Anyone else having a problem with their downloads getting to a certain point,
then starting over at zero? This will be the 3rd time injustice started over for me. I've been downloading this game for 2 days now.
 
WTF!! Blood Dragon and CoJ Gunslinger have been removed from the marketplace??? What's happening in MS now? I already purchased and downloaded Gunslinger but even so...

Great news guys! The XBLA September to Remember continues on September 25th with everyone's most awaited game of 2013, Girl Fight!
It doesn't look too good, but I'm a big fan of fighting games so I will surelly buy it once it goes on sale, in let's say... two months? I don't think it will sell too well, so it will go on sale quickly enough imo.

I think something's wrong with the Marketplace right now. Almost every game I try to access gives me a message stating:

"Sorry, there's a problem with the Xbox service. Try again later. For help with this problem, go to www.xbox.com/errorhelp.

Status code: 8C230002"

Oh wow. Are you saying they disappeared from the console marketplace as well?

I'm sure they'll be back, but I should probably buy Gunslinger as soon as I can. The marketplace has been so wonky, it's dumb to wait to buy if I know I want something.

I didn't check the console marketplace, but AFAIK if they are delisted from the web, the console version would be also having issues. Yes, I know that it's only temporary, but they should be more careful, after all they are this week's Dotw.

 
I apologize if this has already been answered many times in the past few weeks: so I went to go make my first purchase since the points conversion (doing it through the Xbox, not the website). When I go to check out, I see my $2 that was converted in the "Switch payment option" menu, but it is grayed out. Does this mean I am going to have to call and get something straightened out? Or was it grayed out because $2 wasn't enough to complete the purchase? I'm wondering if I have to proceed using one of my cards and then I will be prompted to use my credit..
Yeah, I discovered this last night, too. You need to have enough in your account to cover the full cost to use MS credit - no split payments. You'll either need to redeem a code to increase your balance or use your CC.

What are you talking about? I just paid off FC:BD with $2.50 credit and the remainder on my card 2 two days ago. Just proceed with payment and it will prompt you asking if you want to apply your credit to your purchase.

 
Let me know if it works for you. Can't find the game on their xbox.com site. I have to wait until I get home to try it on the console.
I'm running into that issue where it says Xbox Live is unavailable in the region. I don't remember the workaround for that...

EDIT: n/m, I got it. Found the game via search, it's downloading now.

I won a $2 Code from Harmonix and when I redeemed it I got the following message:

Great news guys! The XBLA September to Remember continues on September 25th with everyone's most awaited game of 2013, Girl Fight!
Girl Fight will finally fill the void of games featuring scantily-clad women beating each other up when it comes to Xbox Live Arcade on September 25.
Joystiq clearly are unaware of Rumble Roses XX, SoulCalibur 4 & 5, Dead or alive, Bayonetta...etc etc etc.

 
Have the mods nuked the 'free content' thread?

Funny offtopic: Microsoft has bought 'xbone.com' XD  Maybe they will embrace the name :p

 
If you didn't get the news MS decided that they don't have to have demos in the future at all...In reverse they will most probably get rid of it and will do something similar like the PS4 with their streaming...they may even use the same company to do that...
That would really suck. Between XBLA, XBLIG, and others, I've played hundreds of demos. This would definitely conflict with my "no demo, no buy" policy, but I'll probably save some money buying less games.


All this talk about demos made me realize I actually spend more time playing demos for potential purchases than the full games I already own.
Seriously, I don't know why I even bother buying any games. I think the prospect of the game is more enticing to me than the game itself...

I won two of them. Did you redeem it at the website or through the console? I'm thinking I should do it through the console. Also, I'm waiting for the current Marketplace problems to pass before I redeem them.

Yes, mods nuked the thread. This is a stolen joke, but apparently it was against the rules to discuss free Xbox Live content in the Free Xbox Live Content thread.

I doubt they'll embrace xbone. Major Nelson said he doesn't like it at all. I figure they just bought the domain so that someone else doesn't make some type of parody site with it.

I also won two. I tried it both ways for the hell of it. It accepted both of them, so you're good to go however way you choose to do it. When doing it from the website, it said to check your console to get your balance.

 
Thanks mirai, got it.

I don't even know why I got this, i hate racing games. :dunce: ..... it was free how could I pass it up. :bouncy:

Just wish I could get in on stuff I actually wanted like Tomb Raider: GoL.

Damn still cant try out Call of Juarez. Has the marketplace ever been down for so long? Hope they are finally fixing the MSpoints screw up.

So is this why I can't see any DLC, arcade games, etc. other than the new releases? Anytime I try to go into say like Forza Horizon to see it's DLC it comes up with some error and won't let me in. Has been doing this all week.

What promotion is this that three different people each won these $2 codes from? It's not mentioned in the previous 100 posts (just the regional pricing talk).

Now there are TWO X-men origins Wolverine game entries in the marketplace? (at full price tough). The marketplace is having a lot of problems lately, luckily CoJ Gunslinger and FC Blood Dragon are live again.

 
I was gonna buy Far Cry:Blood Dragon but I really did not like the art style...like the all the bright futuristic colors. I get that its supposed to be like that its just not for me.

I played the Ducktales demo and enjoyed it a lot but I can wait until it goes on sale.
 
On Behemoth's website, they say that all of their games are half off on XBLA, yet Battleblock Theater is only 33% off.  I guess Behemoth is just mistaken, but I was excited for a minute there :(
