This is retarded. They should have split it into a ton of 400 ms point codes.

I thought it was 4000 at most in points when I read it on the 360 today.

No shit. Rather than shoot out some free DLC to tons of deserving people they're giving a shit-ton of it to 3 people total.

I'm with you. Why make 3 people unnecessarily happy instead of pleasing two hundred?

i thought 80k for one person was a ridiculous amount of points to give away too. I would've preferred to have them spread the whole 160k ms points to a few thousand people.

...Some of you seem to have a serious problem with math.

Going by the 1600 MS points = $20 scale, each point = 0.0125 dollars. (1.25 cents).

Thus:

80,000 Points = $1000
60,000 Points = $750
20,000 Points = $250

I agree, they should have split it up like with the Sprint Play and Win, but they're not giving away $10,000 in points.

I don't think I could spend $1000 worth of MS points unless they offered a bigger HDD

Go buy a bigger HDD. In all honesty, I could easily blow through 80,000 MS Points in a years time with just my 60 GB HDD. Yeah, it'll be a lot of DLC, but would I really have it all on my HDD at once? For example, I'll buy the Fable 2 DLC and beat it, but once I'm done with it I'm most likely never going to go back to it. Once I'm done with it I'll just delete it off my HDD. IF I want to go back to it I can just download it through my history.
