Not judging you here, but I just don't get this, lol. Or achievement hunting in general. Oh well, to each their own!
Back on the 360 there would be this one British lady with short red hair and do videos and I believe she said it best regarding gamerscore when she said "my gamerscore penis is bigger than your gamerscore penis". So I'm trying to get my gamerscore up for That sole reason.
 
Glad that they finally announced the new Game Pass games so everyone whining about how they were skipping this month and not adding anything new to the service can now whine about how much the new games suck. 

 
Yeah the other game was Ben 10 a crappy XBLA game that they accidentally gave for free. Thanks for the replies guys! Ben 10 is still downloadable for me. I was also able to grab Shadowrun when it was free... so I guess MS doesn't really go back to revoke 360 licenses.

As for gamepass? Just Ruiner and Dandara for me. Ruiner is not available to download yet either.

Own Ryse since it was GWG. Bought Dead Rising 2 already. The Escapists was kinda meh when I played it was GWG so wouldn't do that version. Rush looks like a kids game... but that's good! I like how gamepass has variety between indie, kids games etc.

I've said it before, but it depends. Some games have really fun achievements and get me to spend longer w/ a game I enjoy than I would if I just put it down when I finished the story. But grindy ones, like the coins in Super Lucky's Tale, can Shaq-Fu right off.

You're right, they don't. I got a refund for Ninja Gaiden Black back in 2012 because the file was corrupt on their end and wouldn't download beyond a certain %. This quickly become a known issue because the game was on sale for $9.99 for the first time. I was able to download it a few days later without having to repurchase.

To this day, the game can still be downloaded using my account, which I was ecstatic about when it was announced for BC on xbox one

I'd rather complain about owning 2.75 of them already. (.75 being Hitman Episodes 1-3)

I think it's a core issue w/ their licensing on the 360, and probably why they typically have a no refund policy - because the original system doesn't do them very well. Otherwise 360 GWG wouldn't be permanent keepers, you know they'd like to tie them to the Gold sub if they could.

Which is also why the Xbox Store and 360 Marketplace haven't been fully merged and we can't use credit to buy 360 content on :xb1: and xbox.com

As a non-GP subscriber, can I complain about Hitman hitting GP? It lowers the chances of them making the later episodes free to play, like they did with the earlier episodes (the most recent free to play was episode 3 Marrakesh a few weeks ago). I was really hoping to play through all the episodes for free. Guess I can delete it off my hard drive now.

 
Blacklist finished downloading to my 360 without issues, now to check and see if it will start up. Thanks again to Kotor15 for the heads up while it was still listed.

 
eSports streams today for Forza at 3pm and 9pm Eastern and Gears at 6pm Eastern.
Forza Quests are up. The first poll is ready and completes Quest 3 for the Midnight Driver Suit. There's a watch 10 and 30 mins, retweet, and now share on Facebook.

For the Facebook, just click the link and it completes the quest.

Once you meet the time thresholds for the goodies in the Forza stream, do you have to do anything to claim them? If today will be anything like the last few times I've done it, I will open a new tab and forget about it for a week.

Yes, there's a claim button that becomes active that you have to click.

 
Yup. Im big into the gym. I guess gamescores and achievements are like chasing a new squat or deadlifts PR.

Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
You get a mobile like for the gym reference. Funny enough today is leg day and I'll be deadlifting and squatting after work. My goal is to lift as hard as I can and still make it into work tomorrow morning.

Regarding gamer scores, I really can't be bothered to keep up for epeen status. My gaming is spread across Xbox, PS4, PC, Switch, Oculus Rift, and other random consoles or handhelds. Out of all of this I only lead in Forza score because I own and play everything Turn 10 puts out.
 
It does seem like relisting it was the plan all along. I do wonder for the stuff that's delisted if it's just sitting there hidden in the marketplace and one eff up would get me the chance at buying Cyberball 2072 some day....
The more mind boggling ones to me are the ones they make BC but then remove available for purchase digitally. It's a nice gesture of MS to make games BC... but don't you want my money? I'd like Silent Hill Downpour and Deadly Premonition digitally.

 
Anyone having issues with their Xbox One X? My dash is running incredibly slow on start up and then the Xbox will shut down. I can then restart and it runs fine for a while. Hoping it’s a preview program update and not my X taking a dump.

Just a question, have you messed with the "groups" feature at all? I went crazy with it and made a bunch of groups and things really seemed to slow down and some tiles would be missing. Deleted them all and back to normal.

I have noticed that the store and other things where they changed the tile formatting that it is much slower to load.
May look a little nicer but if it slows things down, change it back!

Yes! Same thing here for the past several days.

Downpour used to be available until Konami delisted it in January 2015. I still have the disc but I'd rather own it digitally.

I am. Two days in a row now, after turning my X on from Instant On, it's locked up loading a game and hard reset itself. I'm in the Alpha preview ring.

 
1) Pay for 360 game
2) Say you don't like the game
3) Refund it
4) Play it again anyways
5) ???? Profit
The steps you detail would legally constitute fraud, which is against both M$ and CAG's ToS. I know you're unlikely to get "busted" unless you are abusing the system, but it's still not a good idea to encourage breaking ToS.

I was being sarcastic but I deleted my post brannigan.

However if you want to go that route, you sold years of live correct? Are you a authorized third party? Your breaking the TOS to :p

The Syndrome Markza has not been made available yet but a lot of people in the stream have not been able to login to the site. They (the Gears folks) claim it's a problem with MS and they can't do anything. If you're interested in the skin, might want to try logging in to see if you're able or try different browsers. At the very least, you can hope they have a log of everyone in the stream and award the skin later.

Edit: They just said in the chat that if the login problem isn't fixed, they'll have the Markza available again next week.

I tried logging in to the Forza stream earlier and got the same error the gears stream is returning.
