just used the Rodrigue painting to sneak the reference in.

    Pretty accurate in terms of the level of annoyance you'll deal with on XBL. Two notes: the dog painting on the wall is of Poochie and make sure you catch the end where the big reveal is that Dark Master has been
