7/2 - 7/8 ... Ultimate Games Persistent Sales:

* =  Want to Buy Games On Demand Using Microsoft Points? [customspoiler="GonD with MSP"]
Often overlooked, GoD are by default displayed in dollars both on Xbox.com as well as on the console, but on the very-first confirmation screen of the download process is the option to use Microsoft Points in place of real-world currency.

Through the console, after first selecting to download a GoD you are greeted by a familiar gray confirmation screen that pops up displaying the size of the download as well as confirming the price. At the bottom of this gray pop-up is the instruction to press the "X button" in order to change the payment type to MSP. Pictured below with an arrow:

On Xbox.com they've made it much more obvious, the confirmation "extra step" pop-up after clicking the download link displays a link that simply says "Use Microsoft Points" directly under the price in dollars at the top of the page.

The more you know....[/customspoiler]

As an Eagle fan I'm confident Reid will build you guys a good team. Whether he can take that team to a championship as a coach remains to be seen.

[quote name='Jimmienoman']800 pt MSP cards ARE universal. Just saying.[/QUOTE]

are you totally sure about this? And do you mean just the physical cards, or like an 800 point code from amazon will work?
 
[quote name='cthomer5000']are you totally sure about this? And do you mean just the physical cards, or like an 800 point code from amazon will work?[/QUOTE]

Amazon. I bought the game yesterday using 800MSP they sell.
 
[quote name='MSUHitman']Any reviews out there for the online DLC for Scott Pilgrim?[/QUOTE]
Fun when it works and doesn't lag, which is probably 10% of the time.

That is the sale price. It's regularly $40.
 
Dungeon Siege III. I heard local co-op was similar to fable III? Second player unable to save loot, item, progress etc?? Is this true?

So you bought 800 Msp from Amazon and redeemed it on a Hungarian acct? Is that correct?
 
[quote name='XzMrHitDatHoezX']So you bought 800 Msp from Amazon and redeemed it on a Hungarian acct? Is that correct?[/QUOTE]

This has been mentioned many times, yes an 800MSP code from Amazon will work on the Hungarian account. I did it myself just a couple of days ago, and posted it in this thread.

Yes. Just a few hours ago.

Did somebody already try/fail to post all this Hungarian/international pricing in a separate thread? With all the interest it continues to get in this thread, it seems like it deserves it's own space.
 
Kane & Lynch 2 is one of those games that I see on the cheap at various websites all of the time for $15 or less for those that want a physical version for cheaper than XBL.
 
Just got the Sleeping Dogs on the hungarian account for 400 points. Like the other poster said, the points from Amazon, at least the 800, worked. I figure I'll save what I don't use here and see if something else soon pops up
 
[quote name='fatboyjam']Did somebody already try/fail to post all this Hungarian/international pricing in a separate thread? With all the interest it continues to get in this thread, it seems like it deserves it's own space.[/QUOTE]

It was deleted, possibly because the mod didn't think it was a deal, and possibly because it is against Xbox's EULA and CAG doesn't want to support that. I said it before, I think if a similar thread was started in the Xbox discussion forum, they would probably let it slide.
 
[quote name='XzMrHitDatHoezX']Can anyone confirm if Hungarian Mini Ninjas game on demand works on U.S acct? Im trying to use my remaining 400 Msp after picking up sleeping dogs.[/QUOTE]

It was mentioned a few pages back that mini ninjas was region locked and wouldnt work. They also said that tomb raider anniversary was region free but underworld was region-locked. No mention was made on Kane & Lynch 2 (also 400msp) as to if it was or wasn't.


--- On U.S. topic -- anyone know of a site that sells Just Cause 2 decently cheap? I know the doc is dirt dirt cheap, just everywhere I look has the game $25 or up.......
 
Picked up Sleeping Dogs like everyone else. Taking forever to download but that's expected. Picked up the Halloween DLC and the Squeenix costumes too since I don't think I'll be grabbing anything else on the Hungary marketplace. Surprised that even the costumes a fairly big downloads. This one is over 700mb.

[quote name='cspanick']Does anyone know if tomb raider underworld is region free? Its also 400 msp on hungarian marketplace[/QUOTE]

Read a few posts up. It is not.
 
[quote name='Stepith Bloodia']Say guys, is Sleeping Dogs worth it? As I'm either considering that or Fall of Cybertron[/QUOTE]

Sleeping dogs as others have said is really good. I loved the martial arts gameplay in it, plus the map isn't completely overwhelming like a lot of open world games. I am playing war for cybertron now and I enjoy that, but I would say since its more expensive and due for a price drop at some point wait.

Heh, now you got me at Martial Arts. The reason I was thinking of Fall of Cybertron is that it's like 18 bucks right now on Gamefly, though with my 5 dollar coupon, I could reduce it to 13. HehHeh

Yeah I got it with war for cybertron for like 30 altogether on ps3 so I understand. I'd grab that if you're into transformers, but I did enjoy sleeping dogs a lot haha, so much I re bought it to screw around with it again. Try the demo if you aren't 100% sold. It's what got me
 
Need 200 MSP for Sleeping Dogs.. oh well. I wonder if there will ever be a GOTY or complete edition for this game in the future.
 
[quote name='GUNNM']$4 gonna break dat bank?[/QUOTE]


Hey now, I'm cheap, and I'm proud of that...somehow.

Nonetheless, you guys have convinced me, its time to be a kung fu master and steal some cars
 
[quote name='GDark']Need 200 MSP for Sleeping Dogs.. oh well. I wonder if there will ever be a GOTY or complete edition for this game in the future.[/QUOTE]

Probably not, Squeenix hasn't done one yet.
 
[quote name='XzMrHitDatHoezX']Any of the sleeping dogs dlc have achievements?[/QUOTE]

Nightmare in North Point and The Year of the Snake have 5 and 4 achievements respectively, worth an extra 225 points in total.
 
can someone lend me 100 MSP? I'll pay you back when I get enough off Bing, I really want to pickup Nightmare in North Point but I'm 40 points short.
