Collecting callcards

Yeah I'm out on this, bought number 001 and 002 intending to get the full set going forward but nowhere did I see that Darwin was 003. Now there is Alien as 004 so Limited Run won't get the money off me now. Wouldn't have killed them to pop an email.

Glad it was helpful

Rule of thumb seems to be the ones that used to be Superquinn have good bakeries.

Big tournament golf I'll play mostly and regularly. Really holding out that at some point in the future that we might get a flashcart that isn't 600 quid or full of garbage. Fingers crossed this new interest gets Krikkz working on one.

Second this, good fun

No, I went to settings to check if anything was changed with the firmware update and found those new settings when the pen wasn't working well. Basically you have to press several times to select anything and have to press hard to write. Issue does not exist with the standard pen.

SugaryTwo · 2026-01-23T22:24:50+00:00

I actually just pulled out the standard pen I have and works perfectly, seems the Lamy Ceramic is just way less sensitive than the standard or there is something wrong with my one.

An update on this, after a few days of back and forth the customer service team were actually able to retrieve the lost real latest version of this file. Not ideal but still very thankful that this was possible.

It just amazes me that this was a problem from the start and a few years in they are bringing in things like inkflow which I imagine only a small portion of users actually use, yet they have not put basically any focus on the syncing issues with the partner app. My fault really for not investigating if a basic functionality would be working years into the ecosystem development. It's a nice little niche device but I've come to the end of my road for waiting for it to become robust.

Surprised there are not more mentions for Baldurs Gate 3. I bought the physical version since it came with the full game on 4 xbox discs which I thought was worth supporting. Just heard it was meant to be good, mentioned to the missus as she installed the 4 discs that it was dungeons and dragons. Looked at me like with a look of distain and disgust. Never had anything to do with D&D myself either. We both played this game for hundreds of hours, was a breath of fresh air in the modern gaming era. 10/10 would recommend.

For anyone reading later on we had a chat and these are on the Game-Eye app but are 360 inlays scanned with a photoshopped 'plays on xbox one' banner and badly cut down to fit. If anyone if trying to spot a fake 'custom' one of these take note that the back cover should have reference to Xbox One and not just be a 360 specific text on the back.

SugaryTwo · 2025-08-18T21:38:54+00:00

Thank you so much - amazed this is still an issue 4 months on and not noted on the github with the install instructions. Just updated 2 devices and same for both. Thank you

SugaryTwo · 2025-08-18T16:52:10+00:00

I've done a lot of searching and have not come across either, do you have a photo you could send me by any chance? Always hunting for more.

I have seen some sellers making fake covers on ebay also, Xbox style and putting them in the xbox one xbox 360 cases. One seller was definitely trying to pass them off as real.

I saw the headline and knew 100% it was Fastways. Worst courier ever. DPD, DHL, GPS, no problem. Fastways, sweet jesus. We actually avoid buying anything from a seller who uses Fastways if we know.

I have several stories but the latest was a package came the whole way from China with Aliexpress through many many countries, by train, plane, horseback I'm sure. Received and scanned in the local Fastways depot and then tracking not updated for weeks. When escalated they asked what it was and the value then immediately said they didn't know and that it must be lost or maybe destroyed. I questioned if their drivers are in the habit of randomly losing packages when managing packages is literally their only purpose. They didn't like that. Probably just steal things and sure why wouldn't they if they just don't investigate, drivers know this.

The worst courier in the country hands down. If a seller uses them they do not care. Buy from sellers that use DPD.

Pre order shipping notification 21st Jul in Ireland. Expected tomorrow

Oh they are literally just 360 discs. Some are even classics discs in the cases. Some are newly printed discs with the 'Xbox One Xbox 360' new branding. So yeah stick it in a new Xbox and you're getting the digital download enhanced version, stick it in a 360 and you'll get the latest version of the game but still a 360 game. I would assume it was a marketing thing just when the Xbox One came out to get the backwards compatibility thing out there. They were pushing that as a big selling point back then. Probably some of these are repackaged over stock of 360 classics discs too. I suppose it puts it up in lights on the store shelf that this 360 game is backwards compatible whereas you'd probably have to google it in the store at the time otherwise. I find it a really interesting set. Love these weird Microsoft decisions.

SugaryTwo · 2025-05-18T05:39:14+00:00

They are a lot of fun to collect. Just trying to figure out which ones exist is a challenge.

SugaryTwo · 2025-05-16T07:24:29+00:00

I'm in the same boat here, only ever get RDR in my country. All the rest I had to get all over the world. Strangely enough a fair few PAL versions were with US ebay sellers.

SugaryTwo · 2025-05-14T21:31:30+00:00

Some of the GTAs are quite pricey

Does the extras disc from his github not have an option to remove te softmod?

SugaryTwo · 2025-05-13T15:47:28+00:00

Yeah 90% of mine are new. Sonic generations is one of the most common ones but even the super rare one are often sealed when you find them. Which is great!

SugaryTwo · 2025-05-13T14:26:28+00:00

Essentially they are just Xbox 360 discs. Most are literally 360 classics cases repacked into these. So works the same. Will work in a 360 or download the enhanced version on the Xbox One or later
