    Hey. I have 2100 points, more than enough to buy this, but I'm getting a generic error when I try to purchase it. I've tried buying it both from Xbox.com and from the console itself, but nothing seems to be working. Any idea on what this problem could be and how to fix it? I've been so unbelievably excited for this game for ages.

    Its because we are all going apeshit trying to get it right away, it will work soon...

    EDIT: Actually this is kinda weird, I used the backdoor website way of getting games an hour early a few times now. Did it with Turtles RS and Perfect Dark, but with both of those I was able to purchase right away. Maybe they are finally stopping us from jumping the gun on new releases? Seems weird that they would stop us from sneaking money into their pockets, lol...

    Same thing. I thought maybe my points were invalid, so I bought that shitty Ghostbusters game to make sure, and they weren't. So yeah I guess too many people are trying to purchase it right now. Just have to wait it out.

    XBOX Live seems to be saying that some may be seeing service issues right now. So, I'm guessing you may just be one of those affected. Try again later and see if it works. :)

    Alright, good. As long as it is for everyone and not just for me. I just bought a new Xbox yesterday as my last one was stolen, so I thought there might be a problem with it or something. Cheers for the clarification.

    after watching the quicklook it doesn't look very good. There are only a couple of levels I care about or even remember. Also the new music is shit.

    Nope. Still not working. Has anybody tried downloading the trial and then unlocking the main game from the main menu or something?

    Yep, it's kinda fucked. It's weird because the game wasn't up and advertised on the dashboard when I woke up about an hour ago, but I found it on Xbox.com, which allowed me to DL the tria but not purchase it. Now all the Summer of Arcade adage is up on the dashboard and you can download the trial, but you can't actually buy the game, which is...odd.

    You won't have this problem on PSN (but you would wait a day to download it)
