Yeah it’s just OK for me, don’t see it getting played that often. I know Live was crawling last night. I bought 7 songs for Rock Band last night and it took forever to download them.

Just Dl’d it and played it for a bit, its not that good. Free is good and everything but it would have been MUCH better to just get a free 800MS points instead. :/

i tried REALLY hard to like this game, but i found it immediately boring, and endlessly repetitive. i even played coop, and i usually love coop games. smells like ass to me.

I will be getting it today for sure. I mean it would be silly not to since it’s free. I’ll definately try it again as I wasn’t super impressed with one play through on the demo. I’ll read through the help to understand it better. It’s a good looking game though. I’m sure it’s a good one.

It certainly wouldn’t surprise me either, but what M$ should have done is to give away a NEW arcade game. Therefore everyone gets compensation for the month of deplorable service we’ve had. Not a select few. Very poor decision on their part. Even when you’re the top console provider in the world, you can’t afford to let your customer service slide as this is where you build your real reputation and that’s where M$ fall down. Duke Nukem 3D for free would have been awesome!

I wouldn’t blame microsoft if they didn’t reimburse you guys who’ve already bought Undertow. Halo maps are free in the spring, are you going to ask for your Points back then? Small arms was dropped to half price. Why not ask for your 400 points back?

“ours”? a little possessive huh?

By: ManoDestra

ManoDestra — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 01:42:15 +0000

Trying reading MY post before responding in an inane fashion. I CALLED MS and they stated there’s no other alternative which includes reimbursement. I’m aggravated that they won’t follow through on their claims. That’s what I mean by shocking level of customer service.

Yeah but by saying screw you haters, you yourself become a “hater hater” so you are actually teling yourself to go screw yourself, jackass.

And ours is a million times better in comparison.

I tried it when it came out…. I didn’t think to much of it. But since we’re getting it for free…. I thought I’d try the trial again… and I gotta say I had a better experience with it this time. The graphics are nice, and there’s a bit more to it than I originally thought.
Now if they would just fix the DRM issues I’d really be happy. I’m on my 2nd Xbox… & can’t play 70 of my 82 arcade games unless I’m connected

Which is why our service is better.

Be warned that they SAID THEY WOULD REIMBURSE YOU…

Read the whole post before crying next time.

As I expected, I’m not too excited. I tried the demo, and much like my opinion of most XBLA games, I didn’t care for Undertow.

I might download it since it will be free, but I seriously doubt I’d ever play.

For those who like to tell others how to act and say “be happy”, please allow me to return the favor and say “piss off”! You can be happy. I will form my own opinion.

Not really, Nintendo and Sony give it away for free.

Yeah well you’re fired. You know I’m gay, it would be Nick Lachey not Jessica dumb ass.

I don’t have it, so I guess I get it, but to be honest, I thought the demo blew so I’m with those who would’ve rather had the 800 points.

By: Fetter

Fetter — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 19:23:41 +0000

I played the demo… it’s not bad. Gotta read morte on how to play… didn’t understand it really.

The game costs more than month of live. I can’t wait!

To be honest, this works for me. I’m quite happy that they’ve chosen this particular title, and that they were wise enough to recognize the problem (Xbox Live issues) in the first place.

Cheers!

Meh!
I was expecting a month free live for all these problems, not some cheaop xbla game.
Gone are the days when MS graciously sent out free games and controllers to early adopters of the xbox

Yeah I was playing PC for the most part, and didn’t yet buy undertow. So works for me. I’ve suffered enough anyway. I’m on my fourth or fifth 360, I kind of lost count.

Man I’m glad I just played Rock Band offline over the whole break. Didn’t notice Live was fucked until I saw it on websites. Gotta love RB.

Wow, I’d sure love to download this game if my Xbox hadn’t broken.

Mine too we played a ton of games over the holiday without interruption. Must have depended where you were located. I’ll take Undertow for free with no complaints. Screw you haters.

By: Worms

Worms — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 00:19:16 +0000

Good luck. How much is your attorney going to charge you to get you the $5 or so MS is only required to pay you? 1 month of service, that’s it.

I Europe it’s 60 euros per year which is more than 90 dollars. And yes my live service was that bad during the holidays… it was impossible to stay connected for more than a couple of minutes.

call them and tell them they’ll hook u hope
