Final Fantasy 7 remake shows Xbox One on there... and yeah the Forza Horizon 5 title... seems like it could be fake.
I think don't think FFVII has ever been advertised as PS4 exclusive. Unless there is some rights think from the old days I don't see why it would be. Yeah, the recent HD remasters have been exclusive, but since this is a full blown remake it will probably be multiplatform like XV and XIII.

 
Got all but one of the latest Forzathon challenges. Apparently, they will be running the events as normal/intended after this week. They really just gave everybody a shot at a buttload of free stuff.
 
Any advice with this:

Get 3 Stars on the Timber Mill Danger Sign to earn 40,000 CR

 
I didn't know it was in the preview program, just thought it was in beta but xbox messaged me to let me know it's coming out of preview and if I log into Paladins before the end of the month I'll receive 200 gems as a thank you. I've only ever played it for an hour, so don't know how good 200 gems are. Just thought I'd let anyone that does play to keep an eye out.
I got the same message and only played 30 minutes of it then uninstalled.
 
After another hour with support, they say that apparently my account was flagged as a children's account and that's why I couldn't purchase 360/OG games. What's weird is my birthdate was correct in my profile. I changed it and changed it back and they say it'll take 24 hours. Makes zero sense considering I've bought old content before.

Typical MS. Before I had my One X I was slowly purchasing content that was on sale, which required Gold. Since I didn't have Gold (my 360 went offline in 2010) I started using all the 48 hour trials I had collected over the years so I could get the Gold price for each sale. One day I kept getting an error when I tried to redeem a code on the site. I don't recall the error but I knew the code was good. Two hours with support resolved nothing. They even logged into my account and tried to redeem the code but could not. They refused to discount the game on their side for me as well, so I missed out on the sale.

There are a bunch of Youtube videos on it but you have to go between the two trees to get a good run at it. I used the Aerial nomad (the jacked up buggy). Bought a tune for it that gave it like 700 HP or something crazy like that. Didn't take me too long using the rewind option. I did land bad (rolled a few times) but ended up on the wheels and just had 450.x feet. Finished everything last night.

Is there a limit to the number of 48hr trial codes you can redeem?

 
Man those  Gears skins which will be given out in the stream tonight are looking reat...can't stay the night though work in the morning hrm..

LOL. Forza Horizon 5? Either that’s proof that this is a fake, Walmart made a mistake typing in the title or MS forgot that there’s another number after 3.
More proof of fake/mistyping: "Lego DC Villans". Villains is with an "i".

If there is, I hadn't hit it. The next time I saw a sale I was interested in, I was able to use the same code that was giving me problems. I also forgot another thing about the situation, the guy kept telling me you don't get Gold sale prices on a 48 hour code. I told him at least 20 times that I know you do, because I had redeemed multiple 48 hour codes previously and was able to get the Gold sale prices. I was talking to a brick wall, he wouldn't listen to me at all. I haven't spoken to a competent person in MS's support department yet. I'm not holding my breath I ever will.

 
I got the same message and only played 30 minutes of it then uninstalled.
90% of my time is from the last 48 hours. I played a round when it first came out and uninstalled it. Got the twitch loot for it and used some xbox rewards gems on dlc so figured I'd check it out. Logged on and got an achievement for playing the game for over a year. I played two rounds last night and it seems like a player vs AI hero shooter but I didn't really know what I was matchmaking for.
 
You mean the company that released the Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One has trouble counting?
Wait, I clearly remember playing Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2, and Super Mario Bros. 3. Then I skipped a few and jumped to Super Mario 64. Are you saying I should go back and play the other 60?

Weird every interaction I've ever had with them has been above normal great. Then again my issues were rather simple and not as specific as using trial codes to redeem sale prices.

 
I wouldn’t discount the leak just because of incorrect numbers or spelling. I worked for Walmart throughout college. For a company that makes so much of money, they can’t count or spell correctly 99% of the time.
 
I don't know if there is a way to look up old tweets as it seems like their old ones are gone, but I'd guess this is their first one in like 7 or 8 years. Even if RAGE 2 isn't happening, it could just be id Software messing with people to hype up whatever upcoming announcement they have. It seems like it would make a lot more sense for them to keep going with Doom, but maybe they expanded to have a second team to work on this. They did bring in fresh blood to get Doom 2016 in gear, so maybe something similar happened here.

 
If you're in the alpha ring of the preview program they are going to start rolling out the groups feature over the next 48 hours starting with the update at 9 p.m. eastern

 
Those Walking Dead Overkill trailers look pretty great, but then I remember that Dead Island had that amazing trailer also. Not saying Dead Island was all that bad but the pre-rendered trailer to game ratio was way off...

Can confirm. I worked at Walmart for five months and pretty much every week we had a correction price board in the store because the price printed in the flyer was wrong.

I was confused by that at first, too. They have you do a handful of matches against bots to get a feel for the game, different characters, using abilities, etc. After a few matches you start being able to play PVP.

 
What's the Game Pass challenge this month?
Teabag 100 ppl in Halo 5, Create an account with 0 gamerscore and add 500 friends, and message EA on Twitter and ask for Skate 4.

gold: think it's log in 10 different times, play Fortnite 5 diff times for 30 mins and I can't remember the third one.

I don't have game pass so I'm not sure on that one

haven't seen much talk of korgan, which is a free diablo clone, the game is terrible but got the 1k in less than 2 hours so worth it if thats your thing.

 
Decided to see how much the 360 games I own physically would cost to upgrade to digital. Only 3 of the 12 games actually have digital versions which is a bummer. The first two, Brutal legend and brothers in arms, cost as much together as the third, watchmen the end is neigh 1 and 2, which is an xbla game.
