Never Use Microsoft Points Again

by Dylan Duarte on June 8, 2009 at 9:00 pm

GOODBYE FOREVER

That title may have been a little dramatic, but I sure as hell plan to never use MS points again. In a Live update later this year, Microsoft will add the ability to purchase items directly with a credit card, rather than using the points system, which oftemtimes forces you to buy a larger block of points than you need. However, Microsoft points will still be available for those who want to use them. This begs the question: why would you?

Would you guys ever use points if you don’t have to?

    When you're not able to access a credit card, for example when you're just a wee boy, points bought in store are a way to get DLC.
