Yep it's free - I spotted this on the dash just now.

It's mindless button bashing fun - might be quite good on live

No refunds

Local MP only. Unless I've missed something hugely obvious...

Re: Doritos dinosaur game- is it free?

If you can't 100% this you can't 100% any XBLA game released to date.

I one day aim to get the last cheevo from Galaga, that will leave me with 3 x 100% XBLA games.


I personally thought the game was rather good. It was deliberately generous with the cheevos, it even joked about that on the Victory screen. Probably the best way to get people to play it.

Shoot all enemies in a bonus stage? Took me about an hour, if you use the first bonus stage, you can learn the patterns quite easily.


RE DoD:
I thought it was OK. Not bad for a free game.
