| they have clearly designed it so you have to buy more points e.g 1280msp LOL you'd have to either just buy 2000 or 1400 and you'd have a random awkward number left over meaning you'd still have to buy more points when you next purchase and the odd number of points you had left over from your first purchase would basically be POINTLESS (get it POINTLESS ahahaha im too funny)
TITLE EDIT: Please do not use that kind of language, especially in thread titles! Thanks - Publik

| Yeah thats why they are going to get rid of the microsfot point system, the prices are picked by the developers of the DLC not microsoft, so If a company chooses say £8.50 then there isn't anything microsoft can do about the points. But I agree it is a bit of a rip |

| But isnt it MS who sets the margins for point prices e.g 8.50 for 1000? COULDNT THEY DO LIKE 8.50 FOR 1300 this would stop the con of so many games being priced at 1260, 1280 etc etc |

| No coz other wise they would have to have a Microsfot point card in shops for every possible price, would be easier to just use real cash, which is what they are planning on doing, hopefully soon  |

| I prefer the points. I get mine on ebay £15 for 2100 msp. At least I save a little that way and they email the codes to you in minutes. |

| I would prefer it if they did MSP in more options, not just 400, 800, 1200 etc. See Killa is right I mean everytime I go to buy a new arcade for example, I always find myself a few points short so I have to top up!
Maybe real cash is the way to go or plenty more MSP bundle options |
