MM9 is in the second Legacy collection right?

Not sweating the others. When do they normally announce what is going in to Gamepass?
MM9 is in the 2nd legacy collection. I thought they normally announce adds the last week of the month, similar to the next months' GWG.
 
New BC:

I wish they were X enhanced so the “Can it run Crysis?” meme would live.

EDIT: Spelling

Going to bite the bullet and grab NBA 2K Playgrounds 2. Haven't heard much about it other than the delay and name change, but my son and I enjoyed playing the first one together.

I remember really enjoying Crysis 2 on PS3 and being pretty amazed at some of the textures and environments. I also remember feeling like it was a tad too long / overstayed its welcome. Glad to see them BC and for them all to become BC at once, though.

 
Got the crysis games on sale and gwg but never played them. It's been a while since a game I own has gone BC. Having 3 in a single day is a real treat.
 
Now we need all three on sale pronto.
"Problem" with them being BC now, is that they'll be $9,99 whenever they go on sale again. According to Storeparse, last time they went on sale was back in March for $5 each.

The servers for the Crysis PS3 games just died on 10/10, so hopefully they will be operable on 360 and Xbox One for a while longer.
 
I think Crytek still owns Crysis, if so these are the only games they had on the 360. They were published by EA, maybe they could show up on EA Access?

 
Well, the servers for Crysis 2 were shut down on the 12th for 360 version....
Yeah found it kind of funny with today's announcement, saw a bunch of achievement peeps trying to get in what they could earlier in the month and of course now they go BC. Anything EA is usually the pits with sever stuff.

 
My Fallout 4 time won't register either. I can't figure out if it's broken, if I'm not eligible because i own the game or if it's because my gamepass expires soon. Not sure what else it could be.
I just checked mine for the first time, and it hasn't registered either. I own the game as well, so hopefully that isn't the problem. I've played at least 48 hours this month. I'm working on getting all the achievements, just got two left!

I don't remember where to get support for Quests, and Bing isn't helping me. Anybody got a link?

 
They seemed pretty disappointed by the MGS 2 & 3 collection, no enhancements. Guess it's been a bit since a game has gotten actual enhancements.... along with more OG Xbox games
To be fair, the X enhanced 360 game announcements have only come in batches. One batch in November of last year, then in February and April of this year. It has been a longer than usual gap, but it seems like those first three were probably all of the stuff they were initially testing out the process on. Also, most of these games were BC before being enhanced later, with Sonic Generations being the only exception coming to mind. I wouldn't rule out any enhancements for sure, but it did sound like it would only work on some games based on how they're designed or something. Regardless, other than the missing mini-games in MGS3, this is still the best way to play the games, though it's only real leg up on playing on 360 was better texture filtering.

Publishers with enhanced 360 games:
Microsoft, Bethesda, EA, Disney, Valve, THQ Nordic, Sega, CD Projekt, Rockstar/2K

There aren't actually that many yet, though all of these except CD Projekt have plenty more games that could be enhanced. Most likely to me based on this list would be; Halo Reach, the other Valve games, and Fallout New Vegas, which all use game engines that are already enhanced. There are some like Force Unleashed II that they shouldn't waste resources on, and several games I'm not sure use the same engine, like Bully or Darksiders II.

Hey can you share the link where you check the gamepass challenges status? I don't see the tracking anywhere...google didn't lead me to it either...

That spending 100k nukacola tickets achievement is a grind and some of those nuka magazines were glitched under buildings which made them a pain to get! Good luck!

EDIT: ah sorry found the link for the quest tracking (dang it didn't track my idle Fallout 4 gameplay either, guess I got to redownload it again...) I don't think owning it should matter... I own all the ones I played for the 30 min challenge...

EDIT 2: I wonder if it doesn't track due to MODs....guess I'll start a new character to try it out...already 100%ed and don't have anything interesting left to do...

For what it's worth I was clicking around on the store on the actual Xbox and Destiny 2 Forsaken expansion by itself is $33.99 now. So $6 discount if you had everything else already. I know some people were talking about it a few pages back.

Luckily I got both of those, and all the other hard ones. 100,000 tickets was definitely a grind. I ended up getting it while I watched one of the 3 hour videos from the Fallout 76 Greenbriar Event. I had the game up on my girlfriend's tv which is a little off to the side of our couch on it's own stand, and just used an explosive weapon on the bandit game. Just had to look down to put a token in, look back up, and pull the trigger once every couple seconds. I only had issues with the kill 40 unique enemies in Nuka World (I didn't start it until after finishing the DLC, and I wasted 3 hours using a mix that didn't work) and I finally got 100% happiness in a settlement around 2am this morning. Just have two main quest achievements left, so as long as the game doesn't glitch I'm golden.

Nice! Nice! You going to play 76? I'll add you, be nice to have another experienced gun! I played about 40 min of the stress test on Saturday...should be a good time!

 
Codes!

Cache of Gems for Dungeon Defenders II: T24H3-9FHVK-R6PD9-GMW62-HX2V?

75 Platinum for Warframe: FQMRH-GDM93-9KX7J-RX2Y4-9CHD?

7-Day XP Boost for Defiance 2050!: J3XFR-P2KRH-FC9Q9-X4CRP-VFV9?

? = Z

 
Just picked up CIB Crysis 2 and Crysis 3 from GameStop for under $8 with elite. Looking forward to finally play these on my X. Thanks for posting

Of course! I played every single minute of the stress test, and my girlfriend joined me about ten minutes in (she lied so much to her boss to leave work as early as she could) and eventually was able to join my server. We had a blast playing together.

 
Just a reminder - Thanksgiving lands on Nov 22 and there is usually an offer for $1 Gold/month so if your gold is expiring and you plan to renew do it within the next week so can take advantage of it. The offer usually lasts until the end of Nov. There usually is an offer during X-mas,too, so if you time it right, you can get two months for $2. I wonder if they will offer the GamePass for the same price.

I have a Dungeon Defenders Gems code and a code for The Division's Survival DLC if anybody wants them. PM me.

If anybody has Warframe codes they don't want, assuming more than 1 can be used on the same account, I'll take them.

Edit: The Division DLC is gone. The Dungeon Defenders code is also gone.

Thanks for the DD Gems code, Frisky.

 
So are all these quests you guys are doing, just for what essentially amounts to a raffle to win something on Live? Seems like a lot of you spend a decent amount of time every month trying to finish them, and I'm just wondering if it's worth the time/effort.

 
I just checked my Microsoft rewards and the one time Hot Deal  of$5 for 2500 points finally showed up for me. Seems like it's still rolling out so if you haven't gotten 1 yet, check again.

 
Crysis 3 was GWG in 2015, depending on how long you've been subscribing, you may already have it.
Yeah, after posting that I realized I actually have all three! The second one on disc and then found out that the first was only available through digital so knew I had to own it. And, of course, the third through GwG.
 
Can someone throw up a quick list of 360 games that are on sale this week that are BC? I’m at work and don’t have the time


Edit : it’s for the giveaway, whomever puts it up will get 2 chances
