I don’t see a friends achievement notification to turn off. Only mine and I don’t want to do that. In Xbox notifications there is a “friends & broadcast” that I turned off, but that’s all I see for friends. There’s also a party & game” and “activity list”. Would those do it?

Ninja Gaiden 2 is free now. Any good? I remember loving the original on NES. Believe it was pretty hard. Of course 2D side scroller, but I think I beat it and enjoyed the hell out of. Can that be had on XO?

Do you mean this Xbox 360 game?

It's not free, it's included in Game Pass. There's a difference.

The original Ninja Gaiden, or the original Ninja Gaiden 2? There were 3 Ninja Gaiden games for NES, and the Ninja Gaiden Trilogy release for SNES. The original NES Ninja Gaiden game is available on the NES Classic, and on the Nintendo Switch as part of the Nintendo Switch Online service.

I'd love to know how many people have bought Castlevania 2 for that listed retail price.

When did they change the Xbox menus? Used to be games were sorted so nicely in alphabetically order, which it is now, but not separated by letter. Just one big box. Anyway to fix that? Also, easier to see what’s downloading in queue is gone. Thanks.

I have used them several times. They are reliable and fast with delivery
I don't understand what you are saying about Brazil vs US.

Oh, then don't buy it. Only buy US codes. They're very transparent on what works and what won't.

I am glad to see Sonic Generations on the list. I have always wanted that game, but I am too cheap to buy it.

for those wondering (and i know many were waiting with baited breathe), i did figure out how to sort by letter again, but i still don't like the new menus and such...

If I’m having trouble getting into a game, Halo: Master Chief Collection, (keeps freezing before main screen) will uninstalling and re-installing fix it? Just downloaded it and tried to get in, but freeze every time. I load another game, then go back and still freezes.

Can't hurt.
Also, do you have it installed on the built in hard drive, or an external?
For some reason, the game Agents of Mayhem hated being installed on my external drive. It crashed at the same point dozens of times. When I moved it to the internal, I had no problems.

An why would my external decrease in space by 4GB!? It should be less 100Gb after move. What’s going on here?

Not to encourage this thread as a tech support thread, but did you check system storage -> make more space? It's possible you moved the main game but not the add ons? I haven't played it in a while but I think you can pick and choose what campaigns you want to download so maybe it leaves it there even with the base game moved.
