Add on Packs 1, 2 and 3 lost

[ATARI]

Hi. I originally purchased starter pack, then I purchased pack 1 then 2 and 3, giving a total of 10 pins, but a while ago when all the trouble with Crave was going on packs 1,2,3 disappeared leaving me with the original 4 pins. When I try to download them again it says You have already downloaded it before. Any one else lost the last three packs, 6 pins in total.

They were all taken off the marketplace.

Does this mean removed from my 360 also. I know I used to play them. I can understand taken of market place but to remove them from my 360 that's bad.

 

[Mark Miwurdz]

I'm not sure. They should be on the original hard drive where you first downloaded them.

Not there just the first 4 pins. Thanks

Have you changed your hard drive lately? Or is this the same HD you've had all along. You can't lose things off your HD unless someone did something to it. and even if that happened, you should be able to re-download it.

Just because something is taken off of the marketplace doesn't mean it's not possible to download them anymore - they should always have downloads available on the Xbox Live servers for people who had purchased the item to be able to redownload them.

Sounds like it's going to be an Xbox Live issue to work out. My suggestion is to find your purchase history on your Xbox 360 and see if the table packs are listed on there. If they aren't, then you'll need to work with Xbox to find out what happened. If they are on there, then you'll need to work with them to find out why you can't redownload them.

Thanks for reply's---- Still my original hard drive. Download history is still there to download them again, it looks as if it downloads them, the % bar jumps from 0% to 99% but there is still no sign of them. With them been taken off market place I don't think it will let me download them again

Take a look in the "Returning to Xbox 360" thread, it may (hopefully) catch the eye of someone at FarSight. Whether they can help is another story, FS has done their part dropping the ball regarding the 360 release.

If I'm not mistaken, since the hooks have been reset for all DLC with the upcoming re-launch of The Pinball Arcade on the Xbox 360, which includes updated versions of Table Packs 1, 2 and 3, the download hooks in the Download History may no longer be valid.

That is really messed up that you can't download them again, even from your download history. They have your money and you have nothing.

Not to speak for anyone else, but FS is not going to be able to help you most likely. There's a miniscule chance if you contact XBox support they may be able to advise something, but level 1 Xbox support is pretty clueless most of the time

Thanks for reply's, just got back from holiday in Egypt, give it another try today.

This is why I have such a beef with downloadable games. I'd rather have a physical product so I can enjoy my games for even longer. When I buy games, I only try to purchase those I intend to keep. I don't want some greedy and inept company to pull the plug on my game just because they can't make sound business decisions.

Sadly, companies seem to be straying from physical product in favor of lower production cost, and more money to be made from simple downloading.
Costs to consumers may be cheaper but there's no real ownership anymore.

Only buy digital when absolutely unavoidable. For instance, I have PS4 season 2 on disc.

Hi. Good news I've got them back. I had 4 files relating to TPA on my usb stick, I first tried copying them to hard drive this did not work so last attempt I moved them to hard drive and this worked. Cheers for all replys

I have it on rental from Boomerang. I'm returning it it soon as I have all tables on PS3 and Xbox One. Is it not readily available?

 

[Mark Miwurdz]

It's on sale at amazon uk.

Same issue. Was playing all 10 tables yesterday when waiting on the update (the four original plus three expansion packs). TPA just updated on my 360 and I now only see the four that come with the base game. The six that were purchased 2+ years ago are no longer accessible. No option to re-download or otherwise access these tables.

 

[Baron Rubik]

Someone helped me with the same issue.

Go find 'download history' in the top right menu tab on the dashboard.
Scroll through 2yrs worth of stuff and you'll find 3 downloads which are confirmed today to put you back to having all your pre update original tables.
