The only weapon that does any damage is the stunstick. Is there any way I can make them damage each other with the guns?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/294/anyone-interested-in-becoming-a-game-legend-mod Anyone interested in becoming a Game Legend mod? MrPhil 2010-04-16T17:06:01Z 2010-09-04T03:22:22Z <p>As I look forward to the possible move to Stack Exchange 2.0, I think it is only fair that some of you get first crack at being mods in the new community (if that's the direction things end up going.) Who would be interested?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/163/wii-dancemat-compatibility Wii Dancemat Compatibility PhilPursglove 2009-12-10T14:27:26Z 2010-09-03T00:22:22Z <p>If I buy a Wii game that has a dance mat e.g. Dance Dance Revolution, is the dance mat then compatible with other Wii dancing games e.g. Just Dance.</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/279/how-many-versions-of-the-playstation-3-are-there-and-what-is-the-difference-betw How many versions of the PlayStation 3 are there, and what is the difference between them? cowgod 2010-04-13T23:32:56Z 2010-09-02T04:22:22Z <p>The PlayStation 3 has been out for a long time now. I remember reading way back that some were compatible with PS2 games and some weren't. Some used hardware virtualization (basically they shoved the PS2 hardware into the PS3) and some used software emulation for backward compatibility.</p> <p>How many different PS3 versions are there and what is the difference between them all?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/273/how-do-i-make-a-hostile-npc-friendly-again-in-fallout-3 How do I make a hostile NPC friendly again in Fallout 3? pippo 2010-04-06T22:08:22Z 2010-08-31T22:56:29Z <p>I need to talk to an NPC who got hostile because I killed I went over the line he was protecting.</p> <p>Is there a way to make he friendly again?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/185/is-there-a-crossbow-in-assassins-creed Is there a crossbow in Assassin's Creed? cowgod 2010-01-04T13:37:59Z 2010-08-31T01:22:20Z <p>The intro video shows Altair with a crossbow on his back, yet I have not received one after completing the game. Is it hidden somewhere in the game, or was that just left in the video to tease us?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/183/is-there-a-point-in-collecting-all-the-flags-in-assassins-creed Is there a point in collecting all the flags in Assassin's Creed? cowgod 2010-01-04T04:21:44Z 2010-08-30T15:22:21Z <p>There are many collectable flags throughout the game of Assassin's Creed and every time one is collected, you get a progress indicator (e.g., 33 of 100). Is there any reason to collect these, other than bragging rights? I recall getting all available flags in one particular town and never saw any special reward or secret revealed.</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/239/does-anyone-know-if-and-where-a-demo-for-monaco-igf-2010-winner-is Does anyone know if and where a demo for Monaco, IGF 2010 winner, is? MrPhil 2010-03-13T21:03:58Z 2010-08-30T01:22:24Z <p>Monaco got Best Game Design and the overall Seamus McNally prize at the IGF this year (2010.) But, there is little on the interent about it, not even any videos, much less a demo.</p> <p>The only video I know of is: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFnc6Fdhs2k" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFnc6Fdhs2k</a></p> <p><strong>Update:</strong> I found the webpage: <a href="http://www.monacoismine.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.monacoismine.com/</a> which has links for Monaco to Twitter and Facebook.</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/261/cant-register-simcity-societies Can't register SimCity Societies Michael Itzoe 2010-03-24T21:02:07Z 2010-08-28T22:22:20Z <p>I just bought SimCity Societies, but when I try to register it, EA's page gives me a "server unavailable" page. EA still hosts mods and downloads for the game, but you have to register to download anything. Have they switched off their registration server? The game is only a couple years old and I know the game wasn't a big hit, but I can't image they would have shut it down already. I couldn't find anything on the EA or Tilted Mill forums, either.</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/298/can-i-fix-the-xbox-360-red-ring-of-death-myself Can I fix the Xbox 360 "Red Ring of Death" myself? cowgod 2010-04-22T20:55:32Z 2010-08-28T22:22:20Z <p>I've heard of kits that can fix your Xbox 360 if you happen to get the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_360_technical_problems#Three_flashing_red_lights" rel="nofollow">Red Ring of Death</a>.

If I don't own an Xbox 360, should I even care about this feature? I don't see any way to create an avatar on the <a href="http://www.xbox.com" rel="nofollow">official Xbox website</a>.</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/5/where-is-the-best-place-to-learn-strategies-for-company-of-heroes Where is the best place to learn strategies for Company of Heroes?

