Cheers for that, shouldn't it be priced at £349 though? (maybe it's just a temp placeholder price?)

Exactly - that was the link I shared (just trying to encourage others to add their weight behind the one with the most votes on Xbox Feedback - here's the directly link: http://xbox.uservoice.com/forums/251647-gaming-achievements/suggestions/6028556-bring-back-1-vs-100 ... 3,500 votes and counting )

Had voted myself already, loved that game, the wife even enjoyed playing that :pac:

Same here. My wife still asks every now and then about when this is back on. Loved it.

(Even got to be the One and won some Microsoft Points )

So, as someone on Reddit highlighted Microsoft have really been focusing on features that are popular with the public. In fact, a lot of the top requests on Xbox Feedback are already on the way (most demands already fulfilled )

Lets see if we can use the system to get some thing we've wanted for a long time.

Bring back 1 v 100

And sky go!

Pretty sure Sky are working on that at the moment. It will be the same as the new Sky Go on 360 since July. No more free Sky Go on consoles if you have Sky. You either have to pay for Sky Go Extra or else have Multiroom with them to get the Sky Go Extra for free.

I am no longer interested in Sky Go since they started I charge for it on console

Works out alright if you have a friend with multiroom and all the channels like I do :P

Anyone know if there is likely to be any problems with using one credit card on two live accounts?

Not sure, but I very much doubt it. They don't really care where the money comes from, just that they're getting it.

No they haven't removed it anyway but the vault was acting dodgy for me. Games weren't loading in it when I was having a look earlier so maybe try again in a while :S

Same here I can play peggle and FIFA but not battlefield, keeps bring me to the store.

Thanks for contacting EA Customer Experience, my name is Michael. How may I assist you today?
you
hi
you
i bought ea access 2 days ago
you
i played bf4 yesterday
you
but today its asking me to purchase it , it wont let me play it
you
but it will let me play madden
Michael
I am sorry to know that you are having difficulties playing BF 4 from the Vault. I understand how you feel since you only wanted to play the game with others. Currently our Studio is communicating with Microsoft regarding this matter. I suggest you give them a little time while they find a resolution to this concern.
you
so this is a global issue and not just me ?
Michael
Yes, I have received multiple reports about it already. Rest assured that our Studio and Microsoft are doing all they can to get this resolved as fast as possible.
you
thats grand, thanks !

Yeah they also just posted on Facebook:

Does EA Access make anyone else more reluctant to actually buy an EA game now?

Normally I would get the latest Battlefield and FIFA on release day, and end up not playing them much after the first week (I'm not good at computer games, and dislike getting my ass handed to me second after second online). WIth the likelyhood that both these titles, and other EA titles will hit the vault eventually, I think I might skip buying them this year.

It would want to be a game I am massively hyped for, for me to buy it on release day now, i feel.

I will probably buy both (definitely buy fifa) and trade them in when in the vault.

Pinball FX2 is out now (might have to search store) and it's free with one table.

Not really my thing though.

Wondering if anyone can help. I'm trying to play a game of Madden online, we just can't get into a game with each other. When he invites me I get a grey box telling me that I've been invited to a game and return to the main menu to accept it. But I can never find where to accept it.
Any help would be appreciated.

If you hold down the guide button when the notification pops up it should take you to it else join party / invite party to game if possible, also it might be in notifications in the top left area of the dashboard.

Interesting enough I see UFC is on deals with gold and I was thinking of getting it until I stopped and said to myself I'll just wait until it's in the Vault.

It wouldn't stop me purchasing Battlefield when that comes out but other EA games that I think I'll like but won't need straight away

I got it now, but no its nothing like how to accept a game in any other game, why EA can't just use the Xbox live invite system I don't know.

Issues with live again today, had my achievement app snapped hit 100% for one in Crimson Dragon no pop :mad:

Check status on xbox.com and sure enough service alert for social and achievements. This is happening almost weekly now, surprised more of a stink isn't being kicked up

That doesn't matter, it's across the board, if it is on xbox. Com.. And yes it is happening way too much now!

Digital Download codes are apparently rolling out to stores. Microsoft are really on a roll with the improvements they're making.

See here.

Earned a load yesterday in Peggle 2 that didn't pop, some of them came up this morning but others still haven't. It is a little trivial but still annoying!

Loving the new additions;

mp3's & mkvs yes!!

Video playback has been spot on for any files I've tried so far, others I know mentioned crashes or stuttering, I didn't experience that myself.
