5.0 out of 5 stars Great gift idea!
Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2012

These xBox points make great gifts for kids/teens when you don't know what to buy them, but also don't really want to send cash. I've bought a few of these for my sons friends for their birthdays. My son is almost 12 and most of his friends are all the same age. Every month there's another birthday party for him to go to, but coming up with gift ideas is getting harder and harder. There are a few neat toys online that work for this age group, like the  Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter , which makes a great gift and works for kids with all sorts of interests. But just about every one of my sons friends has one of these now, so I needed to come up with something else. Many of the boys have an xBox and are always coming over to play games together. They often ask if they can buy and download new games or game ad-on's. These points give them the ability to use the money for whatever they want on xBox Live, without the need for them to use a credit card number. It's a great idea for putting into a card as a gift, and is a little more personal than cash. It's like giving them a video game they want, only doing it in a way you don't have to worry if you're buying something they already have, something someone else is getting them too or something they won't like. This is a terrific gift idea for anyone with an xBox.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great and easy way to buy MS points.
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2007
Verified Purchase
Being relatively new to Xbox Live and also hearing rumors of people's Live accounts being hacked, I was not ready to give my credit card to MS just so I can purchase content on the Xbox Live Marketplace. Instead, I found buying these pre-paid cards is a great option instead. I like them because it allows me to easily calculate the points-to-dollar conversion and limit the number of points I spend until I get ready to purchase another card. Frankly, I have had the first 1600 points for several months now, and the only thing I've spent them on is renting/viewing HD movies. I don't feel the need to play nostalgic arcade games, and most additional content for other games ends up becoming free after a time. (All the additional maps for Rainbow Six Vegas are now free, and the first new maps for Gears of War were free too.) Eventually, though, I'm sure I'll find something I'll want to buy, such as the newly released maps for Gears, so it's good to have points for when case I decide to.

More to the point, these points are great because you can use them for movies, arcade games, or additional in-game content/new maps for most all 360 games. Because of the flexibility, I would say that buying these poings is probably the best value for video game money you can spend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good deal if You buy from Amazon Direct
Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2008

I have bought a few of these before at Target, for 14.99 onsale, but buying on Amazon directly from them is the best deal as long as you go for two or something else with them to get the free shipping. Depending on what state you are in there is no tax. So if that's the case it's a straight shot at 15.97 which is a nice deal. So many great games have come out on XBL lately you really are missing out on gems if you don't buy some of these AAA + arcade titles like Braid, Castle Crashers, Bionic Commando Rearmed, Geometry Wars 2. Plus a bunch more coming soon, and others if you have never bought any from the past.

The Xbox Live Arcade is a big part of the 360 experience, if you are not taking advantage of it you are missing out on a lot of the best original games to ever come out anywhere. Plus so many great remakes and updates to old classic games. Don't miss out on XBLA, if you have never bought points before it's not a big deal, just don't do anything foolish, like scratching off your code by rubbing too hard. Also buy these from Amazon or true retailers, not from Amazon Market place. To avoid some of the not so funny horror stories I have read here. If you follow those simple rules you will be fine, and will be enjoying a new way to get great original games you can't find anywhere else.

3.0 out of 5 stars Essential for anybody using Xbox Live
Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2008
Verified Purchase
Microsoft "points" are essential to anybody using Xbox Live. Points are needed to download Xbox Live Arcade titles, Xbox Originals titles, add-on map packs, movies, videos, and music. Gamers connected to Xbox Live will eventually want to purchase additional content, so points will be required.

The 1600 Points card makes it easy to add points to any Xbox Live Gamertag account. Simply enter the 25-digit code on the console or on the website, and the points are added to the user's account, ready for immediate use. No credit cards or other information is required.

Points cards make excellent gifts for Xbox 360 gamers. They also make it easy for parents to budget points allocation and spending over a period of time. Points will also expand the functionality of the console, by allowing the gamer access to more content.

Unlike the plastic cards of the past, the newer cards are completely cardboard, with a tear-away strip that exposes the 25-digit number. Once used, instead of tossing away the plastic card, the cardboard card can now be recycled. Unfortunately, the plastic packaging seems excessive, which is my only major citicism of this item.

5.0 out of 5 stars Received the Microsoft Points
Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2008
Verified Purchase
Amazon definitely did a good job delivering the Microsoft Points right to my house. I received it not too long ago and the card works (which is really important, of course).

What I REALLY like about the Microsoft Points cards is how Microsoft changed them. Before, you used to have to SCRATCH a section of the card with a coin to see the code (which risked scratching the code also and making it unreadable) but now, they put some type of glue on the back of the card and it is pasted to the back of the box that the card is in. Obviously the glue I'm talking about ISN'T the sticky kind. You just pull the card right off the package and the code is right there in the back of the card (without that scratch stuff on it).

Overall, I'm really happy with the purchase and how Microsoft listened to us about the "scratch off code" issue and changed their cards so we didn't risk scratching the code and making it unreadable.

THANK YOU AMAZON AND GOOD JOB MICROSOFT!
