[quote name='crazedimp321']Hmm I participated in the Xbox Preview update but don't see an email from them yet.[/QUOTE]

you can probably just log in like a couple of us have and claim your key. I got the email literally 2 minutes ago and redeemed for my code before I got the email.
 
I didn't get an e-mail, but I went to the Connect site & checked and I was able to get a code.

I knew this looked familiar. Took me awhile to remember it was the pre-order bonus for the Halo Reach DLC.

It's a nice little bonus, though I kind of wish it was exclusive like with other betas. Oh well, I'm still happy.
 
[quote name='bfett9']if anyone does not want their helmet willing to trade a 48 hour live code for their helmet code![/QUOTE]

That is a shitty trade right there.
 
[quote name='AlphaPanda']That is a shitty trade right there.[/QUOTE]

Holy shit, these codes are going for around $40 on eBay. Wish I didn't use mine now.. oh well.
 
[quote name='AlphaPanda']That is a shitty trade right there.[/QUOTE]

Hmmmm $50 on ebay or a 48hr code.... its hard to choose! :lol:
 
[quote name='Zekolot']Does the code expire on June 10th does that just mean you are no longer able to access the site to get the code.[/QUOTE]

Thats just the last date you can request the code
 
If you had the avatar flaming helmet from preordering the first map pack at Gamestop than this is the same exact helmet. I double checked by going into my avatar setup and it does say "Mark V Flaming Helmet," so now I have an extra. It looks like these are going for $15-20 on ebay now. I just put mine up for $10, just to try to get something out of an extra code. Basically getting the cost of that first map pack back.
 
Thanks much, OP!

For those that redeemed the code, did you do it via the xbox.com site or through the console dash? For some reason the code I entered into the site didn't take and I'm not near my console at the moment to check it out. If it won't take either way when I get home in an hour, I may have to call customer service to figure things out.
 
Should I sell my code or use it?

Edit: Actually, not worth selling. I checked eBay and the code that's worth 50 bucks is the in-game flaming helmet not the Avatar helmet we received codes for.

Actually, until an hour or so ago, the only avatar helmets listed were at about $40 at the lowest. Now that everyone is getting them from this, more are listed. Give it a week or two and the price will go back up I'm sure.

[quote name='Glowin Smurff']Nobody noticed it says not to give out the code?


thanks for posting this as for some reason the damn emails from the connect stuff never show up in my mailbox.[/QUOTE]

Like anyone ever obeys that shit. Lets be honest here... if we all listened to ToS and such, 99% of CAG would be gone.

I would think that this would mostly refer to actual software, instead of just an avatar item.
 
[quote name='ViperEvilGames']i dont see it on the site i log in but no key on left just see where it say bug.do i have to download something[/QUOTE]

Did you use this link that was provided in the first post https://connect.microsoft.com/XboxLIVEUpdate/productkey/availableproductkeys.aspx?

If you did, do you see Return to Product Keys (click that) or do you see a link that says Product Keys on the left it should under XBOX Live Update Home & Preview Update links? If you do click the Product Keys link.
