Xenolith666 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) My first guide.. so might not be good at this.. so bear with me! Connect 4x4 Overview: - Estimated achievement difficulty: 1/10 - Offline: 7 (150 http://live.xbox.com/xweb/lib/images/G_Icon_External.gif) - Online: 0 - Approximate amount of time to 200 http://live.xbox.com/xweb/lib/images/G_Icon_External.gif: 1 - 2 hours - Minimum number of playthroughs needed: Multiple games - Number of achievements that can be missed: None - Glitched achievements: No - Extra Notes: Beneficial to have 4 controllers - Achievement Trading Thread: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=135551 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/UPsuORQ=.jpg Power Player (20G): Use all the Power Squares in Connect 4X4 Remix There has been alot of confusion on this one.. here's the details! You need to get one of each of the 7 power squares in one game of Connect 4x4 Remix! It's not all the power squares on the board as some have thought. I was commonly missing the Green spaceship. Power Squares: Teleport (Blue Arrow) Points 5 Points 10 Bonus Turn (Single Gold Star) Detonate (Bomb) Star Cluster (showers the board with your color chips) Magnet (Green Spaceship) This can easily be attempted with 4 controllers. Otherwise I suggest the achievement trading thread. Set the game to Remix, 5 minutes in length should be plenty of time, and just get 1 of each of the above power squares. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/UPrOwYc=.jpg Red Leader (20G): Win a game in all modes of Connect 4X4 using red chips only. Simply win a game of Normal and Remix Connect 4x4. If you are player 1 than you will always be the red chips. Also easily done with 4 controllers to avoid the hassle of the AI. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/UPzYwQo=.jpg Fourmost (30G): Win 20 games of Connect 4X4 in any game mode Just win 20 games of Connect 4x4, doesn't matter if it's Original or Remix. Also best done with the 4 controller method. Otherwise visit the achievement trading thread. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/UPkPMKE=.jpg Spoilsport (25G): Block a Connect 4 fifteen times in any game mode in Connect 4x4 This will probably come naturally with playing for 20 wins. Once an opponent gets 3 chips in a row, block the Connect 4 with your chip. Better done in Original mode, and also best done with the 4 controller method while racking up 20 wins. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/UPjvyDI=.jpg Smarter than the Machine (20G): Outsmart the AI player in Original Connect 4X4 single player The only suggestion is to set the AI difficulty to "Novice" to get the win. And you're playing against 3 AI players instead of one. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/UP8ZMCw=.jpg Block Around the Clock (20G): Win a game with a blocker in Original Connect 4X4 only Best done against the Novice AI or with 4 controllers. You need to block their Connect 4x4 by pressing "Y" (your chip will change into a blocker chip) and win the match by scoring a Connect 4x4. I personally used 4 controllers and had player 2 set 3 in a row on the left going towards the center, while I set chips on the right towards the center. The other two players I just stacked on top and out of the way. When there were 3 chips on either side, I pressed "Y", dropped the blocker and got the win by blocking player 2's chips. Secret Achievement http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/s4.jpg 4x4 in 44 (15G): Made a Connect 4 in under 44 seconds in any game mode Again, check the achievement trading thread, but easiest done with 4 controllers. Just drop opponent chips out of the way and set yours up in a line in less than 44 seconds. Done! Anyway.. that's the guide.. hope this provides some clarity for everyone! Enjoy.

c88 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Thanks for the guide. I only have 4x4 in 44 and Block Around the Clock to complete. Now, I have an idea on how to tackle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clueless Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) FYI, Soilsport is cumulative and counts blocks across all game types, even custom games. I'm unsure as to whether it's a normal chip, or blocking chip that it counts. It unlocked while I was placing a blocking chip down.

spectreon Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Dumb question and I'm sure the answer is yes... But would you be able to use Guitar Hero controllers to have 4 controllers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenolith666 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 Dumb question and I'm sure the answer is yes... But would you be able to use Guitar Hero controllers to have 4 controllers? I'm assuming yes. I've used the wired guitar for a few different things.. even on Gears of War 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectreon Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 It worked just fine (using guitars)... the only problem is with no analog you cant select where to use power ups, but you shouldnt be really using these for that .anyways...

Dany1981Mtl Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/985/UP8ZMCw=.jpg Block Around the Clock (20G): Win a game with a blocker in Original Connect 4X4 only Best done against the Novice AI or with 4 controllers. You need to block their Connect 4x4 by pressing "Y" (your chip will change into a blocker chip) and win the match by scoring a Connect 4x4. I personally used 4 controllers and had player 2 set 3 in a row on the left going towards the center, while I set chips on the right towards the center. The other two players I just stacked on top and out of the way. When there were 3 chips on either side, I pressed "Y", dropped the blocker and got the win by blocking player 2's chips. Some clarification: You don't have to block their Connect 4x4 with a blocker and win the match by scoring a Connect 4x4 at the same time, you can simply win the match by scoring a Connect 4x4 with a blocker chip. That's how i got the achievement, otherwise it's very hard to do it without 4 controllers. I got the achievement with 2 controllers (with 2 Novice AI's). I put 3 red chips next to each other (it doesn't matter wich one, plain/full one or the ring stylish one) either horizontal, vertical or diagonal then used the red blocker chip to make/complete the Connect 4x4 (of course, the AI must not block your 3 chips, the space next to the 3 chips must be empty), so it's all random. If you see that there is a free space next to your 3 chips, put quickly a red blocker chip, you will win the game and get the achievement too.
