Destination Arcade

I still have my gf's US account saved on my harddrive so as soon as I get my Xbox working again I'll give this a look. I'm actually quite excited to see what they've done with it.

I tried it for about 10 minutes. I didn't like it.

I do all of my Xbox Live Marketplace browsing and purchasing on xbox.com, so I don't usually use the console interface anyways. Destination Arcade just seemed like another hoop to jump through in order to get the same info I get instantly on xbox.com.

I did appreciate the free Avatar items though. I name my dragon Oeohfppe.

Failed I tried it out and its pretty nifty, you can sort all xbla games by all diff types,price,genre,etc.,very visual so it takes a minute to load, but once it loads it seems to work seamlessly.Oh and I'm rockin da hoodie and da dragon, cute lil baby dwagon:)

Yeah. It's a 'time-locked' unlockable. Nothing specific you have to do, just browse/sort the Destination Arcade app for 5 minutes and it will unlock.

It's also possible that it unlocked and you didn't notice the pop-up telling you it unlocked. Check your Avatar customization screen's Avatar Awards (or maybe accessories?).

Maybe.

Some people say the dragon unlocks when you open "Magic: The Gathering" inside Destination Arcade.

I don't remember doing that to unlock my dragon, but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

I didn't open it inside arcade but I did like scroll by it while I was browsing, so maybe thats a possiblity dunno hmmm give it a go and see though:)

i think the dragon unlockable is completely random not timed, not linked to certain games. it'll unlock EVENTUALLY just keep at it!

Destination Arcade has Avatar Award.

You get a white hoody with xbox live on it for entering DA.

You get a Dragon Pet randomly for browsing around.

I GOT THE DRAGON WHOO WHOO!!
