I was confused by that, too. The final list just says "confirmed" and nothing else like the green list, whereas the red list says "confirmed as ineligible"

Edited the OP to hopefully make it less confusing

If not, I might make a new thread myself in the rewards forum.

Oops, I included "Dead Block" in the upper section? Sorry about that.

Also didn't think saying "confirmed as ineligible" was confusing, since that essentially means that Xbox Rewards Support has specifically said they're not eligible.

Oh well, hope the list is still helping folks out!

Added a 3rd category for items where Xbox Rewards Support talks about the purchase, but don't give a specific answer one way or the other. One example of this is the "EA Sports Season Ticket", where the app is free ... but the points you spend are via in-app purchases, which Support says they can't track.

Got Pinball Arcade and the Kinect Sports Season 2 DLC (season pass) respectively. I'll check later today if I get those pending points.

Does Wrestlefest count toward the promo, and will it actually be out on time? I am guessing the answer is NO since the other WWE games don't count, since it's "sports entertainment" and not simply "sports".

go to the rewards forum and ask. and do it ASAP. the rewards team replies semi-quickly. i got my reply to Kinect Sports Season 2 in a couple of days.

I really don't get why Joy Ride Turbo counts as sports but Hydro Thunder Hurricane doesn't seem to. I missed the sales they've had and would pick it up today if it was.

because a lot of people think car racing is a sport (IndyCar, NASCAR, F1, etc.). boat racing... not so much.

don't shoot the messenger. I don't think car racing is a sport either. it's someone who's better at turning a wheel and controlling pedals than another person.

but yeah, some weird choices. Pinball! FTW!

alright, I'm done for this reward.

I picked up a couple of pinball packs for Pinball Arcade for 800 points. I picked up Kinect Sports Season Two Basketball challenge for 200 points. And then I picked up Tecmo Bowl Throwback for 800 because it's fun, simple, and has never been on sale.

now gimme back the 240!!! :p

Add Fight Night Champion to the list. On sale as of today for 1600 points, not sure for how long.

I've bought 3 of the Pinball Hall of Fame DLC packs (newest one Monster Bash/Gorgar came out on Tuesday people!!), that's 1200 points right there so if I get the Pinball FX2 Marvel Avengers DLC 4 pack of tables at 800 points I'm all set then?

Still hard to believe these are considered "sports games" but I'll take the points!

yep, the pinball tables count. i wish i had the 3 pinball arcade packs count for me for 1200. but I was so excited to get the first pack, I bought it at 11:50 pm July 31. then I found out about the august promotion...

Picked up Golf: Tee It Up! and 3D Ultra Minigolf to round out my 1600msp (also bought MLB Bobblehead Pros earlier in the month)

Added the following to our list, in this last-minute rush to assist folks in the forums:

• Burnout Paradise
• Burnout Revenge
• Fight Night CHAMPION
• Madden NFL 12 GoD (but not the Ultimate Team in-app purchase)
• Madden NFL 10's Ultimate Team DLC

And these titles didn't meet the bar:

• Split Second ... Cornelius rolls his eyes from Rewards' ignorance
• COD Black Ops' Rezurrection map ... Cornelius is rolling on the floor laughing out loud

Are you guys seeing your points pending yet? When should I see my points as pending? Ive read within 96 hrs and at the end of the month. I bought SSX Mt eddie and THPS a week ago and dont see anything yet. Im hoping they show after the month ends.

Really stupid question here, but do any and ALL pinball fx2 tables or packs count? In the list on page one it only lists specific ones. Thanks

well, i'm not the one to be asked the question as I don't work for the rewards department.

it's too late now but the question should be asked in the official rewards forum. usually they reply within a couple of days at most.

now that you just have a few hours left, it's up to you to take the gamble. If I was making the bet, I would assume it's any and all of the FX2 tables as being part of the deal.

Thats what i assumed as well. Part of me just wants to run wild and buy a ton of fx2 tables, but just to be on the safe side, i think i am going to buy nfl blitz for 1200 then do what i can using the tables ONLY listed on this thread to buy a table to make up the rest of the 1600.

It's probably too late to try for the promotion. Their months usually change over based on GMT or UTC, which rolled over to September a couple hours ago.
