There's nowhere I can't reach.

There are no leaderboards in Oblivion. Just content download.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I know that, but there is no section in which it fits exactly, and I think leaderboards is as close as it's gonna get to an "XBL Aware" catagory, so I put it there.

Besides, look at your entry in the first post.

Guess I should just leave Oblivion off completely then. Any objections?

Most amazing jew boots

Nope. Sounds good to me.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Kameo: Elements of Power is now officially Xbox LIVE Multiplayer Compatible. You have to download the system link / XBL co-op add-on (free) from Marketplace as well as download the in-game auto-update. A little late, but still good news.

First post finally up-to-date. Check my section on you thoroughly to make sure I didn't fuck anything up.

I've been playing a lot of Blazing Angels:Squadrons of WWII online recently, Tube. Can you add that to my list please?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Sure. I'll have to assume this is Shin speaking.

Sweet Updates Incoming


PGR3 Auto Update
Posted: April 14, 2006 @ 10:02 am (2 hours, 50 minutes ago) By: Major Nelson

PGR3

Toss in PGR3, and when you connect to Xbox Live, there is an awfully nice auto update waiting for you. This AU adds some new features, including the following:

Tournaments – Be one of 64 players to qualify with the best lap time using a car and route that’s predetermined. If successful, move on into the Elimination rounds to compete with 7 other drivers. The top 4 in each race move on until the final race where only the first place driver earns the victory.

Tournament Channel (Gotham TV)– Watch other players race in tournament Elimination rounds.

“Quit to Lobby” (Abandon option in PlayTime race) Host can now take all participants back to the lobby in a play time session, rather than booting them all back to the Play Time menu.

“Lock to Host Car” and “Lock to Host Car Class” (PlayTime | Xbox Live | Create Race | Race Mode | City | Route) are two new toggles that the lobby creator can turn on or off to limit what type of cars his/her competition can use in a play time race over Xbox Live.

Previously Played Routes List (PlayTime | Route Creator | Previous Live Routes) – Play other gamers routes that they created in the Route Creator over Xbox Live and store up to 10 in your “Previously Played Routes List”. You have the option to save or discard them and use them in your own sessions.

All Cars Position Toggle (More | Options | HUD | Position toggle) – In races modes with multiple cars where target is not displayed, this shows the current place every car in the race is in throughout the event.

Hide HUD Toggle (More | Options | HUD | HUD toggle) – This gives the player the option to turn off ALL in race HUD displays in all camera views.

Voice Communicator Identifier – In a multiplayer race the name of the gamertag will now flash in the upper left hand corner when speaking into a voice communicator, making it possible to identify the speaker.

Online Career rotating car class hoppers – All 8 hoppers in the Online Career (Breakneck Racing, Nurburgring F1 Challenge, Speedway Skirmish, Knockout World Tour, Nordschleife Drivers Club, Urban Rally, Gotham Duelling, and Dusk Til Dawn Racing) now change the required entry car class daily.

Wheel Support – Control set for steering wheels and dynamic updates have been added for the Hori, Mad Catz, and Joytech Nitro wheels (all via the More | Options | Controller | Wheel A configuration).

Online Qualifier Achievement – 50 gamerscore is now awarded for qualifying, then attempting the first elimination round of a tournament.

PLUS:
The HUD no longer remains invisible after looking back, hitting the Guide button, and then re-entering the game and it’s now possible to view if you have already purchased a car while shopping in the showroom via the “Cars Owned” tally under the Car Stats section.

Have fun!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Note on the Live Marketplace updates posted by Tube.

The Best Buy, Circuit City, and Gamestop cars in Burnout Revenge are still locked and available only through the downloads from kiosks in their respective stores. But I believe the recent live autoupdate for Burnout corrected the previous issues that existed with these cars.

Secondly, there is also a pay download for a pack of cars for PGR3. You can buy them as a package for 400 MSP or you can get them individually at the cost of 60 MSP each. The package is a far better deal.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

If you look at the in-game EA Burnout News thingy whatever, it says you can unlock the Circuit City/Best Buy/Gamestop cars in the game. Two are just for getting a medal on two particular events in the Assassin/Dominator rank, and one is for completing the Motor City Challenge sheet. Of course, it didn't give me any even though I have the requirements already filled, but I'm going to try to get the medals again and see if that works.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I believe what it meant was that you have to download the cars and transfer them off the MU, and after that you can use them in Live immediately, but need to unlock them in the main game by doing the requirements mentioned on the news page.

I believe this is so someone just starting out doesn't have access to a 10/209/SL car right off the crack, as that would make winning the first 5 ranks incredibally easy. (Even easier than it is now.)

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Just picked up Dead or Alive 4. Goodbye, daylight.

FELIPE NO

EDIT 3: Got Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter.

Just an update if anyone really gives a shit. Live is down for the next number of hours (along with the entire xbox.com website) for maintenance functions. Apparently features are being added or something, I don't really know as I can't find any concrete info on it.

Who knows, we might be getting something interesting out of it. Here's hopin'.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Good thing I've got the details:


Those of you eagerly awaiting the E3 content next week on the Xbox Live Marketplace, have to wait no longer to learn what you'll be able to download.

From 8th May until 15th May, those of you accessing the Marketplace can access some of the best E3 content including the first Gears of War hi-def trailer, a playable demo of Lost Planet: Extreme Condition and theres even time for some Game with Fame sessions live from the show floor with celebs like Dave Navarro, Method Man and Jenny McCarthy (and yes we haven't a clue either who they are!).

Over 60 pieces of content will be avaliable altogether, including demos and trailers from the show floor. Here's a complete list of what is on offer:

Playable demos/trailers:

* Test Drive Unlimited
* Moto GP 06
* Crackdown
* Dead or Alive: Xtreme 2
* LOTR: The Battle for Middle Earth II
* Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
* Sonic The Hedgehog
* Splinter Cell: Double Agent
* Viva Pinata
* And plenty more trailers for unannounced games!

Also avaliable:
* Call of Duty 2 - New Multiplayer Map Packs
* Release of UNO on Xbox Live Arcade
* Game with Fame sessions
* Play and Win contests with Xbox 360 and Arcade titles
* Hi-Def blockbuster movie trailer downloads
* Limited edition E3 gamerpics and themes
* Backstage Pass to see developers preparing for E3

And now we can see why Xbox Live needed a day off to prepare for next weeks events. But we'll be there to bring you all the images and footage you need!
__________


Lookin' forward to UNO; probably out on the 10th. Also, DOAX2 won't disappoint. No one cares that much about CoD2 packs and WHERE THE HELL ARE THE NEW PDZ MAPS ALREADY.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I might actually spin some PDZ if they drop new maps for it, who knows.

Anyway, thanks for the info Tube. =D

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

This'll explain as to why when I was whipping up some breakfast I couldn't connect online, was hoping to unload before taking my accounting exam.

I definitely look forward to the HD Sonic trailer/demo, it looked impressive over at the Kikizo website. I guess it's safe to say we won't get any Nintendo Wii trailers only updates concerning the 360. :lolsign:

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Now you can recieve messages at Xbox.com, and if you're a Gold member, you can send them as well. Pretty sweet.

My friend says there's a rumor about an update coming soon that will allow you to download files in the background while playing a game. That would be most welcome.

How ya doing, buddy?

That's not a rumor, they even said that in OXM.
