I am sad my says 5 instead of 6, but that is even worse!

 

[UltimateIke]

Why would anyone want the helmet? Then you don't get to see your avatars face, making it just a pricey stormtrooper model, at least IMO.

If they have the helmet, you should get it for free with the rest of the outfit. Whether you wear it or not would be up to you.

Only two years of Xbox Live Gold? What the fuck MS I've had it at least 5 years fools.

 

[StickyFingers]

Anybody here know why there is a number on my gamercard next to my name? I've seen it by different people.

Only two years of Xbox Live Gold? What the fuck MS I've had it at least 5 years fools.

If you were ever a Silver member for a period of 14 days during those five years, it reset your tenure.

Anybody here know why there is a number on my gamercard next to my name? I've seen it by different people.

That shows how many years you've been a Xbox Live Gold member.

What are you talking about, where is this located?

It's the number of years you have been a member of Live.

 

[Gowans]

I can't wait to have a look through my friends list tonight, I know a bunch of friends will have splurged.

I got the 40MSP eye patch to make my guy look like a little bad arse.

 

[xbhaskarx]

Only two years of Xbox Live Gold? What the fuck MS I've had it at least 5 years fools.

Yeah, mine is like that, too. I don't really care about the lost Xbox street cred but it's still a bit annoying that it's wrong.

But oh shit that's like a zillion months away.

 

[KWA223]

For some strange reason I keep getting kicked offline
Anyone else having this problem?

Spoiler

Also for some reason I 'splode and 'splode but get no unlocks for 'Splosion Man

 

[CoilShot]

So props don't show to people on friends list?

 

[NekoFever]

Lightsaber...

That sounds cool. I might pay a few points for one of those...

...400ms points.

D:

 

[McBacon]

Only when you go "View Details"

 

[Kujo]

Best part about the helmet

That shows how many years you've been a Xbox Live Gold member.

It's the number of years you have been a member of Live.

Thank you.

What are you talking about, where is this located?

On yours or anyone else's profile, it's located on the corner opposite of your name. It wasnt there the first time, but others had it. Or it takes time or you just have to play something, I don't know.

 

[MMaRsu]

Only when you go "View Details"

In other words, useless as a 100 dollar suit on a drunk hobo

 

[KWA223]

Looking though that list some of this stuff is so overpriced. I was hoping most of the stuff would be cheaper than Arcade Games

Spoiler

I had 40 extra points lying around and the cheapest thing there is an eyepatch

 

[HUELEN10]

I know it is like 5GB, but is it just me, or do GoD games take forever to download? Just got up to 50 percent with Sonic 06...

 

[Upsidedown Fuji]

I'm a Japan gaffer with a USA live gold account. I've always wanted to play SONIC 2006 but the price in Japan has been holding me back. The game averages 2900-3500 yen used and still 6000yen+new.

So 19.99 USD is looking rather good for a Japan gaffer like me. The only thing holding me back is that if this game play/download to Japanese based IPs using Japanese systems?

I'm also looking forward to HUELEN10's reactions to SONIC 2006 games on demand download. Was any effort put into fixing any of the loading at all? Or is it just as bad as the hard copy still?

 

[StickyFingers]

Oh man, I went to check out the American Marketplace, holy shit!! Why is there more avatar stuff available then here in Europe? Atleast here in The Netherlands.

Does MS not want my money? Do I not want to buy that COG outfit? Fuuuuuuck

As I have previously, an installed copy is shittier due to longer loads than if played on disc. What I want to see is if this release fixes this, or any other problems. If you think it is a decent deal, and can find fun in shitty games like I can, then go for it regardless.

 

[OMG Aero]

Lightsaber - 400ms points.

If anyone here has spent 400 MS Points on a virtual lightsaber you should be ashamed of yourself.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

How awesome are the Pom Poms?

Does the avatar dance on My Xbox as well?

 

[user_nat]

There has to be better value stuff to spend your hard earned Microsoft points on than avatar clothing.

 

[Flipyap]

Looking though that list some of this stuff is so overpriced. I was hoping most of the stuff would be cheaper than Arcade Games

The one good thing about the pricing is that it will prevent my friends page from being filled with ridiculous, over-accessorized avatars.
That of course doesn't apply to props, which are the coolest-looking things on the marketplace, but horribly overpriced for something with such limited use.
And why the hell do they disappear when you move your avatar's head?

