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.

[quote name='John82']No points from Amazon.com are region free .[/QUOTE]



That is incorrect. The amazon 400msp will not work on the hungarian region
 
Ok another ACIII question. Will the season pass work if purchased under a different account than the one the base game is purchased under?
 
Let me make sure I'm not missing anything... the big one day April 1st sale is just BF3, Dishonored, and Fallout 3 DLC? Maybe that's why there were jokes about it being an April's Fool sale because while it's really a sale it's so little it's a joke.

Also, could someone confirm something I believe is correct from my experience: Microsoft DLC and voucher codes inside games NEVER expire?

I've never had a Xbox Live code not work, so I assume all of my DLC should be good to go whenever I decide to play it... though now I worry when Microsoft stops supporting the Xbox 360 on XBL, will the games still be available to download? Or will they shut everything off so you can't redeem any more vouchers and if your Xbox 360 HD dies, you can't redownload games you bought?

I have a few unused XBL Gold 12 month vouchers I bought a few years ago after hearing Microsoft never expired codes. I suppose I should start to use them soon. Does anyone have a guess what my time limit is?

I just learned that Sony PSN expires a lot of their codes (a few them expired before the expiration date), so I missed out on several because I didn't know Sony was that way. There is no point in expiring DLC, especially DLC which Sony hosts and that can be played offline in single player mode, except possibly under the claim "it takes up space on our servers" to which my answer would be... I'd gladly pay a nominal fee every year for you to maintain your old servers just so I can redownload anything I need. I do know that if I lose access to my PSN or XBL bought games when the new systems come out, I'll never buy another digital download console game again. If they shut down online multiplayer access, that's acceptable, but I still want to be able to (re)download my games. Does Steam drop old games you bought from their library because they "take up too much space on their servers"? I don't think so. Sorry for the rant. I'm really worried about this stuff.

I'm not sure what you meant, since you may or may not have left off the comma after the "No".
The 800 MSP code from Amazon is region Free. The 400 MSP code is not.

According to my brother the free 160MP in the Trials/Limbo/Splosion Man pack expired. Otherwise I haven't had anything that's actually FROM microsoft expire (ie. I'm not counting third party). Considering the original xbox still got Live for three years after the 360 launched, I think it's safe to say the 360 will continue to be supported for as long if not longer. Not to be hatin' on Nintendo, but the Wii U has basically made certain that the 360 and PS3 will continue to get ports of PS4 720 games (why would they only port it to Wii U?).
 
Hmm strange i bought a 400 MSP code from amazon.com last week and i could redeem him with no problems on my german account .
 
Here's my question on the ACIII Season Pass: Can anyone confirm that it does indeed work on multiple consoles (licenses)?

I only ask because I found out the hard way last week that the Sleeping Dogs DLC is only playable on the console it was downloaded on. I normally download content on the community console, which is used by the entire household, and play it from my personal console. I want to make sure I can do this with ACIII before purchasing.
 
[quote name='Antarael Dulacre']Asking the people who actually played Dishonored...are the achievements hard to get? The DLC has some high ratios, wanted to buy the game at some point so debating to get the dlc now...

[/QUOTE]

I'm not an achievement hunter at all. But I can tell you that I played through the game twice and have under 400 gamerscore on it I think. So you're not really going to get it without trying and just playing through.

I bought 400msp from GS and Amazon on March 11th. Neither were region-free.

I do think that you can get 400msp codes for a couple of regions like US,JP,UK on amazon. But they do not work on every region. I learned this the hard way
 
[quote name='Tsel']They don't HAVE to have an April 1st sale. You're not entitled to that whatsoever.[/QUOTE]

Except that they do, so he is. Entitlement is a silly en vogue political word right not to encourage people to think they don't deserve to be treated a certain way. If the company we pay money to decides to promote something and it's a disappointment then we are allowed to express our disappointment.

