Everyone who doesn't suck.
OH SNAP! Crisis averted, and Melf goes down! Time Pilot: 404,000. I had hoped to put a bit more distance between me and Trial - I never thought I'd get anywhere close to Melf's 33x,xxx.
Wow... I'm now ranked #67. That's amazing to me.
Really, really should have been MKII. Couldn't give a crap about MK3.Quote:

Oh snap! I'll have to retake my crown this weekend.Quote:

Maybe it means individual people, not overall kills.
Maybe not, haven't tried Deathmatch.
UMK3 is gonna be amazing, if it actually comes out this week, I'll stay up 'til 4am (or whatever) to get it, and play until dawn.
This pissed me off too. WTF?Quote:

Is Heavy Weapon coming out soon? That game looks awesome.
Even if we don't get a good XBLA game at least we get the ENTIRE GAME OF PHANTASY STAR UNIVERSE!!!
Even if you don't plan on holding onto it, because of the monthly fee, this is a pretty major download.

If by some chance Ms. Pac-Man hit tomorrow, that + the PSU demo would make it the best week of the Xbox Live Marketplace ever. Thus, there's no way Ms. Pac-Man will be hitting.
Dig Dug digs into XBLA
Namco's coin-op classic burrows onto Xbox Live Marketplace at 1 a.m. tonight for 400 points ($5).

Dig Dug pump, pump, pumps it up.
The onslaught of arcade titles on Xbox Live Arcade continues tonight, as Namco's cabinet classic Dig Dug debuts on the online service tonight as part of Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays.
Beginning at 1 a.m. on October 11, gamers can download the game for 400 Marketplace points ($5). The new game comes with the requisite "enhanced graphics," HD support in 720p and 480p, a dozen achievements to earn, and online leaderboards.
Dig Dug sees gamers digging into the earth to eliminate enemies, armed only with a pump. The objective of the game is to clear each board of enemies by shooting them with a harpoon and inflating them until they explode. Dig Dug can also cause rocks to fall and crush multiple bad guys for bonus points.
LOL @ Evilmog!

Ok, I got it. I don't see how in the world I can possibly get the "Dig up an entire level" achievement.
lol, easy.
DLed the trial, but I can't see myself buying this unless I'm REALLY eager for achievements...
...which means I'll probably end up buying it.
I <3 Dig Dug. This was my game when I was a kid, some of my earliest gaming was done on a colecovison playing Mr. Do. Then this on Atari.
I really like Dig Dug, I just feel abused by all the old arcade games.
I need to stop buying shitty xbla games like dig dug to rack up my gamescore! :( i'll never do this shit again, well come to think of it, unleast i unlocked a couplel of acheivements.....last-time-ever!
Is Ms. Pacman for sure coming out? I'm thinking about downloading Pacman, but if Ms. Pacman is going to be released, I'll just wait.
Yeah, it is.Quote:

You're all going to hell. Dig Dug is awesome.
I forgot how old Dig Dug really is. I used to love that game, but damn, time has not been kind. Looks like I'll just hold out for UMK3 for my next XBLA buy.
same here, im never going to buy anymore XBLA crap.....unless it's UMK3 or Geometry Wars 3 :)Quote:

Dig Dug is my favorite XBLA game. Frogger sucks though.

Looks like the E3 demo of Mutant Storm Reloaded there. It was a ton of fun, and one of the best looking games on the 360. I'm looking forward to it in a big way, especially after weeks on end of 80s retread.

Did that happen when I sneaked by your high score? :pQuote:

Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved isn't a remake of the first, it's a true sequel. New enemies, the scrolling playfield, and the refined difficulty curve make it more than just an update. The original game is in there as well, so do a quick comparison and check it out.
But I know what you mean about the little shit. People at work keep saying Bully is from the people who did GTA and it drives me nuts. By that logic, Bully is from the people who did State of Emergency too. Or Earthworm Jim 64, for that matter.
James
They have said that it's "Retro Evolved" and not "2" because Geometry Wars 2 with a 2 player mode is something that is coming to XBLA.Quote:

I'd take Contra. That should be soon right?Quote:

Lumines Live tomorrow. 1200 points, and a 600 point pack that adds a bunch of skins.
$22.50? Jeez.
1200 points? damn it. Time to get some more points.
lol that sucks. But at least its not Gran Turismo HD.
edit: Lumines blows
I'll apply that $22.50 towards Splinter Cell.
I think I'm going to do that too. Lumines is fun, but not $15 fun without unlockable skins. Having to pay an extra 800 points for skins is fucking lame, and I will not support that.Quote:
