I love this game to death but why do I have to sit through the credits at the end every time I beat it?! Seriously it gets annoying after 20 games or so. I also can not get The Mother Lode Achievement for the life of me. I have broken a 16 sized block but can not get a 25. That's the entire board instead of one block. Also can't get The Longest Journey, the one where you have to beat X' on Hard or Expert with Dan. Anyone else have any pointers or want to play a match sometime?
 
you can add me. I never really got to play online when this first came out. I'm suprised this is dead....I also think there's another thread
 
K added, yea searched and there was another thread but it was under PSN. I don't think the old thread came over when they switched servers and such. I have a hard time finding games so it may not be dead but I can't find any. Don't even know if it will work really, never got into a game online.

Was thinking of getting this game, but already nobody plays it?

That's sad... I think the arcade games, no matter how good, have a shelflife on XBLA of one week, two tops. I could never find anyone in Puzzle Quest either.
 
I would be up for some of this. I havent played it since the first 2 weeks it was out. Had alot of fun but i probly got caught up into something else at the time so dropped it.

Would be up for that too. Love my lvl 50 Mage

shit, not even that long on some games. I've still have never been able to really find anyone playing N+ or Poker Smash. During the first week, you could find maybe 3 random games running but the past two weeks, I haven't been able to find anyone on.


You guys can add me if your looking for someone to play Puzzle Fighter with.

It's really aggravating when you're trying to go for MP achievements.

Know how many people were playing Doom when I went online with it?

0.

Paperboy?

0.

I think I tried 3/4 of my arcade games, and found nobody. It's aggravating, they need to just stop making MP achievements for the arcade games... I mean, N+ was the #1 downloaded game the week it came out, so SOMEONE out there is buying the games!! Just odd that the games get "old" so fast.

ouch, especially with those two games. Its not like they are new properties building up a fan base.
 
This game was hopping on multiplayer for a good month or two. It has dropped off since then, but I've been able to find games here and there. I'm up for playing sometime.
 
Well I tried last night with Akilla and I got an error has occurred 5 times trying to join the game. It looks like the net code is not good enough for satellite connections (I can play UNO, Worms and other XBLA titles though).
 
I love this game.

I haven't played this game in weeks (no Internet connection at home) but I rarely had problems getting into matches, even at 3 in the morning. Last time I played, there were over 1,000 entires on the weekly ranking boards, I really hope it hasn't dropped since.

The easiest way to get the Mother Lode achievement is just to play single player (w/ 3 or 5 rounds) until you get into a match where the game drops nothing but the same color blocks (I like to call it the "Bonus Round").

For the Longest Journey (1 round matches) , build gems as big as you can before breaking them. The CPU plays pretty slow most of the time, so if break alot of gems at once around the time the diamond comes around, you can bury them with Red gems. It's mostly luck though since Dan drops nothing but red gems but you have unlimited continues on your side.
 
Yea I'll have to just keep on trying for the Longest Journey one but can you explain what or how you can make 3 or 5 rounds? Are you referring to the "Bonus Round" as the Boss fight at the end?

edit: OMG I almost had the motherlode achievement. I had a 5 by 5 block going and the last piece got blocked by a counter block and I couldn't clear it and still defeated the AI just didn't get the PowerGem big enough!>
 
I had a blast with it when it came out. I spent about 2 weeks before I "puzzle fightered" myself out of pretty much nonstop playing 3 hours a day. It's still fun but last time I checked the online was pretty much barren(like most games) and I was lucky to find a match in about ~20 minutes(which only lasted 2-3 minutes lol.)

Anyway i'd play but my 360 is dead :|
 
the 5 chain one happened for me from just regular playing(guess that's just my style)

I had to go out of my way on the first level(since it's the slowest + easiest level) to setup the 7 chain one(total pain btw)

Go into the option menu before starting a game, one of the settings lets you change the number of rounds you fight against the cpu and a human player.
 
Holy crap, I didn't see that setting in the options?! Thanks! Wow, what is counter gem edit mode, does that make a pattern for whoever you pick or whoever you fight?
 
I forgot about that. Yeah, I think it lets you make a pattern for whoever you pick but I think you can only use it in VS mode (I gotta mess around with that).
 
I dl'd the first one on XBLA, but colorblindness ftl...

It was pretty sweet except almost impossible for me to distinguish the yellows and greens in that game :/

I'm up for MP on N+ or Poker Smash whenever you want to play some.

cool, I always see you one but never got around to sending you any game invites. Gonna have to fix that sometime soon. Would love to actually finish up the MP levels on N+ (I've only gone through 5) and Poker Smash is flat out a whole lot of fun
 
[quote name='BackInBlack']lol, i thought this thread was for another version coming out...did the OP think we didnt have a thread for this by now?[/quote]

Gee sorry, like I said I didn't find it, searched for Puzzle Fighter but anyways the last post in that thread was from October 07 so I think it's time to hit the reset button. I thought that the old thread was lost due to changing over to servers this year. Your link has been added to the first post.

Playing with more than one round an opponent changes the game and I'm enjoying a longer play session.:D I still find Dan impossible to play on hard all the way through.:cry:
