Yeah, it's definitely the hardest aspect of Crimson Dragon, and it's so much harder on co-op. We'll get that 3rd S-rank for the achievement another day, probably on a level that doesn't have any beacons xD

We know something isn't right when we celebrate an "A". I need to level up more as well, I'm so weak, I barely helped.

Xbox live was definitely not working properly, never had so many party problems in my life.

100% here ;)



My dragon age trial is about to end... Ordered it on amazon though. Will have to wait a week though. Amazing game. Bioware are truly masters at their trade. Really wish ms would have bot them when they had the chance.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

Just in case anyone tries to downplay XB1 sales this year (in the US at least) just remember this. Xb1 has done better this year in 2014 in the US, than PS3 ever did in any year, and better than 8/10 Xbox 360 years.

Also, on par with Wii's first year and tracking ahead, alligned.

If someone tries to downplay XB1 sales I would just ignore them =P

Why would you waste your precious time on people like that? You might think you're trying to educate them on the fact that XB1 is doing very well, but you have to understand most of them already know this and are merely saying it's doing bad to get you guys riled up. Or maybe they just like to spread misinformation.

But thats just me. If you feel the need to call them out on it then be my guest.

I get where you're coming from Angelus. From a business perspective it does make sense for Phil to concentrate primarily on Western games, the Japanese console market is in decline and Xbox is already at a disadvantage there becasue it's a foreign console; they'd probably lose money if they bought many Japanese exclusives. I just wish he'd at least try harder to get more devs to go multiplat, I don't really care if Xbox One gets any Japanese exclusives or not, I just want to play these game, I hate seeing them all release as PS4 exclusives. I feel like Phil could, for a minimal investment, start a 1st party Japanese studio, doesn't have to be a big studio, something the size of Twisted Pixel (30-40 devs) would be enough, that could make some Japanese games for Xbox One, show Japanese devs/publishers that MS is willing to support their own console with Japanese games, then maybe more of these Japanese devs would decide to go multiplat. It wouldn't hurt to get at least 1 Japanese exclusive as well, Shenmue, a Mistwalker game, a tri-Ace game, something. 

I'm not all that familiar with Shenmue. Is both the games 360 BC? And from your sig is Shenmue 3's release official?

The first game was only released on Dreamcast sadly, so you can't play it on 360. However Xbox copies of the 2nd game come with the movie version of the 1st game on disc, so you can still experience the story of the 1st game before playing the 2nd. You can also find the movie version of the 1st game on Youtube, it's about an hour and a half long. If you've never played Shenmue you should watch it, I'm sure you'll fall in love with it by about 7 minutes in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=de3UTAfKGfQ

I wish it was official. No, it's a fan box art sadly, but there's always some hope that it will become a reality, Phil Spencer has said on multiple occasions that he gets more requests for Shenmue 3 than any other game. 

But this is Phil. He gets many requests for Shenmue 3 but than he'll choose any other game :( I had a Dreamcast before they came out but I only played what was givin to me for helping out moderate a sega chat channel. And I can't remember what games they was besides I think a sonic one and house of the dead 2. Well at least the 2nd one came to the 360. Btw have you played Eternal Sonata? I was just thinking about that one and might check that one out.

I'm still playing Assassin's Creed Rogue. So between those 2 choices I'd play SoM first if it was me.



I was leaning towards SoM. I'll be on Halo and that then
