Holy crap, Joe Danger 2 bombed.
I just played the first 10% or so of the game, I'm a good player but there are definitely better, and I'm #230 on the world total score leaderboards.
Edit: Just checked per-level leaderboards. I only played each level once, and I'm #20-50 in every level I've played.

That doesn't sound right. Raptr gave away 5,000 copies on release so there should be at least that many on there.
Maybe they wiped the boards?
There is paid DLC coming for it.

I suspect most of those 5000 individuals never booted up the game. Just got #11 in another level :/

You might be better than you think? Rlan's analysis for the month it released had it at around ~6k total on the leaderboards. And I imagine it's probably added another 1k players or so since then. Could also mean that very few people that bought it actually played more than the very start? No idea.
That's not to say it didn't bomb. It's sold incredibly poorly, especially compared to the first game. I'll be picking it up on this sale, myself. I've barely played the first game due to having put time into that originally on the PS3 version but I figure I'll support the developers for a quality game.

Meh sale.
I have some of these, and others aren't priced enough to get me to buy.
Rockband 3 is interesting, but I don't have any instruments and no one sells them anymore.

Just get Trials Evolution. It basically renders Trials HD obsolete.
Plants vs Zombies for 600 points is a good deal on a great game.
5.51 GB. I believe the newest Xbox update allows for 32 GB flash drives.
*raises hand*
I actually enjoyed the first game quite a lot, so I have absolutely no idea why I haven't booted up The Movie yet.

Did they ever patch Joe Danger 2 to make it feature complete like the PS3 version?

Wait, really?
It's 320 here in Switzerland. Which is funny considering Games on Demand are usually expensive here, Skyrim is 6240 points or 99.- chf ( roughly 108 usd )
Hmm, interesting. I only keep my Xbox because of RB3 and I might go ahead and search for a big USB anyways. Thanks mate!

lol at The Simpsons price
Going to wait for daily deals I want, like Trials and Dust.

THANK YOU for this... I just got my xbox a few weeks ago and had NO idea I could use a 32gb flash drive. Right after I purchased my xbox (4gb Holiday Bundle) I got a 16gb flash drive because that is all I thought I could have ... now I'll be heading out Boxing Day to get two 32gb flash drives
Yep, lol.
If you have a PS3 with PS Plus in Europe these deals so far are not very interesting. Hope the next deals can be better.
Be careful if you want to play Halo though, I think they actually need a HDD for some stuff but I think that only applied to 3 and Reach, look it up just to be safe.THANK YOU for this...

Well, I guess it really depends on you, on your attitude to buy stuff the day-1, etc: I'll be getting discounted games/items - that I was looking for... Not just because of the low prices - until the very end of the sale so, for me personally, it's already good.

I had no idea.
I've already filled up two 16 GB drives that I take over to a friend's house when we drink/play.
Actually MadCatz is doing a pretty good sale on RB3 instruments right now. Most things over 50% off:

I'll either get Super Meat Boy, Dust or Mark of the Ninja. Which one do you guys recommend?

I haven't played Mark of the Ninja yet but I have Super Meat Boy and Dust and out of those two I'll recommend Dust*. It's a beautiful game. If you like 2D action RPGs you'll love this game.
*Dust: An Elysian Tail
All of them on the PC at the same time.
I haven't played it yet, but Mark of the Ninja seems like the better game.
Just download the demo of all 3 and figure it out.
Fox Mulder

The free demos for all of them.
I've only got smb out of those, but have been meaning to get mark of the ninja, it was well reviewed and seemed fun.

In what way? I was under the impression Evo's just more levels of Trials HD?

Oh god don't make me choose!
They're all really good and I recommend each of them =/
How long does Dust take to finish?

The price is listed as dollars but it should during checkout.
It's a "game on demand" game. If you want to buy with MSPoints, you have to "press X to change payment option" or something like that on the checkout window thing.

Don't know about PSN Plus but the real Plus here is this sale is open for gold and silver members, don't work the 'pay for get it cheaper' way.

Clay Davis

excellent start to the sale. will definitely be buying jet set radio when I get home, have virtually everything else. bring on the next bunch.
That is mighty tempting, but I live in europe and can't get those!!

It deserved to, tbh, it's a pretty awful game.
TS3 is brilliant. As you say, the toy box mode is really enjoyable. It's genuinely fun, rather than just "fun, for a movie tie-in."
Clay Davis
Member
what's wrong with it? I thought it was fantastic, built and improved considerably on the first game.
it's sad to see it fail to appeal as much as something like trials, even though they are completely different, I would have thought it would appeal to that crowd just based on the initial impressions / gameplay vids.
toythatkills

That's what I disagree with. The first game was plagued with some quite massive flaws and the second one just repeats them rather than make any effort to fix them. The game itself is basically identical but for some new stages, and I can completely understand why it didn't sell. It's basically a track pack for (formerly) $15 instead of a sequel which improves on its predecessor.
Clay Davis
Member
we'll have to agree to disagree. I thought they improved the game from the first one, but I can understand the track pack comment. I also felt some of the tracks were samey, but I let it slide as I was having so much fun.
Mark of the Ninja is my favorite of the 3.
