Uh oh. Microsoft is onto me. Today's poll question on MS rewards:
"Please vote the bottom option.
No, I'm just here to receive points
Sure, top option wins too much"
I still picked the top option lol

Thanks for that reminder, finally a movie that I'd like that I don't already have. Grabbed 12 Monkeys.

I highly recommend Being John Malkovich for anyone that hasn't seen it.

My $10 autoredeem went through about an hour ago. Bit later than usual.

They only briefly mention the events of No Way Home, just know that Strange messed with the multiverse.Decided to sign up for Disney+ over the weekend to get caught up on the Marvel movies and Spiderman No way home isn't even on it. How lost would I be if I just go straight to the new Dr Strange movie?

I got an email from Microsoft Rewards today that "We're reaching out to let you know we ran into some issues trying to process your recent order. As a result, we've canceled your order".
That should be referring to my monthly $10 auto redeem. Looking at my balance though, I have $10 expiring July 29, which I think would be the correct 90-day expiration date for a reward redeemed today. Can anyone confirm the expire date on their auto redeem from today?
-Update-
Thanks to Bloomy for confirming the expiration date. Looks like I still got the monthly credit despite the error warning.

Ever since I started transitioning my collection to all digital this year, this has been the single-most rewarding aspect each month. Last month I grabbed Mummy 4k and Mallrats; 12 Monkeys and Snow White this time. Still have over 4k points for the next few months, but did just abuse D2D to pick up Conan the Barbarian for $2 and some more points. It's still insane to me how cheap and easy it is to collect movies this way following a rule of $2 HDX/$5 UHD.
Now I just need to be on top of Vudu GC deals, or apple credit for MA deals on movies that might get a 4k release.

That's when my $10 from today is expiring.

I would recommend watching Loki and WandaVision before Multiverse of Madness if you haven't yet.

Why does it feel like the quality of every developer that Microsoft just bought is dissapointjng? Like MS is either the touch of death or they are chasing developers past their peak.
Deathloop, Ghostwire Tokyo and now this makes me very nervous about Starfield.
Deathloop and Ghostwire were PS exclusive before, so that's not really on MS. I liked Deathloop and have not got around to Ghostwire yet, but seems like a dev trying something different. I know people want another third person action game such as the one genre at Sony, but I like the variety. Even if a bit janky at times.

This has pretty much been my method as well. While I have a lot of non-MA content locked into VUDU, I think Apple is overall a better place to buy things considering they now have a Roku app and free 4k upgrades.
MS also gets a nod because you can get $10 auto redeemed every month, $5 for $10 Xbox credit at Gamestop once a month, plus the 3 movie punchcard for 2,500 points

The 50 pt earn more punchcard disappeared. It probably won't be there tomorrow :(

Leaked reviews haven’t painted a very good picture of Redfall. Oh well, I’m just going to try to have fun with it. Sucks more for Xbox’s reputation more than anything if that’s the overall narrative.

I definitely don't think that every game needs to be a 9 out of 10, but Microsoft definitely needs a system seller or two right now. The number of high-profile first party titles that have released in a sorry state is starting to get embarrassing, and with this being one of the first major games coming out of the Bethesda acquisition, it should have been a homerun.
This is totally unrelated to the quality of a game, but am I the only one who thinks the box art for Redfall looks terrible?
Even if they patch it all up in a month, the damage will be done in terms of player perception.

Did anyone not receive their auto-redeemed $10 this month? Mine isn't showing, and the points weren't deducted from my total. I guess I have to use my PayPal account to buy the Kingdom Come: Deliverance - DLC Collection before it goes off sale.
Edit: I guess you guys had mentioned this problem earlier today while I was at work. I submitted a ticket. Fingers crossed.

Box art? What's that?
I am going to give the game a try in 40 mins. Assuming it lets me play at 8pm Eastern.
