Do I get a gift :smile:

I'll post you some Microsoft points. So long as you post me a working version of the RBS app.

To be honest, I am only 99% definitely gonna get the Xbox. If it fails to spark an interest in me then I may stick with my current one or even consider the PS4.

What worries me is that MS have not gone far enough spec wise to be ahead. They also drive me potty with some of the stuff the do and the amount they charge for things. Their sales in the past have been dire. The prices on their full game downloads is shocking. Same with the Arcade ones.

That said, they are going to be offloading a ton of titles very soon with potentially great discounts. See www.majornelson.com for the details. This is how a prper sale pricing should be. Although each title may only be discounted for a short while.

Im still not sure i might even wait for a price drop and see what games come out.

Off topic i love my avatar on WP8 Xbox game.

Also can i spend my gamerpoint in the store for angry birds or is it for something else?

Two different things there Paddy.

Gamerscore (some may call them gamerpoints) - these are points you accumulate when you play games. Achievements have varying different amounts of gamerscore attached. The difficult achievements are worth more in terms of gamerscore. Aside from bragging rights, they have no value.

Microsoft points - this is the currency of most purchases on the Xbox. If you want to buy items you need to use MS points. You can buy them in bundles of 100,250,400,800,2100 etc. The exception is digital versions of full games (COD 4, Halo etc), these can be purchased using money (card purchase)

I fully expect them to do away with MS points for the next box.
