    Ugh, you’ve brought back that abominable need every game rule? Hoped that was gone for good. I mean I own every game, but it’s still a terrible stipulation, not to mention RESTRICTION.

    If I had Joy Ride Turbo, I could do this easily, as I have all of the Joe Danger & Trials Evolution achievements listed, plus two of the Hydro Thunder ones.

    If it didn’t require all four games, I’d go for the last two in Hydro Thunder, but alas, no entry for me this week.

      Yeah, it especially sucks when they pull this stunt and one of them is a bad game.

    I guess I’m out, another week where you have to own all 4.

    I’ll considering buying a game for the challenge when I actually win. No point in buying games I’m not interested in specifically for these challenges, and not getting anything out of it.

    I might grab Joyride Turbo and go for it. Just have to check my point balance…

  • Adrian Bolstridge

    I like the theme of the challenge, but sadly I don’t feel like rebuying Joe Danger after already buying it at launch on the PS3. I highly recommend the game. Oh well, good luck to all contestants.

  • chris

    what happened. last week was a step in the right direction where we did not have to have all games and now they go backwards and you need all games again.
    sucks

    I wish this was going by last week’s rules. I actually own 3 of the 4 games on this list and I have those achievements for them. Sorry, but I am not buying Joy Ride Turbo for only a chance to win a contest.

    Didn’t win, challenge sucks. :p

    But I posted a bit of feedback in the forum nobody uses.