Without that we'd not have a lot of things in retail and business that people encouraged to come about with their vocal and financial protest. You are not "entitled" to have a good experience with what you purchase or support with your money, it's a basic principle of commerce.

When you allow businesses to skate by and refer to others voicing their disapproval as acting entitled, you play right into the hands of businesses trying to give you the least they can for the highest price possible.

I assume you mean TA ratio? Keep in mind they did just do recalculation on DLC ratios over there. So almost all of them are a little inflated.

The Playstation sales have me spoiled because I always look at this Xbox sales as a joke. Midnight Club complete for $10 and the Dishonored DLC is a good price though.

Glad that I read OP because I thought the GOD of Midnight Club LA didn't come with the DLC and was about to buy some, eek.

(Fallout 3 DLC is a awesome price to but I imagine anyone who's really into the game probably already owns it)
 
Can anyone recommend the LA Noire DLC pass? I still havent' played the base game but that's the only thing the looks even slightly appealing to me in this sale. Thanks.

Except... Tsel is saying, I believe, that MS didn't have to host a special 1-day sale just because it's April 1st to begin with. Prior to promoting that they were going to have a sale, what precedent is your money holding them to that they would need to have this sale in the first place exactly...? There isn't one.

And on the same note, if we didn't have the leaked sales page prior to this 1-day sale itself, MS would be more than keeping up their side of things by hosting a sale consisting of simply the aforementioned "horse armor" dlc, it would still have been a sale in some form.

[customspoiler=Semantics]
The term "entitlement" is thrown around, generally speaking, because too many people suddenly believe they should be treated as if they deserve much-more & then-some, and that everything offered should be pleasing to them specifically and all the time. There is a line between being proportionately disappointed/letdown with something versus throwing a hissy fit, stomping your legs on the floor, because something doesn't meet the one-sided standards that only you-yourself have setup and agreed to.

In more-relevant news, this Kotaku article pretty much sold me on the Dunwall Trials dlc, even though I haven't touched my Black Friday Sale Dishonored yet.

I'd try the base game first, to see if the gameplay appeals to you. Personally, I found the game pretty dull and frustrating, but I know some people love it.

Bump since the page changed.
 
Was picking up the ACIII Season Pass and just noticed this in the fineprint and figured I'd relay it since I remember some people asking:

The season pass is not compatible with the Traditional Chinese / Japanese / Korean version of AC3.

Not sure if it's a scare tactic, but figured I'd toss it out there to be confirmed or denied.

[quote name='GUNNM']Yes that would effect you if you downloaded the chinese version of AC3[/QUOTE]

I want to throw this out there, but I downloaded the Chinese one before they cut if off. I didn't migrate anything. I also just bought the season pass with my main, before I even knew about that fine print. I was able to start George Washington just fine, along with everything else installing just fine. I think it's mainly a scare tactic, like you mentioned.

Again, the season pass works just fine with my free Chinese account game.


What is difference between the US version and the Chinese version? Everything was in English and nothing looked any different than my disc copy. Are there console profile defaults that automatically switch everything to your language?
 
Why would they use a scare tactic?

I mean here's how it went/is going.

A bunch of people got an item for FREE. Meaning they made no money off of it.

Now they are having a sale on the DLC for that free game. If someone buys that DLC then they at least make some money off that free game.

I would be doing the opposite. I would email all the people who got the free AC and promote the heck out of the sale. In big bold words I would switch the "does not" to "DOES" work with traditional Chinese, Korean etc

I have not tried it myself, but I know of at least half a dozen people on this board that bought 800 msp codes and had no issues using them on Hungarian accounts. I've yet to hear of a single person encountering any problems. Nothing is 100% guaranteed, but it seems very unlikely you'll have any issues.

I was one that used the 800 on my Hungarian account and it worked no problem.

Well said. Everyone has their own "entitlement threshold" as to when they think their getting their fair shake. In regards to video games, too far to one direction makes them look like white knights for their particular console of choice, and too far the other direction makes them look unreasonably difficult to please.
 
