Nice, but doesn't this game come free with every 360 with a HDD anyway?

m234773d ago

A lot of people have accidentally deleted it, and they had to call Microsoft to get the game back. This makes it a lot easier for those people.

Sidology4773d ago

It does, but if you ever buy a 360 second-hand, chances are that that person has reformatted their harddrive to erase all their personal data before trading it in or selling it.

In that case, it's easier to format the drive and call it good than to individually delete items of data.

This is cool... I formatted my HDD once and lost it. So people in the same situation can get it.

Pretty good puzzle game too.

It's not bad, but Puzzle Quest is better!

Boring game. Not entertaining at all. But my girlfriend loves it so...^^

Top 10 Early Xbox 360 Live Arcade Games

Revisiting the dawn of downloadables. Xbox 360 changed the way console gamers get their fix by introducing Xbox Live Arcade games to the mainstream. Sure, the original Xbox had a rudimentary online store that was launched via a mail-order disc, but Xbox 360 made it easy by integrating a Marketplace into the user interface. Believe it or not, its decade anniversary is this year and I made this list to celebrate.

The Top 10 Most Frustrating Xbox LIVE Achievements

The world of the Achievement Hunter can be a challenging one, but even the most accomplished AH suspects that some Achievements were never actually meant to be unlocked, at least not by most players.

Proud to have mile high club , gears trilogy seriously was not my kind of thing , although finished them on insane , asking for 10k kills is just too much and online!! I cant believe Lost planet 2 didnt make the list ,half of its achievements were annoying ,or that damn challenge 6 in Vanquish or mortal kombat 9 achievemnt which required over 800 hours , gives me shivers just to remember that and those trials in steert fighter 4 .

admiralvic3536d ago

The achievements for Lost Planet 2 weren't that bad, but some of the titles (of which all the achievements were part of) were indeed annoying. Still surprised I did them all.

Like I mentioned in the other article, I really don't see why so many people make this out to be hard / frustrating when it will simply come naturally if you play long enough. Yeah its tedious, I can't deny that, but it certainly isn't as bad as the NUMBER 1 title in Lost Planet 2 (get #1 in the world on a leaderboard that was, to my knowledge, never reset), most of Spelunky is pretty frustrating (especially the ones that require endless amounts of luck and skill to accomplish) and if we want to count tedious trophies, then Rayman Legends getting level 11 is way up there (requiring you to play an indefinite amount of daily challenges with the absolute minimal being like 32), along with many others.

A recent one that comes to mind is True Sniper (airfield mission for me personally) on Sniper Elite 3 seriously soul destroying so lucky the disk wasn't pizzarised.