 

[HUELEN10]

How awesome are the Pom Poms?

I will tell you as soon as they are downloaded! Need to wait for Sonic 06 to finish first though. I wonder if the color can be changed. Mona with blue poms would be awesome...

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

There has to be better value stuff to spend your hard earned Microsoft points on than avatar clothing.

Probably. But who cares? It's Stormtrooper armor.

I know right? MS am retarded.

 

[HUELEN10]

Dude, I just bought YET ANOTHER copy of SONIC FUCKING 06, off of the still-controversial GAMES ON DEMAND service. I think I have GAF covered in the event of the aforementioned sin. :lol

 

[toff74]

Just installed the update..

I'll be damned! lightsabres, yoda t's, halo gear, adidas gear.. stuff is hard to resist lol.

As soon as the missus see this, she'll be straight on it.. Pink adidas hooded top, etc

 

[Giard]

There has to be better value stuff to spend your hard earned Microsoft points on than avatar clothing.

Well for 400 Allards you could get a useless lightsaber that no one will see except if they go in View Details....or you could get Doom, Worms, Geometry Wars...

The cool stuff is priced at 400 msp for a reason: They know that they're gonna sell like cupcakes anyways.

 

[Fortinbras]

I think I'm going to buy the pompoms. The animation is really funny.

 

[KWA223]

Probably. But who cares? It's Stormtrooper armor.

It's so expensive and you don't even get a helmet, if only it was something cool, like a Star Trek red shirt or something

 

[Upsidedown Fuji]

Oh yeah fun can be found in shitty games if they're at the right price (19.99 is the sweetspot for me.) I will get the game either way but I won't select the buy button till I know I can actually download and run it on my system. It would suck to pay for something only to find out I'm locked out because of my IP location/region of my xbox.

I'm still curious about what you have to say about the new downloadable version. Got my F5 button all ready.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

I wouldn't ever wear the helmet so I'm probably the wrong guy to ask.

 

[Psychotext]

I think I'm going to buy the pompoms. The animation is really funny.

It's not hard to see why it's one of the best selling items. :lol

 

[CoG]

Probably. But who cares? It's Stormtrooper armor.

No it's not, it's Clonetrooper armor. Original trilogy gear would have been a lot cooler, but fuck if I would pay for even that.

 

[Feindflug]

wow! Avatar marketplace is way overpriced...400 points for a f*ckin' lightsaber? WTF? I could get Doom, Worms or Assault Heroes instead. :lol

They're not taking a single point from me...btw I guess Splosion Man and the other games with avatar unlockables must get an update or something because my free unlockable list is empty at the moment.

Also the Gears suits are not available in my country I guess because I wasn't able to even see them. :lol

Have you looked in All Items > Dress Up?

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Different strokes, etc. Out of the three people on my friends list online right now, two have already bought stuff.

 

[-PXG-]

Man, I want that Gears stuff, but I cannot justify paying for this kind of shit. Damn

 

[Iknos]

Man, I want that Gears stuff, but I cannot justify paying for this kind of shit. Damn

If you don't buy it they'll lower the prices like the did with Indie Games.

Maybe.

 

[Feindflug]

Have you looked in All Items > Dress Up?

You're right, I could see them that way...but 480 points for a COG suit and a helmet is freakin' stupid anyway.

BTW is it true that you have to go to the view details option to see the new outfits? if true then this + high prices = big fail...:lol

Props, not outfits.

The guitar and cellie animation are pretty great.

 

[-PXG-]

Oh trust me, I ain't buying any of that shit. At that price. Hell naw!

 

[OMG Aero]

No you don't, you just have to look at that person for a few seconds and then the prop appears.

 

[Feindflug]

Props, not outfits.

The guitar and cellie animation are pretty great.

Oh I see...the guitar and the cellie animations are indeed pretty cool but seriously the prices are ridiculous...all of that stuff should've been free and if not free definitely at much much lower prices.

Oh trust me, I ain't buying any of that shit. At that price. Hell naw!

Which is the right thing to do and especially buying more Gears crap after the Gears 2 fiasco.
