It is free, and I seriously got all 200 points in about 30-45 minutes or less.

And then you decided to play some Yaris for good measure?

I actually had some fun with this one, unlike Yaris.

Give me more free arcade games like this and I'll never complain.

Fastest 200 points ever. I actually felt bad about spoofing the lone multiplayer achievement.

And, for the record, what's up with Yaris totally being pulled from the XBLM? Was Toyota's distribution deal time limited or something? I understand that I didn't miss much, but not being able to acquire it bugs me.

I got this and got all but one achievement in about 10 minutes at the most, I didn't realize the multiplayer was local until today(yeah, i'm not that bright).

I actually have fun playing Yaris. My friend Rob and I actually play it decently often.

I believe they had a one year deal.

Actually, yeah... Right after i got my 200 points, i went to play yaris to mine it for GP. Then i remembered how much yaris sucked.

Most of the Live Profiles I saw today had this game in their recent games with all 200 points, eheheheh.

Lies. Avitar is 5 times faster. You can pull all 1k in 5 minutes... including load times. Heck Fallout 3 PC can be done faster as well. But I digress.


Yaris had a 1 year window of availibility as listed on its old info screen. Past then, the game would be unavailable. Trust me, be glad you didn't get it. It is HORRIBLE.

Dash of Destructions cut scenes actually joke about being a game score booster.

Yaris is interesting that its COMPLETELY off of xbox live. Its not even in your download history if you had it. So if you have an HDD failure it will be lost to history. I still think there are worse games on the 360 though.

When you play it now, there isn't even an icon for it in your recently played list, just a blank space.

DoD's pretty fun, not something I'll probably play everyday but pretty good for an advertisement.

Now I feel kind of guilty for liking Yaris. I mean I didn't play it as anything more that a curiosity when it came out. But it reminded me a lot of the Sonic 2 ring stages. I wonder if I deleted it. o.O

SegaAges

Hahaha, at least I wasn't alone in being a person that beat DoD and then went for the GP in Yaris, and then stopepd playing because it got old super fast.

I keep forgetting I have my gamerscore in my sig so you guys can see everytime I boot up Barbie's horse adventure or hello kitty adventure island.

EDIT: and yes, I finally bought MM9.

Yeah, I thought that I could get some more quick ach points, but, uh, prolly not. I got way too many games to worry about just one game (I have only beaten one level of mm9, so I got some work to do).

So is Yaris going to become a collector's item now? I never see it in the wild, and now that it's not being made anymore, it's gotta fetch some dollars soon. USD FTW.

Umm Yaris will NEVER be found in the wild. Super rare!

It's got to end up in a swap meet somewhere. If it's as bad as everyone is claiming it to be, some poor sucker is gonna want to dump it not knowing what price it is fetching these days.

I'm trying to look for it on the online rarity guide, but I don't see it priced, so I don't really know if that's a good offer or you're trying to high ball me.

If it's a year old, it's still not 59.99 msrp, I can probably find it at a local swap meet for 19.99
loose.

Unless that is the price it fetches now, I simply do not see it on the guide or ebay.

Have you ever heard of XBLA? Also called XBox Live Arcade? If not, try to find some infos on it and then you might see the light...

Are you high?????

Its an XBLA game...it was NEVER available in stores only online as in an online download.

uh, arcade machines still fetch good prices (most).

The cabinets alone sometimes go for high value.

I have Yaris on my XBox, I'll sell it to you for $500 right now so you can have this zomg rare game.


Also, I think I just learned why Final Fantasy VII still brings $70 online... :rolleyes:

but seriously, I can't keep the stupidity up anymore. I had a lot of you at hello though.

let's get this topic back on track! I hate when you're playing the dinosaur and you have to go against the other dino. You scare the dorito trucks right into his greedy little mouth. It is really easy getting that 200gs though.

I wasn't even trolling. I started out making a corny little joke on the rarity of an xbox live arcade game. It was a little bit satire on the current state of collecting, a little bit biting political humor. It spiraled out of control after that. It was out of my hands at that point. Completely out of my hands.

It's a pretty cool game. I after like 15-25 minutes of the game I already unlocked all of the achievements.
