    I’m out. Lode Runner? More like lode of sh-

    • https://twitter.com/downsouthtigger Fred

      How did you not pick up lode runner when it was free? Youre slipping Buster!

      • http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf

        Because it was never free for me or something I dunno.

        • https://twitter.com/downsouthtigger Fred

          You mustve been out, seems CAG still has the threads up, not just once but twice. It was over a year ago though, so couldve been when you were in Canada?

    • Rob

      Lode Runner is the most underrated game on XBLA…..if you understand the system instead of running around aimlessly

    • Slam Shot Sam

      Pretty sure Lode Runner has never been free… Not in the UK, anyway.

    Got all 4 games, so hopefully I dont have much to do this weekend.

  • chris

    i have 2 games so far, might be getting joe danger 2.
    stupid question but can fruit ninja kinect be played with controller?
    i ask as some of these kinect games can

    • chris

      thought i had chance to win joe danger 2 from raptr but they wont email winners till next week. so i am stuck at 2 games

      • chris

        now that i think about i would have to have all games as i am not so good with spelunky lol

        • Luneth

          Edit button my friend. It’s a real useful tool.

          • http://facebook.com/xxquiksilver Kyle_Groulx

            Its not like he was hurting anybody with the posts, who cares? Not a place where people come to be judged. Its all about the gamesssss

          • chris

            sorry about that. did not realise

  • Anonymous

    Might go for it. I have all but Fruit Ninja and about 8 of the achievements.

  • Adrian Bolstridge

    Warning to people who are going for all the Joe Danger achievements: it is local multiplayer only. So you need 4 controllers or some buddies. Ideally you’d have some buddies as the game is pretty fun.

    Good luck to everyone.

    “You can pick 3 codes you’d like from the Games page, whether it’s DLC or a full game!”

    Some games like Mark of the Ninja are not on that list, can those be requested as well?

    • XBLA_Vulcan

      Yes. :)

  • Anonymous

    I just need the Fruit Ninja score based achievements (which I would have attempted) and to complete Lode Runner 1P Journey but Lode Runner is WAY too hard, it should have been one of the other ones…

  • Anonymous

    The Good: I actually have 3 of these games!
    The Bad: I have only played one of them. And it’s Spelunky.
    The Ugly: Spelunky. That’s going to be a tough nut to crack.

      Ultimately, it ended in failure. But I had a lit of fun, got to try some games I hadn’t put any time in as of yet, and got a lot deeper in Spelunky! Still angry with myself for dying foolishly with jetpack, shotgun, and more … I guess I’ll just have to keep playing it later!
      Thanks for the challenge.

        I also fail, too lazy to start lode runner and also addicted to Spelunky (definitely one of the best games of the year, took me like 25 hours finish the game and I still have half of the book and locations undiscovered , reminds me of the games I played as a child, full of charisma and secrets with a difficulty and gameplay that always invites you to continue playing.

        In addition to Joe Danger 2 which is also is very fun and challenging to get all the medals on the level (I never try and always finish in the top 20 of the leaderboards, what happen with the people XD)

        • Anonymous

          Agreed on both parts. I definitely spent more time on Joe Danger getting specific medals and such and look forward to playing more.

  • David Brown

    I don’t have any points to play this

  • Roku750

    Wow, it’s a bit hardcore again this week with both Spelunky and Lode Runner. Possibly Joe Danger 2 if it’s like Trials, but I just started it. I’ve missed the challenge a bit lately. This should be a fun one!

    • Anonymous

      Joe Danger 2′s achievements aren’t that bad. The only one that could be an issue is the one that requires that you have four controllers for multiplayer. Joe Danger 2 only has local multiplayer.

  • Slam Shot Sam

    Only have Fruit Ninja (and only have that as it was free with The Gunstringer) and I’m not intrested in any of the other games. I’m out.

    Quick question, how do you make a personalized link to your xbox.com account page?