Can anyone confirm that the Assassins Creed 3 Season Pass does indeed work on multiple consoles (licenses)?

I only ask because I found out the hard way last week that the Sleeping Dogs DLC is only playable on the console it was downloaded on.

[quote name='ooga']Hehehe happened to me before. Wait 10 more hours. Not the end of the world unless you need the points NOW.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, as I'm also inconviniently 100 points short of getting the last FO3 dlc. Haha.


P.S.: Seasick, doesn't all DLC work on the console & the profile? So wouldn't it make the most sense to download it on the community but under your profile's name?
 
[quote name='xbox_man']With the assassins creed season pass, is this a season pass that includes all dlc or just some of it?
Also, would you recommend someone that does not have the game and will probably not get and play it for a while yet to get, or should i wait for dlc to come cheaper?[/QUOTE]

It includes all of the DLC, but unless you're going to get the game in a month or two, I'd wait until this goes on sale again.

It does not, the licensing agreement that kept you from using the Sleeping Dogs DLC on multiple consoles also applies to all DLC since the terms were last updated.

[quote name='Anexanhume']I'm waiting for GOTY version. Holding out faint, stupid hope for port to next gen consoles too.[/QUOTE]

Great Skyrim DLC sale but still not a bad idea at all to wait, for those who can. I mean, I bought the Collector's Edition Skyrim for Xbox 360, bought all the DLC thus far and will still get the GOTY too, when it inevitably comes out. I love the game that much.

Ha, I was so thinking the same thing for next gen. I would go crazy for ultra settings Skyrim on a console, perhaps they will get community mods to work on consoles somehow.

Someone let me borrow the complete edition or whatever it's called. Couldn't finish it, I didn't like the era. It's a good game, just certainly some people like myself find it lacking.

[quote name='WolfmanASTN']It includes all of the DLC, but unless you're going to get the game in a month or two, I'd wait until this goes on sale again.[/QUOTE]

Plus there is the final episode for the G.Washington DLC coming out this month. But yeah, you could wait. For those who been waiting and own it or have the game for free like me find it hard to resist with good reason.

It's generally a rule of thumb to not worry about the billion separate pieces of pre-order DLC for the AC series because it will inevitably be released as part of a larger DLC at a later date: see Bonfire of the Vanities & Secret Locations for AC2, Lost Archive for AC: Revolutions & Hidden Secrets Pack for AC3.
 
[quote name='ooga']Hehehe happened to me before. Wait 10 more hours. Not the end of the world unless you need the points NOW.[/QUOTE]
Prices usually transition in the Marketplace around 2am Pacific ... so if you're still awake at midnight, you can still earn that last 1 point. HOWEVER, the Bing points can take up to 24 hours of "office time", since they have actual humans checking redemption, so you probably won't get them in time. Just buy the 800pts from Amazon (or run down to your local game and/or big-box store) and buy the stupid things.

Someone here on CAG may also be selling points, so ask around if you're trying to be "cheap". :)
 
[quote name='Cornelius']Prices usually transition in the Marketplace around 2am Pacific ... so if you're still awake at midnight, you can still earn that last 1 point. HOWEVER, the Bing points can take up to 24 hours of "office time", since they have actual humans checking redemption, so you probably won't get them in time.

I'm seeing if anyone would spot me and promising I'd pay them back tomorrow since I'm flat broke.

Unfortunately no one yet so i'll probably stay up until 4am my time praying that the points come through, haha.
 
[quote name='gospelman']Ok another ACIII question. Will the season pass work if purchased under a different account than the one the base game is purchased under?[/QUOTE]
Assuming you bought both the game & the Season Pass from the same region ... :lol: ... the 1st console that you downloaded the DLC to will have it licensed for ALL users on 360, just like the same rules with XBLA games. On the 2nd 360 & thereafter, you'll need to have the DLC's purchasing account logged in for the DLC to be available to the account that purchased the core game.
