Post subject: [XBLA] Weird Frogger multiple accounts problem
Archived from groups: uk>games>video>misc (more info?)

Is anyone else having problems with playing Frogger on their 360 with a
different account? When one of my kids sign in with their own profile and
select arcade mode it brings up the sign-in screen. They select their own
account, go back to arcade mode and end up with the sign-in screen yet again.

My initial thought was that perhaps this is the first XBLA game locked to
just one profile, but if that was the case then wouldn't it just work as a
demo instead when used with a different account?

I have this problem if I'm not connected to Live.

I've just tested this with my son and he does appear to be connected. Every
other XBLA game we have works fine and I see which one he is playing from
looking at my friends list. When he plays Frogger however the site says he
is on the dashboard.

Hmmm. I've deleted Frogger and downloaded it again and I still have the same
problem. Galaga however works perfectly with all accounts.

Oooh - forgot it was Wednesday. How much is Galaga?

400 points. The thing is though that given the time it has taken to appear
they have added nothing to it. No co-op mode, no versus mode, no enhanced
graphics (although like Frogger I'd probably prefer the original graphics).
From the quick blast I've had it seems to be a very lazy release indeed.

I just hope more effort has been put into Pacman.

I'll probably be downloading it when I get home.

Oh well. At least I managed to be top of my friends leaderboard for a few
hours. Smile

Except I'm rubbish at it.

And I don't even like it that much.

Having the points in my account and seeing the leaderboards tipped me
over the edge into buying it when I probably should have just played the
demo.
