Wow! 3 LIVE enabled games in the span of a few days?

Total Conquest (WP + W8), Asphalt Overdrive (WP), and Angry Birds Stella (?) also getting achievements soon. Don't think Stella is out yet for either.

Holy crap. All these games are too much! It's happening at a good time for me though...I just quit Clash of Clans so that I can start the Age of Empires game (btw do we have a CAG alliance going?) without having to balance time between both. I was really really really committed to Clash of Clans so I had to stop that. Now I can commit my time to these WP games :D/ If you know about Clash of Clans and how much raiding time it took at town hall 8, then you know I freed up a good deal of time.

I find it very shocking (and disappointing) that the Win8 & WP versions of World at Arms do not share save files. I don't see many people willing to play the whole thing twice.

You're coming up on 100k GS there :D/

You logged into Facebook on each? I thought they did share saves.

No. I didn't know they do it based on Facebook login. What's the point of having a Gameloft login then? Seems kinda silly.

The Gameloft login is a relic from the olden days, and something they've moved away from. Gameloft titles that support cloud saves mostly use Facebook to do it. Order & Chaos Online gives you the choice of either Xbox Live or Facebook (not both at once) for saves.

Even if you use facebook for login it still doesn't save your data cross platform with IOS and android right? Different game servers? Because that would be cool if it did.

 
There is a WP & Win8 holiday Gameloft sale going on. Nothing exciting, and I am too lazy to list the games.

It's the usual suspects and the exact same Gameloft sale they do every other month. We should just do a copy and paste at this point. I own some of them so I can't see the prices, but it's Amazing Spider-Man, Assassins Creed, Uno, and maybe some others.

Shockingly, Let's Golf 2 is not part of the sale.

Actually Dark Knight is not on sale.

Sale: Assassin's Creed, Spiderman, Uno, Asphalt 7, Shark Dash.

 
I hate fucking Gameloft and their fucking retarded games. I spent the whole day playing World at Arms on my WP today. Kicked a lot of ass and more importantly got some subs from various rewards. I log into my PC this evening and the save is from the previous day. So I log back into my WP and it downloads the damn PC save. So all my progress, money and subs are gone.

 
Had no XBL games pinned (only games I play weekly) at beginning of the year. Now at over 10.

Little afraid of what will happen with W10 if it gets more support. I'll need more space.
 
Can the gold in 'Secrets and Treasures: Lost Cities' even be used anymore since the last update? Before you could buy power ups and extra shots before a level with gold, but now the only option left is to buy them with diamonds. If the devs removed it, that's pretty shady.

Also, how the heck do you beat level 134 (the one where you have to roll two boulders uphill)? Can't figure it out and there's no videos from when I searched.

 
It baffles me how Secret and Treasure got so many updates and they didn't think to add a way to exit the game conveniently. I have to hold down the back button and shut down the app in order to exit it every time.

 
Looking at the screenshots, Total Conquest pretty much looks exactly like AOE: Castle Siege. That pretty much what it is? I would download it, but I'm getting the "There is a problem with your Microsoft account" error on my phone. I'll try my surface later because it usually still works when that happens.

Yeah it's basically another Clash of Clans type of game. Start your village, upgrade it, raid others, etc

 
Total Conquest glitch(?) on Windows Phone finishing some buildings instantly and full gold/food harvestable every 2 seconds.

EDIT: Might be fixed now.

EDIT2: Joined a new legion. Several members were reporting having the glitch happen to them today.

Aww, I think NBA Jam is fantastic other than the stupidly grindy Achievements.

From the 2 minutes I played I don't care much for the control scheme. Also, I hate the cheap AI from the XBLA title. I am assuming the WP version has similar issues.

 
The WP version is way easier than the XBLA game, but it still has some rubber-banding. Still, I never once lost a game out of like 90 games. I think there are two control schemes, but I forget.

 
The WP NBA Jam rubber band AI is much less frustrating than any other version if you have it on the easiest difficulty. The AI only goes into super cheat mode if you're up by over 20 points rather than just a few. If you're playing on the lowest game time which you should always do, you'll never be ahead by as much to make the AI go berserk.

The full achievement grind is crazy though and takes upwards of 40 hours of active playtime.

Disney Fairies is surprisingly decent for what it is: a hidden item / simple puzzle game for children. I didn't mind playing it to finish up all the achievements. I got it when the Season Pass was $10, but I hear it is more expensive now.

 
Thanks to all the positive talk about the wp8 version of NBA jam I may pick it up.  The severe rubberbanding in that series always kills the fun with frustration for me.

On Win8, Despicable Me and Asphalt 8 finally updated this morning to include Xbox live capability.
