QUICK REMINDER!!

I just remembered that Bioshock Infinite is free on Xbox 360 Gold right now. I thought it was for February, so I'm glad I was wrong. Download it if you haven't done so!

Guys they're not hard, lol.

It's just annoying. For the no deaths, all you have to do is make a back up save and every time you're about to die, just quit to the main menu and then restart it. It still has your death count at 0. I'm 1:13:59 into the playthrough
currently at the 3rd to the last dungeon.

Might go for that one then. 3 hours and no abilities sound really tough to me though. I usually skip achivements like those in other games.

I knew I had to get them since they are the only ones left xD 

It's annoying to go for all three in one playthrough, but it's not too hard since you can abuse the 10 save slots and quit before you die. You just have to make sure your death counter stays at zero. Plus the pause and map menu does not count against you in time spent. By the pace i'm going I should have an extra 45 minutes of leeway.

Yep, downloaded it on Monday. Only had time to do the prologue and the first 2 levels/areas before The Walking Dead came in the mail though. I'll try to finish it before my next game comes from Gamefly.

lol I just remembered it and was like, "Oh damn, did I miss it?" Glad it was for March and not February. Still need to play Witcher 2! Also.. wasn't there a rumor about getting double games or something in April? Hope we get some good 360 games and maybe something good on the One.

Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty Xbox One Release Date

Abe is back, and crashing headfirst onto Xbox One very soon.

Oddworld Inhabitants, Inc are delighted to announce that Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty will launch on Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft via the ID@Xbox self-publishing program on March 27, 2015.

Marking the first outing of an Oddworld game on Xbox since Stranger’s Wrath in 2005, New ‘n’ Tasty is a ground-up remake of the much-loved original Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, developed by Just Add Water (Development) Ltd.

A cinematic platform adventure, New ‘n’ Tasty tells the tale of Abe, a hapless Mudokon who learns that his fellow meat factory co-workers are to be the main ingredients in the company’s next line of tasty treats.

Abe must escape RuptureFarms and beyond, liberating as many of his fellow workers as he can. Along the way, he’ll learn the secrets of his civilization and journey across perilous lands filled with dangerous creatures and lethal traps before returning to the sinister meat factory to put right the injustices faced by his long suffering species.

Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty will be available to download from the Xbox One Games Store on March 27 for $19.99, €19.99 and £14.99.

Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus remake and new entry depend on New ‘n’ Tasty sales


Oddworld is amazing, def support it on release. If it sells well they will be working on the next game as well.  I think like 500k or something.  Cant remember

If Oddworld: New ’n’ Tasty moves 250,000 units those sales will fund a remake of Abe’s Exoddus, while 500,000 units will support a brand new Oddworld game, creator Lorne Lanning told Eurogamer during GDC today.

According to Lanning, he hopes to finally bring the long-planned Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot to life, but does not consider the project ‘anything less than a $5 million title.” As such, he doesn’t want to turn to Kickstarter, through which he believes he could only gather a couple million in funding—enough to redo a game, but not create a brand new one.

“If I’m doing a new Oddworld game, I’m not going to do it for $2 million,” Lanning told Eurogamer. “I might do it for five or six. People keep asking me, ‘Why don’t you Kickstart Oddworld?’ And I’m like, ‘What would I do with a couple million on Kickstarter? On a new Oddworld title?’ Not much. I could redo Exoddus for a couple million. I could do that. But a new title, which means new characters doing new things and controls that are great—that’s where the real time and expenses come from.”

“But no matter what, Exoddus would come first,” he added. “And then we’d get into expansion packs for those titles.”

Oddworld: New ’n’ Tasty is an HD remake of 1997’s Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, the very first installment in Lanning’s offbeat platformer series. Development is being handled by both Oddworld Inhabitants and Just Add Water, the studio behind 2011’s Stranger’s Wrath HD and 2012’s Munch’s Oddysee Hd.

Interview with Mike Colter confirms a character returning, so posting it like this because of Halo 5 Campaign Spoilers =P 

I read it and it sounds like Halo 5 is practically done, it should have a prettyk seamless launch.

Hopefully 343 does what WWE is afraid to do with Cena and turn Chief heel, not  entirelly but at least for a portion of the game.



What does "turn Chief heel" mean? To let him disappear?



I started to play Tomb Raider on Xbox One again, played on X360 on 2013. I don't see any progress in the achievements bars. Is it a known, common problem? Am I still going to get the achievements?

In wrestling "heel" is the bad guy. There is also "babyface" who is the good guy.
