The Old XBOX Megathread

[Monkey D. Lars]

I just booted up my xbox to see that suddenly my gamerscore has been reset, do not know why but I am pissed

[King Ellis]

Yeah, I didn't even notice until I went to look at some achievements I got and it said I had 40 gamerscore. Nearly had a heart attack. On the dash it says I have 4 games played and a different gamerscore, I forget what. Higher than 40 at least but lower than the true 70000+.

Was just about to message Xbox Support on Twitter but their timeline is full of replies stating they're looking into it.

Though Xbox.com itself still lists all my games and their achievements so hopefully this is just a minor issue and should be fixed easily.

Whilst i'm posting, I wouldn't be opposed to some Gears. I need to beat it again caus it glitched my profile and everything was reset so I need to do another playthrough so I can play on Insane. Doing it on Arcade mode would be preferable so I can get the various things for that.

[Monkey D. Lars]

I almost had I heart attack, almost done finishing Asura's Wrath than this happens. Luckly I'm not the only one. Also a lot of complains on Xbox360achievements.org. O well I hope it will be fixed soon.

Yeah I could do an Insane run on Gears sometime, especially with the DLC out this month I will be in a Gears mindset.

[ADG]

I've just got Gears, I'd like to do co-op at some point.

[9 to 5]

Well that's a foursome sorted.

[Benji]

Hey! Fuck you! You aren't going insane without me

[9 to 5]

More likely to go Insane with you.

[Benji]

Whenever I hear "Benji", I pretend it's the voices in my head (Y)

[9 to 5]

Good job we shout "BANJI!" then, so you know the differance!

[King Ellis]

BANSHEE

[Benji]

I always imagine that's my mind protesting the letter G - "BAN G! BAN G!". I play Ears of War, the twist being that I don't listen.

[Kaney]

Excuse me, Banjo was my invention.

Speaking of Gears...

Gears of War 3 will be making the leap to 2000 Gamerscore upon the release of its Forces of Nature DLC later this month, with Epic Games unveiling the add-on's ten new achievements worth an extra 250 Gamerscore.

The Forces of Nature add-on sees an additional five new multiplayer maps, namely Raven Down from Gears 1, Jacinto from Gears 2 and the new Aftermath, Artillery and Cove maps, as well as Mechanic Baird, Commando Dom, Savage Grenadier Elite and Savage Hunter character skins.

There's also seven new unlockable weapon skins and new easter egg weapons known as 'Elemental Cleavers'. Here's the Forces of Nature DLC achievements:

Gears of War 3 Forces of Nature DLC will be coming to Xbox Live on March 27th for 800 Microsoft Points, and is the last piece of content included in the cost of the GoW3 Season Pass, which is 2400 Microsoft Points.

[Regia]

I swear I played Gears recently, yet my xbox tells me I last played it in January.

[Dan]

I still need to do Gears on insane

[Monkey D. Lars]

I also still need Gears on Insane and with 3 other players

[9 to 5]

That should be enough for two teams worth then.

[Benji]

Dibs on the team with Niney and Ellis! We were brothers to the end, and I will not let that die!

[RoHitman Reigns]

Can I call dibs for the final spot?
