So anyone planning a Windows 8 Store gaming thread? I hav a tonne of questions but don't want to totally derail the thread.
Jetpack Joyride W8 is up. It's free. It's a 1:1 port of the original game. The in-app purchases seem to be more expensive (I remember the counterfeit machine being $0.99 in the original game, $1.49 here)--maybe this got rebalanced with the original game went F2P, but I bought the game back when it was $0.99. Graphics seem to be a pretty hasty upres but it still plays excellently.
Also Microsoft's "Add Payment Method" system doesn't seem to be working correctly, at least with respect to adding a Paypal account. Edit: Yeah, I was able to add a CC, just not Paypal. I get redirected to Paypal and go to add the account but when the browser redirects back to the MS servers it doesn't work.
Hopefully RE4 is worldwide and not just US...
it's £7.49 on the uk store, so I think that means it's 800 points here too. I can't check how much that is in points because I'm not home.
Nope, 920msp in the UK.
It's 9.99 in Belgium.
I'm disappointed that Code Veronica didn't also get discounted.
ooh, luckily I have 1000 points left, but this sort of price increase is severely annoying. isn't one of the benefits of using a universal points system supposed to be that it's the same price in all regions?
go to the games application, it will only list live enabled games.I keep overlooking the Xbox Live games in the Windows Store... I missed this one as well, despite looking for Live games last night. The store should have an option to display just the Xbox Live games (as WP does).
go to the games application, it will only list live enabled games.
they should appear, click on windows games.And the game application does not list all live enable games, for some reason.
Neither Jetpack Joyride or Reckless Ultimate Racing appears there.
You know if people are going to be talking about Games on Demand and Windows Phone games in this thread, maybe the title should be changed to something less specific.
they should appear, click on windows games.
Yep, we should rename it to the thread where randomlyrossy just moans and doesn't bother reading the thread before re-answering questions that have already been answered hours before.
GoD talk only happens once a week and the Windows 8 and WP stuff is just temp. If you want the thread to be actually about XBLA stuff maybe you could post something productive in it?
Apologies if it's already been discussed earlier. It's just those parts of the Marketplace are already confused by a lot of people. So letting the XBLA thread be a mix of GoD discussion, even if it is generally because of the sales, doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

It does not. Maybe it is temporary problem before launch, but not all games appear there.
And there is no way to sort it by release date or any other method.
you must not be in the US
yeah they did roll out a update recently.Truly I am not in US, but my Live Account is US and the Windows 8 setting are configured to US.
But that screen was not like that to me yesteday night. There was just a line of games, which scrools horizontally. Fruit Ninja, Jetpack and Reckless Racing were missing.
It may had updated after I checked. I will check again tonight.
Anyway I guess it will be sorted out until Friday.
Does Jetpack Joyride have all the latest content? All the gadgets, outfits and jetpacks?
What an utterly lame halloween sale... Where's Amy, Haunt, Deadlight, Alan Wake, I Am Alive and countless other horror-themed XBLA games? Ugly Americans isn't even close to that.
I haven't played the iOS version since the gadget update but the W8 version does have gadgets and more outfits/jetpacks than I remember, so I'm guessing yes.
Hey everyone I just got a new 360 and have been out of the Xbox World for about 2 years now but I'm back onboard now, and I was looking for some MUST have recommendations for the Xbox live arcade titles.

To answer myself: Yes, you do need a VPN connection to download this.just one question: do I need a VPN connection in order to download this RE4 since it's a GoD game, not XBLA? I'm asking because I'm not in a officially supported XBL country. I'm from Croatia and my XBL account is in the UK and IIRC, I need a VPN connection with a UK IP address to download GoD games and some region-locked content.
