Really cracking arcade racer :D I played this for the first time back when Blackpool's proper arcades were still surviving. I think it's one of the most played on my mame cab. The sequel is good too. I don't care for the OTT "Evolution" model which adds wheelies etc. but it's good for a laugh. It wa...

Article on the subject here - http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-12-09-new-xbox-360-dashboard-an-advertisers-dream I can't be the only one who researches the games online then just finds them directly via the marketplace if I'm interested. Browsing games via a console/control pad is never going ...

My confirmation email came through at 12:30ish. Looks like you missed out by an hour or so

Aye. Having checked when I tweeted about receiving it, it seems it took a bit longer than I remember to arrive. It took just over a week. https://twitter.com/#!/Edwards80/media/slideshow?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftwitpic.com%2F7peahs You would think that their system can stop accepting orders if stock runs o...

That's disappointing.

I ordered using the same deal and mine arrived a few days later for £5 including delivery. Might be worth giving them a ring and asking about it - the game has disappeared from their page now though so they probably just ran out of stock.

Why are people spending more then a few seconds on the dashboard? I think the navigation through the marketplace has been improved and nothing is hard to find. Not a bad update at all - but one that I will mostly ignore as I will be playing games rather than looking at squares with pictures in them :)

The "annually" secret santa is definitely not explained fully and comprehensively here http://www.retrogamer.net/forum/viewtop ... =6&t=31714

The "Bi-Centenially" forum facepalm happened at about 4:25pm today.

Had my first chance to play this again after the patch was released. Targetting is much improved and I saw no frame rate drops at all. I'm making slow progress (only up to the Darkroot forest) but still loving the game. Need to stop being a big girl and running away each time I run into an enemy I h...

Perhaps just RG in brackets after the name. If you put secret santa then it increases the likelyhood of someone thinking it has something valuable in it and nabbing it - as unlikely as it is!

That John Smith chap is going to be extremely upset about having his details shared on the net

Sent Cheers!

Looks like we're getting a new Dizzy game!

Curious to see what they do with it.

I'm definitely up for it again this year. As a result of last years, I was eating liquorice and building Mecano on Christmas day. What's not to like??

Immediate agreement with that . . but then I remembered that most of the times I die, it's against stuff I have been killing a lot of without trouble, so I am my own most annoying enemy

Love the game though!

Happy Birthday Sir! Enjoy!

Pressing the button REALLY hard also made you go faster.
