major you said the gamerscore achievement challenge event is for only people in North America..but your wrong...its only for people in the U.S. ...us canadians always get scrooed :( majorrrr!!!
ur welcome
Yeah, NA isn't true Xbox Rewards is A only.
Oh pleeease make a sequel to Gears of War!
Major you should do a show on this! http://kotaku.com/gaming/kotaku-magu/kotaku-magu-tretton-offers-to-buy-unsold-ps3s-for-1200-235204.php
Tretton owes me some $$$.
O HAHA I wasnt to the after show yet! lol
Nice show Major. I especially loved the interview with Shane Kim...you should get him on again sometime in the future!
Sweet, I'll listen to it tomorrow.
Aww i know thats not the Crackdown logo in your recent games section, man i cant wait for that game.
Completely unrelated but very important note:
I don't know how many of the shows on Live Marketplace this applies to, but I bought episode five of the first season of Drawn Together (The Other Cousin) and it turned out to be episode five of season two.
I want that specific episode so I can show it to friends, and now I can't get it even though I paid for it. =(
Help me, Major!
disappointed ... was hoping BIGVIP was going to answer some of the questions about the (achievement) rewards program
Why are all of these shows so long and boring? Go listen to something like the CAGcast if you want something different and stop sucking up to this bozo.
I wiuld like to see in the next dashboard update.
1) To have trial Arcade games not show up in the achievement summary list.
2) To have windows live chat
I would like to see a bigger HARD DRIVE and some NEW FACEPLATS
Awesome to hear that the "Shivering Isles" expansion for Oblivion will have the extra 250 achievement points! Good work Bethesda.
thought you woulda pushed shane on what's next for MGS , we have knew about this years and the start of next's games for ages now (fable2,Halo3,Alan Wake, Too Human,Lost odessey,forza,Banjo,Mass effect,Shadowrun).
I wanna know how MS has us coverd for the future :P.
P.S .. did i miss any ?:)
I agree with UsefulCross, it would be nice to
see some more faceplats
Lets see group chat on the 360.