Grumbel 2010-06-19T23:39:49Z 2010-07-02T18:40:54Z <p>The Dpad on the old Xbox360 has well known issues. The Xbox360 Slim now comes with a redesigned controller. Did they use this redesign to also improve the Dpad and if so how?

MrPhil 2010-03-19T22:29:50Z 2010-07-02T18:09:41Z <p><a href="http://blog.stackexchange.com/post/398809276/beta-7-release-monday-tuesday" rel="nofollow">The free hosting ride Game Legend has been getting is coming to an end in a month or two :(</a> I was wondering if people had any ideas about how to try and pay the $129 a month. I'm so busy with my game that I don't have time to write a SE clone or some alternative like that. Traffic is steadily growing and I'm very happy for the site, but I need to figure out some plan going forward or I'll have to cut it loose.</p> <p><strong>Update</strong> I'm definitely committed to the site. So, I added a small banner ad. I hope it isn't too distracting. Let me know you thoughts.</p> <p><strong>Update 2</strong> <a href="http://blog.stackexchange.com/post/518474918/stack-exchange-2-0" rel="nofollow">The StackExchange people had a big announcement today.</a> While they aren't exactly shutdown us down, it puts me in a pickle. I have an email into them and we'll see what develops.</p> <p><strong>Update 3</strong> I see two options for us: A) Move to the new SO 2.0 community B) Take advantage of OSQA refugee plan which gives us another year to figure out a longer term solution. I think option A might be better for us but there are some problem areas. First, I've spent too much money and time to just hand it over for free without out some sort of compensation. Second, there is the issue of <a href="http://smartergamer.com/" rel="nofollow">Smarter Gamer</a>. <strong>What do you guys think?</strong></p> <p><strong>Update 4</strong> It is my desire to move into the Stack Exchange 2.0 community. Unfortunately, the Stack Exchange folks are still organizing themselves, so I don't have any details about how that is going to work. <strong>But, reassured, one way or another any questions or answer you contribute will live on!</strong> I haven't been active, simply because I'm in wait and see mode. Instead, I have been focusing all my energy into Iron Roads (a railroad sim game I'm developing.)</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/347/can-you-play-multiplayer-gameboy-advance-games-on-the-nintendo-ds Can you play multiplayer GameBoy Advance games on the Nintendo DS? cowgod 2010-06-16T13:32:30Z 2010-06-16T13:32:30Z <p>Is it possible to play games like Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure with friends on the Nintendo DS system? Are you able to use the wireless feature to play together with multiple Nintendo DS systems or do you have to use a link cable like on the GameBoy Advance?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/346/what-are-the-differences-between-super-mario-64-and-super-mario-64-ds What are the differences between Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS? cowgod 2010-06-16T13:30:00Z 2010-06-16T13:30:00Z <p>Nintendo re-released the classic Super Mario 64 from the Nintendo 64 system on the handheld Nintendo DS system.

Is there a compelling reason to own the game for both platforms?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/344/xbox360-updating-for-every-game xbox360 updating for every game TrickyM66 2010-06-09T04:21:31Z 2010-06-09T04:21:31Z <p>If I happen to put in an Xbox-360 game that I haven't played for over 2 weeks or so, I always get an update to the game. It disconnects me from live and restarts (Which I despise because it never reconnects to my group chat after). </p> <p>I have played at LAN parties and my Xbox seems to be the only one in the group updating the games. I update games so frequently its getting on my nerves and I know these game companies are not releasing new updates as frequent as I'm updating. Is there a memory catch deletion option I need to change in the Xbox settings?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/343/xbox-modern-warfare-2-online-stats xbox: Modern Warfare 2 online stats TrickyM66 2010-06-08T18:14:20Z 2010-06-08T18:14:20Z <p>Is there a website to view my Xbox-360 Modern Warfare 2 stats online?

Josh 2010-06-07T15:26:20Z 2010-06-07T18:02:15Z <p>I like to play <em>Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10</em> for the Nintendo Wii with friends. I normally play using the "Play Now" option so that my friends can join in. However every time I finish a game, either 9 holes or 18, the reports at the end always say I earned no money and no skill points. How do you earn money with two players in <em>Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10</em>? Do you just have to play Career mode? If so, the why is the report shown at the end of "Play Now"?</p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/342/how-do-you-beat-rundas-in-metroid-prime-3-corruption How do you beat Rundas in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption?

It seems like only Phazon attacks hurt him but I don't have enough energy tanks to both enter Hypermode and also maintain enough health to avoid dying against his giant ice shard attack... </p> http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/340/shattered-horizon-running-slow Shattered Horizon running slow.
