I should have bought a US Elite so I could buy region locked games. Apparently there is another price drop in September over there. |

Right well, what would be the point of buying them from that online place i was asking about if you get a headset and the MS points? How do you know the sale is on, and what is the date it starts? My Live runs out on the 19th next month.. I've already used my two free months from RRoD and GTAIV

Oh, from the blog on that site there's a warning about using Hotmail address's to retrieve the code. There's some problem with Hotmail and their address, so provide any email address other than a hotmail one (if you buy). blog post: http://www.microsoftpointsxbox.com/blog/?p=20 I'm tempted to buy and try. Hmmm... They accept paypal too. |

I kept an eye out for one for ages, since I was in no rush for it, but they never left that $1000 mark. People are well aware of those things. It has me stuffed how they're so in demand, but Sony won't budge from their new policy. |
