Looking to crack out the 8 associated Hitman Absolution achievements that are related to the servers going down in the next ten days. Easy to do with 2 users as some are friend/co-op related. If you're interested pm me.
 
With the Fandango app and renting a movie, I think it can link to other apps like VUDU, Movies Anywhere etc. Are rentals able to viewed on other apps or just purchases as I can't get the fandango app on my Android TV box.

On another note the Guardian Trials Add On for Super Lucky's tale, I know it is already at a low price but shouldn't it get a discount for Super Lucky's Tale in Gamepass, or does it have to be in there a certain amount of time. I thought the time only was to get 20% off on games in gamepass.
I noticed the same thing myself and bought it anyway (discount would only be 50 cents) but the other dlc they have DOES have the discount applied so all I can assume is that it hasn’t been out long enough for the 30 days or whatever they require before the Game Pass discount applies.
 
4 more games just announced to be removed from Game Pass at the end of the month: Mad Max (X1), Lego Batman 1 (360), and the two Sam and Max games (360).  Get your game time in now while you can.  From experience, Lego games are usually easy (although slightly grindy) completions.

 
With the $50 off, do you think now would be a good time to buy an X1S ? Or should I wait for E3?

My budget is $200 ish and I’m not really interested in the X1X, I mainly play on PS4 but I want to play some Xbox exclusives with game pass.

Thanks!
 
Just added Vanquish to my queue.

Is anyone else having trouble accessing their x360 download queue through xbox.com?

General rule of thumb is to never buy near E3 (24 days to go) unless It's a insanely good deal. You never know what's going to be announced. However, outside of a white XBox One X/special editions I don't see much coming out this year. PS5 is either 2019 or 2020 so I'd imagine MS is keen to working on the successor to the X in terms of power.

If you can wait till November even better. Last year the 1S was $180 so I'd imagine they might hit around $150 this year for the S.

Bought the Bleed Complete Pack this morning and played the first game before I left for work. My only complaint is that they put the jump button on the right trigger. Otherwise, fun.
 
Thanks for the heads up. I was able to place an order for one, and almost clear out my gem stockpile.
Thanks for the tip. I had 1887 gems laying around, so I spent some.

Every time I have ever gone to redeem something there, the stuff had always been 'Sold Out'; the Vault has basically been useless to me. So this was a nice change of pace. :)

 
Down to four gems left.

Question, I’ve had 15000 rewards points pending since 5/4 for deposit, did I miss the early month deposit and have to wait till the end of the month? Never cashed any of these out before.

Wait. Definitely wait.

There seems to be a lot broken on the XBox 360 of late. I noticed the download queue was gone last week. It redirects me to my Xbox collection. I have also noticed game pictures for Arcade games do not show up on any of my XBox 360s (I have 3). I was playing around with Pinball Arcade on my 360 last week and noticed all of this. I had to scroll through my download history on the 360 to redownload my season passes for Pinball arcade. What a pain that was. It would have been much easier to search my download history on my PC.

I’d wait. I’m in a similar situation only I’m looking to pick up a PS4 Pro. I’m hoping Sony announces a $50 price drop or so at E3.

Even more disturbing, I noticed my 360 purchase history tab I had saved has been redirected to the "My Games" category tied to my Xbox One account. How are we supposed to download delisted games now?

 
Play that Kragon ftp game. 1000/1000 in less than 2 hours for $0.
You mean Korgan? I played that one already but that's the type of game I am looking for, something that doesn't take long and has 100 G achievements.

I know someone mentioned Minit but I don't want to buy that.

Lol, that's how memorable it was, I couldn't even think of the name. It was an interesting concept w the switching, but I have Diablo 3 so...
 
That's why I was asking what are some games to score some easy achievements on? I need 14 gems and don't know any other way to earn them without spending money.
Pneuma & The turning test where both gwg and can 100% pretty quickly, but may need to use a guide if you just want some quick gs.

Xbox Rewards MyVIP vault is now stocked with prepaid Visa Cards.
Thanks!

I have 13000+ rewards that should have been automatically deposited on the 15th. How long dos the transfer usually take? The request a deposit button is also not showing up for me either.

If that new webpage weren't such a steaming pile of dumplings, it would be alright.

 
Thanks to whoever posted that the $10 Visa cards were back in stock. I somehow had enough gems again for another redemption. It arrived immediately, I added it to Amazon, and had $10 XBL money almost immediately.

 
Is the visa card just the code or a physical card? Have enough gems for one and trying to decide weather to get it out wait to see if the points come back in stock.

Yes, that is a problem. I had to login to my xbox 360 and go through my download history on there to download the season pass for the Pinball Arcade since that game has been delisted for a while. If you own a lot of 360 games it is cumbersome to use the download history on the 360. It is much easier to search on the web based download history.

It gives you a choice between them. If you take a digital card, you fill out a name and address, and then it issues the card # to you. It was really quick and simple.

 
So I think I'm a day late BUT Robinson Cano got suspended for 80 for violating the MLB drug policy. Any thoughts on this? Do you think the punishment should be more severe or not?

I mean I think a pitcher got legit murdered by 120mph baseball to the skull in Mega Baseball 2, but nobody even stopped the game...
 
The quest is live. You need to retweet 1 Tweet. You don't actually need to retweet, just click the retweet button, let the new window / tab open and it will count.
I just had to claim it, there was no option to tweet anything. There is another quest that does need 1 retweet, but that is for a chance to win 1 out of 3 Gears Esports Supporter 9 Packs.

 
Is there a way to deposit pending points from xbl rewards? I have 15,000 points pending but they weren’t deposited on the 15th. I didn’t see the option for the fast deposit button on the website. I’m hoping to get shadow of war before the sale is over.

I don't think MLB can suspend over just a masking agent, they also need some kind of evidence it was actually used to cover up PED use. He accepted the suspension without getting the player's union to appeal. His HOF chances are pretty much shot, at least with the way the electorate currently views PED use.

As a Phillies phan, I always preferred Chase Utley anyway.

When it first went up, it was a retweet. I saw one of the mods say in the chat it was switched to a simple submit.

 
I'm not that into Fortnite. I'm not sure if it's because I don't play it with friends like i did with PUBG or that it's huge with young kids, but it was pretty satisfying killing thanos while in the top 7 and taking the gauntlet and getting my first win the other day.

Which reminds me (kind of avengers spoiler?)
that the same day while on my Instagram discover feed I got spoiled about a specific actor on the set of the next avengers movie. I had something in infinity war spoiled the same way. Kinda stinks.
