Holy crap, I was really confused since you can't buy ME2-3 on XBL directly, I had no idea they were selling download cards at retail. How long have they been out? This is kind of a big deal as far as the platform goes.

 

I'm not sure you can...

I played it a bit on PS4.  Got bored and traded it.  Was thinking of buying it again.  Except it looks like I already did (on PSN).  Maybe some day i will give it another try.  I don't recall it having any game play issues and this was a long while ago too.  

Thanks I think I will buy then

Evil within supposedly had issues at launch but it's since been patched. I ran into some glitches when I played it a couple of years ago, but nothing major.

Meh, $270 for something I can't even install a game on isn't really worth it...

Speaking of Mass Effect 3, has the CAG who let his EA Access lapse and could still play his installed 360 games updated whether he can still play them?

He is mocking the 1"GB" hard drive. Instead of 1TB.

Oh, thanks for clearing that up, read right over that.

 

Seems like a reasonable deal other than the typo.

Yeah, I looked it up and noticed it's not available on the website. Must be in-store though or else OP couldn't have purchased it. Very strange.

Not expecting any BC news this week since most of the staff is at Gamescom or not working there I'm assuming.

Would love to hear some OG XBox news though.

AMC killed e tickets for Movie pass. Will still be able to go to the theater to buy tickets in advance for reserve seating, but was really nice to be able to reserve a seat and ticket on the app.


Are you sure? Last I heard they were thinking of pulling out of movie pass entirely

I knew it looked wrong when I typed it but couldn't figure out why.  After Darby's post it clicked for me.

They were trying to but it’s not that simple. It’s really just a debit card. They were threatening a lawsuit though.

Love me some AoE II. Curious to see what the DE entails though. It wasn't that long ago they made an HD version and have since added 3 additional expansions to it. (just bundle it all together?)

Shadow Warrior(2013) is free on steam. Might save someone $8 if they were thinking of buying the combo pack.

Edit: Free Until 10 AM PST 8-23-2017

Yeah that would be my guess as well.

It doesn't specify what ring you need to be in, so maybe just downloading the Xbox Insider app is enough?

 

Select users can join the DRAGON BALL FighterZ closed beta on Xbox One through the Xbox Insider Program. To participate on Xbox One, install the Xbox Insider Hub from the Store or launch it from My games & apps. If you’ve been selected to participate, you’ll see an announcement in the Xbox Insider Hub’s Announcement feed. To join, go to Insider content > DRAGON BALL FighterZ and select Join.

 

There is vague language saying that not everyone would be able to join, but you don't know until you try.

For those wondering about evil within ? Get t similar to re4 but at times it can be tough... I sure I have died 1000 times already. I'm glad it's on sale so I can rebuy it after trading it in a couple months back. Almost finished the game got stuck on one of the later boss battles so looking forward to finish it before the sequel comes out

Nothing in my announcements or Insider Content -> Games. I guess I can keep checking and hope. Seems dumb tho, why not just let people that are interested sign up, like they're doing for ps4?

PSA: The crazy GS trade in program is back starting today through 9/3.
Trade-in 2 games, get a 20% bonus. Trade in 4 games, get a 40% bonus. Trade in 6 games, get a 60% bonus.
Receive 10% more if you are a Pro member.

The ONLY reason I am posting this in here is because this is how I got my X for "free" - I traded in a ton of old stuff. I know several other CAG brethren did the same thing. I went from saying fuc|< Gamestop, to fucking Gamestop. Now you can too.


I want to do this for a PS4.

Hated Evil Within at launch. Want to give it another shot now that I've heard problems had been fixed.

The $10 purchase you are considering will replace the disc and you will still have access to the Gold Edition DLC. Do you already have it installed on your console from EA Access? If so, it won't show up in your RtI section because it's already installed.

No, my sub ran out last week, the game continued to work for another day, after it gave me the Do You Own This Game message I uninstalled it.

Getting ready to call ms support back for another round of trying to fix this.

What I am saying is this - The game is already installed on your console from your time with EA Access, so if you redeem a code for the game somewhere (console or website) the game won't show up in your Ready to Install list because it is already installed.

 

And you may have already answered the question with your reply above, but have you tried to run the game after you redeemed the code?

My advice for CSRs: there is no in between, either be patient and understanding, or yell and threaten them. I go with the first option but I had a roommate that only got results by being over the top rude and not backing down. I listened to him trying to be nice a few times and he just got jerked around. I've had the opposite effect, I only get results when I'm really patient and emphasize how it's not that CSRs fault.
