Of course this doesn’t count for Europeans by the looks of it.

And really…i can buy brand new games for like 45 euros anyway. So it wouldn’t even be a nice discount anyway.

Is this download copies of the games?

Pay an extra score and we’ll give you a tenner.

mmm nope.
I would buy full games off PSN but never on 360.
With PS+ I get some sweet deals on full games, paying full price and get 20$ worth of points is pretty good but I just have decided to keep my current gen digital library on PSN rather than XBL

It’s retail copies.

So the PSN, PS+ talk is totally irrelevant here.

They should ditch the archaic ms points system and just show prices in real world currency.
Although pre order benefits are always good.

Yeah it’s irrelevant because I was talking about discounted demos not full games in their release dates!
I see your comment is the irrelevant one here!

Drop the archaic MS points system so that people would have to register a credit card to buy anything. It’s obviously more convenient and secure.

iTunes stopped using those clunky gift cards ages ago. Oh wait, I never used iTunes so not really.

We actually need an ignore feature. You’re wasting my internet traffic.
