Games That Require Live To Save
« on: March 23, 2012, 08:43:00 AM »

So, I've been having some issues lately.
I have an RGH xbox with Kinect.

Now, games like Zumba Fitness Rush and You Shape Fitness Evolve 2012 for some reason require you to log into Xbox Live in order to be able to save your game.

Needless to say, as my xbox is RGH, I don't log into Live.
Anyone familiar with this issue and know how to perhaps get around this?

Cheers.

are you sure about this?

that would exclude all users who don't have live.. and, at least imho, would be a failed strategy.

I've tried a gazillion times actually, but no go.

When you start the game, it asks you to log into your gaming profile. When I try logging in to my normal profile, it tells me that it wasn't able to login to Xbox Live and therefore I won't be able to save my progress... which is exactly what happens.

And yes.. I also think this is a somewhat retarded strategy.

/me wonders if your profile is actually a live profile and that's the failure.  

i think it's a configuration issue tbh; i don't have those games myself, but i wonder if it's a metro-created profile issue.

OK.. I've been able to find a few other forums discussing this issue:

http://forums.ubi.co...Xbox-Live/page2

It would seem that a number of people are having this issue.
A good workaround apparently is to setup your Kinect ID.
I did that... works like a charm biggrin.gif
