Yes, it automatically uses up whichever credit has the closer expiration date.

On FH4, what's the difference in the rewards between the super wheelspin and the regular wheelspins? I know super gives you 3 spins at once, but is the loot different? I'm looking at the Forzathon shop and it costs 40pts for one wheelspin and 150pts for a super wheelspin. If I buy 3 regular wheelspins, that's only a cost of 120pts, which is cheaper than the super. So wouldn't it make more sense to buy the regular wheelspins if the rewards are the same?
Thanks.

For the wheelspins, Icouldnt say for sure, but I have the impression I've gotten better stuff from the super wheelspin.

What are these "___ days left" games under the spoiler tab?

 
Leveling up Danger Signs, or getting lucky with a Forzathon live event that uses that Danger Sign. Though some of them can apparently be gotten without the ramp, like the one on the church. There are YouTube videos for that. Wouldn't surprise me if people figured out how to get others as well.
the one I know of on the church has a ramp... in the back

 
Sometimes you should not poke the nostalgia bear. Started MW Remastered tonight and I am not liking it one bit. Endless respawning waves chucking grenade after grenade. Plus the enemy spawn is jacked up at times. I loved this game 11 years ago but now I may not even try to finish the game.

 
I want toe jam and earl, and altered beast but plan to get the sega collection and both I believe are in there. So I should probably pass. Unless I’m missing something?
 
Yeah not seeing the discount either. I think I bought it from the old sales app so hopefully the discount still applies.

I don't know what happened to the 360 Mark of the Ninja I had on X1 for the past couple of years. I wanted to see if it would finally boot up.

Both are on there. There is an issue I have never heard anyone mention. If you are using the hori 6 button controller, the sega genesis collection does not allow you to modify the controller buttons. Huge disappointment. The xbox live arcade versions though do allow you to modify your controller.
 
PSA: Patch 1.05 for Shadow of the Tomb Raider is up on consoles and fixes the "Completionst" and "Dr. Croft" achievements. Sure enough, I booted the game and got both in matter of seconds. With both achievements in the bag, I'm now 960/1000.
 
Nice to see Virtual-On OT on sale.  I remember playing with the twin sticks on the Dreamcast.  Anyone know if the other games that were released on the 360 are still available?  Can't seem to find them online anywhere.  Were they delisted?

 
Well some good news in the madness that is the Points Crusader quest, I'm on to the Bad Lands quest for my alt account. My main is a day behind so I should be starting the last punch on that one soon.

I apprceiate the reply. I guess this doesn’t affect me so I’ll wait on a sale for the collection. Glad I can rely on this site when in a crunch..
 
Not sure if this has been mentioned but I was able to buy 1 month of GamePass at $5.00 a few days ago. The deal was still on my dashboard but when I went to buy it was $9.99 since I was still subscribed. I went into my subscription and turned off auto renew and the $5.00 was available again.  I have no idea how many times it will allow me to do this but $5 a month is a pretty decent price.

of course I mail back my gamefly rental and the patch comes out today

 
1 Month Game Pass Code (This will only work if you have never used the service before)

HJ7PQ-PTTW*-VQ2Y*-RQRFJ-XGDGZ

The sum of the 2 missing numbers is 11. Good luck!!

Are you looking to play on 360 or backwards compatible games on Xbox One?

 
Grabbed Iron Crypticle, Pixel Heroes, and Altered Beast before last week's sale ended. And I have my eye on Rogue Stormers, Virtua Fighter 2, and Virtual-On for this week. I have a physical copy of Rogue Stormers for PS4, but I don't have PS+ so it will be nice to play Rogue Stormers online with someone for once.

A vast majority of the stuff Sega released on the 360 under the "Arcade" program is still on there, although I know 3 pretty heavy hitters are de-listed. After Burner Climax, Outrun Online Arcade and Sega Rally Online Arcade.

edit: after reading again if you're talking about the other 2 Virtual-On games they don't show delisted on True Achievements but they also don't show store links so.....

So Frys has Forza Horizon 4 Ult. Ed. For $55 on sale, most likely an ad error, but then there's this:

https://www.frys.com/product/9703194?nearbyStoreName=false&site=Newemail100918

Hmmm. To PM or not to PM....

If you trade the disc into gamestop for $27, it would be $28 for the addons. Vs $45 for the upgrade on xbl (~$36 if you have 20% off credit). Not bad... although I'm wary of buying DLC for gamepass games in case they go away. I suppose there's less chance of that happening for M$ studio games... hmmm....
 
Did they fix this? I'm seeing regular edition only.

Edit: oh it's in their "print" ad
I still see this... maybe it shows up in mobile only?

Those micro links don't show it off so here:

https://twitter.com/majornelson/status/1049691131942907905

These two games were PS2 system sellers, and of all the PS2 ports on PSN for the PS4, these aren't on there, but are now playable on X1. What a time to be alive.

 
The free table Fish Tales is available via Pinball FX3. Just launch the game and it should be available. You might need to do a game update. It's also free on PS4, Nintendo Switch, Steam, Windows 10, & Mac.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/pinball-fx3/9pckbvf3p67h
Does Pinball FX2 automatically upgrade to Pinball FX3 with all of the purchases carrying over? If it seems like I'm late to the party, it's because I rarely play that game.
 
Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 HD is coming to Xbox One Backward Compatibility today https://t.co/qPMRNs2ZLo https://t.co/lLNW6T2PEO
Finally, this is one of the biggest games still on my list. Maybe the last time I'll ever be able to say "Thanks Konami".

As far as games I own I think I'm down to:

Beautiful Katamari

Binary Domain

Final Fantasy XIII Trilogy (for 2 and Lightning Returns)

Kingdoms of Alumar

Lollipop Chainsaw

Nier

Soul Calibur IV and V

I think it's permanently free or something, there is no option to buy it separately on Switch. Probably trying to get those classic pinball fans to try out the game that haven't before.

 
Had a thought about BC... we all know the BC program is all effectively custom made emulators for each BC title. Some just make the game work in the X1, some going for big visual upgrades of existing assets (FH1, RDR for example). What’s the chance of MS releasing a “generic” emulator that could allow you to play everything, even if there are a few hiccups here and there?
