fuck, why did I buy the 3 months gold deal from Amazon? Of course nothing shows up in my email about the promotional code and chatting with their rep, they're trying to tell me it's Microsoft's problem, not theirs, and that I have to contact them.

fuck

Why wouldn't you grab the bundle? MUA2 is not as good as MUA1 but I can tell you it will probably never be $5 by itself if you ever think of getting it, just my 2cents
I know. But I barely have time to play what I have already. Just being realistic with my backlog and $5 is $5. Will use it toward Bloodstained.

But if you love the first, your inner hoarder won't let it go till the second is in your backlog. Plus the 2nd one was better graphically as the first came out on the OG XBox. I liked both, with an edge toward the 1st.

Are you saying the 360 version of MUA 1 was just a port from Xbox?

 
Devolver Digital just tweeted this.

This appears to be a modified version of the seal from Metal Wolf Chaos,

8-Canyon_(Seal).png


Metal Wolf Chaos is an absolutely ridiculous action game by From Software, where you play as the president of the United States piloting a mech. This was somehow a Japanese-only Xbox-exclusive that picked up a cult following helped by the fact that all dialogue is in English. Physically it's well over $100, and was probably the holy grail of potential BC releases. A remaster should be awesome, hopefully it's coming to all platforms and not just PC and PS4. I feel like it needs an Xbox release because of it's roots.
Had it on my hacked Xbox back in the day, absolutely loved it. Would buy day one, no waiting for sales.
 
Are you saying the 360 version of MUA 1 was just a port from Xbox?
No, just that it was released in 2006 for 360 and the OG XBox. This is a 12 year old game that was designed to go on PS2 and OG XBox all along. Obviously if you are making the game playable on PS2 it isn't a graphical powerhouse.

Bloodstained is indeed great, sat it down for a minute until the achievements got added in then did two full playthroughs in a row. Boss rush mode is going to be a mofo, but I'm even more excited now for the "real" game.

 
Anybody else not get the 2000 bonus points for doing the Cuphead "punch card' on msrewards? I jumped right into it, and ordered the game on June 1st. A week later, no points. I contacted support and am waiting for a reply. Just wondering if anybody has received their 2k points yet.

Did you do the Bing quiz and click the link thing to complete all 3 steps?

I did it the night the sales started and my points came almost immediately. I had already done the other two steps in the quest so like the post above said, maybe make sure those are completed.
 
Yup. Did both the quiz and the bing search. Multiple times. All three green circles with white check marks show up. It does seem like in the past the credit shows up pretty quick. But not this time for me. Hopefully they can resolve my request for help there. Thanks for chiming in.

 
Wonder if there’s a mixer streamer with that $5 credit on nba 2k18?

I tried looking. Is there one or is it a sign not to buy the game?
 
Thanks to whoever gave the tip about offline mixer partner links still being active. I was able to go to Xbox mixer page and they were had the $5 offer for the new doctor Dekker FMV game that I really wanted to play. Getting that new game for $5 is a win in my book
 
How long is the 6 month Gamepass card supposed to be on sale? My gamepass runs out tomorrow and I want to see if I can snag another month at $1 first.

Yep. The 360 version looked a lot better than the OG version. The Xbone remaster looks marginally better than the 360 one, but plays smoother.

With the OG XBox hdmi cable from amazon.com or just the original RGB cables, the difference between the 360 and it become slight at best. I own both, and I only notice a difference when a lot of ememies are on the screen attacking at the same time.

Not to throw gasoline on the fire, but I don't think the original Xbox version of MUA upscales to 1080p even with the Pound HDMI cable, so the 360 version is still graphically better than the original Xbox version. Just sayin.
 
Any good Xbox store credit places besides the occasional Rakuten sitewide sales?
Fred Meyer has a coupon for 20% off this weekend, but that's only in the NW. Sometimes Kroger (the parent co) will have the same sales, and I think they can be found in other parts of the country.

I took Monday off work I'm so hyped for E3. Microsofts is the most exciting for me because I really have no idea what they have this year. Sony usually has a good show but a lot of it is usually years and years out, but still fun to watch. I wish Nintendo wasn't on Tuesday once I'm back at work. EA I'm excited to see if they say anything about Star Wars projects. Ubisoft, I want to see more on Skull and Bones, Black Flag ship combat was so fun.
 
The Definitive Edition of Killer Instinct is looking pretty good at $10. I have whatever seasons they've given us through GWG but can anyone give me a reason why I shouldn't pick this up if I've enjoyed what I've played of it so far? Even if they end up giving us season 3 this still seems to have a lot of content.
 
Man, I bought Forza 2 standard for $5 last night, and today the deluxe is $10. Was it always $10 during this sale and I missed it or is it a new price change? Seems the standard just got delisted too. Just want to know if there’s a ridiculous amount of maps in the deluxe/the way better deal is with deluxe and I bought a half a game in comparison, if so I’ll pursue the refund.

Nah, you're missing VIP membership but not any maps. VIP just helps you earn points faster plus a few cars.

Eh. Unless one is coming out now and the other is coming out at the end of the year, 2 Fallout games in one year is too much.
I could see a remaster being a tacked on surprise and one be a fall release and the other in the spring. I know it wouldn't happen, but having the remaster be a preorder bonus would be a nice incentive, especially if 76 isn't a traditional fallout game.
 
Is there anyway for 2 different profiles to be signed into a Xbox one at the same time? I'm trying to play a local coop game. One controller is my profile, and the other is my profile #2.

It's not delisted - you're looking at the hub page. Scroll down a bit and you'll see the standard 10th anniversary edition for purchase.

I paid $20 for my copy last January and don't regret the purchase (although out of all the characters, I only play as Jago... the rest are a little too unorthodox). $10 is definitely worth it to have it for keeps.
