Purchase Options – Browse and download a great selection of full Xbox 360 games using Microsoft Points, direct debit, or credit card.

Points?! That's awesome news. I've gotten so many good deals for points on eBay and Amazon that thats going to make all games cheaper in general.

It's just that simple.

Gold Member Veterans – Xbox LIVE Gold members get to show it off with a stamp on your Gamer Card that tells people how long you’ve been a Gold member.

Interesting. I think the initial word was that you couldn't use MSP to buy Games on Demand. Glad they changed that.

They always said you could buy with MSP or with a CC. You can't use a CC on anything else, and Games on Demand won't be on amazon to buy

Ah. Must've gotten misinterpreted somehow.

Great now all they have to do is lower their overpriced small small drives.

I'm more hyped for all of this than the NXE itself last year. Finally Debit Card support!

I think I finally know why the video party was delayed untill now. Using the new smooth streaming tec the film will always be playing and remain in sync with your friends. Imagine this a year ago when you have someone with a slow internet speed. The film would stop and buffer every 20 seconds and piss everybody off.

Now with Smooth Streaming the film will always be playing for everybody at the same rate at 1080p! (If your connection is above 4mb)

Heres the link to test it out early for those that have no idea what I am talking about or have not yet tried it.
