Give it time Force - I saw your score was **** and wondered what gave -online co-op play is fantastic and once you suss the combos and stuff it's great fun.

Undertow has been given a release date of 21st November (guess that means 28th for Sensi). Personally looking forward to this underwater shooter quite a lot!

Give it time Force

will give it another go this evening for sure... see if it changes my mind about it..

Aww man, I just did enough to get an achievement on Exit (5000 points for the first five situations) and nothing happened. Achievement locked. That took pissing ages, too.

Did you find any more info on this? It seems it does happen to everyone, but I'm a bit worried that to make it work you have to get your 5000 points on those first 50 levels without playing any others. I already played some situation 6 levels before 100%ing the first 50. Surely they wouldn't make it impossible for you to get an achievement if you "missed your chance"??

Could be a job for Mr Patch?

So when's the next dashboard update then?

I'm not sure if that's the case or not. When I did it, I did the first 50 levels and then went back to get 100 points on earlier levels so I didn't have 5000 points when I cleared stage 50 at first, and I wondered if that was the problem but it still doesn't look like anyone's got the achievement at all, though people do have the 10000 points one. Who knows. Maybe it'll fix itself when the new levels come out. It's tempting to erase my save and go for the 5000 by the end of level 50 in order, but I dunno if that'll screw up the leaderboards.

[stainboy]

Yeah, I'd hate to go back and do them all over again. When i went back to earlier levels I'd actually forgotten how to complete some of them! So now I go back right after finishing each one.

Word Puzzle and Switchball this week on Arcade.

Word Puzzle sounds ridiculous. Wordsearches with bombs? Whatever. Switchball looks interesting though

[ChrisF]

Like the look of Switchball!

[chopemon]

Word Puzzle is pretty good fun. If I didn't have so much to play I'd buy it.

[RuBiQ]

might have to purchase some points, i have 700 sat there but everything recently is 800 points..

Wheres the decent 400 point games?

[Yoshimax]

Damn I've got 480 that wordhunt thing can't be 800 surely ?

It's a week for trialling both demos for sure.
