Winners of the NASCAR Daytona 500 contest:

1st - dealzg - Choice of game from the Xbox Marketplace to be gifted

2nd - Antarael Dulacre - Either $5 Xbox Gift card or 1 month Xbox Live

3rd - rwerries - Whichever prize Antarael does not choose.

Pretty fun race...thought it was going to be FlawlessImage , Sielanas or (especially) The Questyen for most of the race! That's the fun of NASCAR. It's hard to predict. A big wreck with 2 laps to go shakes everything up and dealzg's racer took the lead from tribalnoise on the final lap. Can't make this stuff up.

Having them all represent a CAG made it fun too because I kept checking back and forth to see who was in a winning spot. I might have to do that again during NASCAR season since I'm trying to be a better NASCAR fan after falling out the past couple seasons.
Thanks again for the contest! =) Like some others I also actually looked up my driver. Not into NASCAR either, but doing a contest like this was really kinda interesting haha. =)

Thanks for doing the contest (if nothing else it steered the thread back to games for a bit)

 
Got MMLC2 with the help of some remaining credit from some trades. When it came out, people were confused/up in arms that save states were 'removed,' but that's not 100% true. Checkpoints show up mid-level and before every boss, so you can usually keep trying and reloading hard fights if you want/need. Feels like a good balance and reminds me of Rayman Origins/Legends, in the sense you have infinite retries for bosses etc.

Mega Man 9-10 are worth the price of admission alone to liberate them off of XBL, especially since they're complete editions with the character DLC.

Mega Man 8 is a lot better than I remember. Some obnoxious parts, but still fun. It's very odd to see a PSX game loading up on the X1 at first.

Mega Man 7 is... well, they tried. I'm saving it for last.

Although I'm jealous the Switch may be getting both collections in one release if international ratings boards are accurate, I'm pretty happy to have all of these games on a current/modern system with achievements etc.

You know, for all the crap that MM8 gets (some of which even I have given), it is still a pretty fun game. I admit, I never beat it on the PSX, but I did make it to Wily's Castle, and had some fond memories of destroying bosses, especially Clown Man.

 
Is Monster Hunter World worth paying full price for? Me and my gamesharing brother are looking to coop it. Have some credit expiring March 19th
I bought it and have no regrets. Absolutely love the game, but have been a Monster Hunter fan for a long time and was looking forward to the game since it was announced.

Few things I must point out, to be fair:

They really made some poor decisions with Co-op. You cannot play a story mission co-op until you've both seen any cinema scenes associated with that particular story mode quest. So this will be your gameplay loop:

Both of you load the same story mode quest, and play alone for a few minutes until you see all the cutscenes (can't skip em, either). This usually happens with two or three minutes of starting the quest.

Then, you have two choices:

1. One of you quit out of the story quest, and the other send an SOS flare. The person who had quit has to search for the flare on their matchmaking/notice board - they can narrow it down based on monster and quest level, but cannot search for your name specifically, so results can be mixed OR

2. Both of you quit out and restart the mission together, since you've both seen the cinema scenes associated with it, you can now do it co-op. This will mean re-doing a portion of the quest that you just did.

You have to do this for EVERY SINGLE story quest in the game.

You can play "side quests" without this nonsense, but be aware of this:

Each side quest will have an associated Hunter Rank associated with it. I.e. You must be HR 8 or higher to accept this quest.

You increase your HR by playing story mode. So if you play a lot more than your brother, you'll have to wait for him to catch up and reach your HR level in order to play side quests with him.

It is stupid. So stupid. Everyone hates it. So I will not pretend like this game is perfect and recommend it to all.

My two brothers and I all bought it together, but we play more solo than anything due to this garbage.

Having said all that, I must re-iterate that I absolutely love this game, and would buy it again in a heartbeat. But that's because I dont mind that I play mostly single-player.

Thanks. That does sound like a bad design decision. Is there any hope of it being fixed?

En mi lengua nativa, por que? Es bueno que practiques.

Ojalá las ofertas de hoy no estén TAN malas como en las semanas anteriores.

I dont think the devs have acknowledged it as an issue. Maybe one of those "works as intended" design decisions.

No one can say for certain, but I wouldn't hold your breath, honestly.

 
Bloomy, please work your magic and get some Dead By Daylight DLC into tonight's sale.I've been playing that game like crazy for no apparent reason the last two days and that stuff has never been on sale. Now I'm convinced I need it all, even though we're stuck with reboot Freddy.

 
Sorry mrclutch...

It's my birthday, and I predict a mediocre sale! (proven by Bloomy's ninja skills of knowing ahead of time, but whatevs)

Either I'm right and you all will have nothing to be disappointed over and you'll save your money, or I'll be wrong and you'll have an awesome sale. Win-win-win!  :D/

I'm surprised you've been able to play lately, the new patch is so bad and causes so many problems/crashes ;( I've been trying to play and the games just like nah

 
Is it possible to buy a physical game, install it, then buy the digital copy and not have to download the whole game? I'm interested in doing this with NBA Live 18.

 
For those of you that don’t Hanks español, El Niño is Spanish for.... The Niño!

Why bother? You only just need to remember three words.

Forgot to mention that you need to disconnect from the internet in order to install from disc, otherwise you still download the game.
If the game is already installed there wouldn't be a need to re-download the game. The content is the same for either license type, digital or disc.

 
4 years of French too...a northern school thing maybe? Never used a word of it. I think it did help in learning (well enough to get by) other languages. I spent about 3 months in Vladivostok and had no problems, with a little google translate help.

It would be cool to see a big surprise Presidents Day sale tonight.
