    Hi, was over with my cousin in Manchester and was playing this live arcade game. Came home and cannot seem to download on Live, is it possible this is not available in Ireland?

    Cheers,

    Tony.

    ya, i was looking for that too because its meant to work with the Big button pad controllers, but i dont think it came out...

    It got fairly bad reviews anyways

    Yes thats it, you can use it with the big button pads. It's not too bad actually, a good party game.

    Strange that it is available in the UK and not Ireland. Normally games are relased in both countries, its not as if they need to translate or anything like that.

    it is in Ireland, was going to download it last week. Unless its been removed since then. UK and Ireland are classed as the same region by M/S. So if UK get it we get it.

    Hi all,

    This is a case where MS see UK and Ireland as separate (similar to Inside XBox when it first started on Live - it was UK only).

    Wits and Wagers only appears to be in a few specific regions (UK, US, Germany) and nowhere else. I think it's because they create local questions for those regions.

    If you go on the Marketplace web site, you can see the game here on the UK site - http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/games/media/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802584108a6/
    But if you try to spoof the address to the irish one, then it fails - http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-IE/games/media/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802584108a6/

    Also, if you try to add it to your download queue from the UK one, it'll say this is not available in your region.

    Hope that helps clarify...
