What a surprise you posting in a console topic, GTFO and get back to your "geeky" pc gaming.....

Great deals. Got to get the Fable II DLC finally.

What does 800 MS points mean in dollars? I forgot since it been so long ago that I played on a 360. I'm guessing around $16 right.

$10 I think.

i dont understand the whole points thing.. like why 80 pts = $1. why not just 100 = 1. 80 is so obscure. any1 know why they did that?

Hmm, well I guess I'll finally get Knothole Island.

@ mtlca

To make people seem like they're getting a good deal on 500 or 1000 points.

Microsoft Points were introduced a while back as a way to facilitate transactions in Xbox 360 Marketplace. Microsoft claims that Microsoft points will finally enable affordable micro-transactions. Because all online transactions cost money to process, small transactions have traditionally not been practical or affordable. It doesn’t make sense to sell something for a few cents when most of the cost will be eaten up by processing fees. By translating dollars, pounds, euros, and yen into Microsoft points first, Microsoft can facilitate extremely small monetary transactions at almost no cost. Essentially, Microsoft pays the transaction fee on the initial conversion, then processes subsequent transactions directly without going through the traditional middlemen (banks, credit card gateways, etc.).

I'll pick up the Fable 2 content, maybe the Fallout 3 content as well.

Damn I just bought Operation Anchorage two weeks ago...
