I just hope that the price cuts come out of microsoft's end, as well as the developers. A lot of the problem is that developers can't set the price that they want, they have to use one of the point values. If developers could set whatever price THEY wanted, it would be even better.
Then again, what are the point of points? It's like having a shop in town where if you want to buy anything from them you have to convert your cash to an equivelent value of Algerian Dollars before you can spend it.
Price cuts are still welcome though :P its a tax dodge on MSs part i think. Also i'd say its psychological. people don't mind spending points as much as cash.
It also allows venders to make a profit on them when they sell the cards at shops if they want to.
unlike PSN which uses actual money. although you can still only add money to your wallet in preset amounts. Making it no better than a points system. I assume it's so they don't have to calculate the cost for all items across several nations and only have to worry about the value of the point packs.
Plus the sneaky little blighters have packs that aren't of the same sort of point values as things cost, so you're left with 100ms that you're forced to save to spend on another occasion. Those spare 100 points are for clothing your avatar. The only 'Indie' game I want on Xbox Live is Fate of Atlantis... Nice. I see what you did thar. i wouldn't mind buying that golf game on there,that looks pretty good...other than that i haven't seen anything i would be willing to buy is that a dodgey japanese highschool girl porn game they have up now???
demo didnt reveal anything and im not paying 240 msp just so i can go TSK TSK....... one day microsoft points will become the global currency , then all will become clear
orwell should of spent less time writing about dystopian futures and spent more time writing on how to make a handgun out of a carrot...... much more practical
then again once microsoft take over sony they may get their programmers to work on the soft ware managing fingerprint control on the the microsoft armies guns ..........
in which case the damn things would be updating 90% of the time ..........
