Mercifull Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Discount cards ftw. Its obviously a Marketing ploy by MS to know what kinds of things you buy, but if it gets you discounted stuff who cares?! :D Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

runesmithie Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Discount cards ftw. Its obviously a Marketing ploy by MS to know what kinds of things you buy, but if it gets you discounted stuff who cares?! :D Would it be worth the $70 a year compared to a decent discount card though? I just posted something! ^_^ to the terrorist...er... kirbybeam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raiden2k2 Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 I pay $5 a month.. Well, with the 360's support, the whole community thing, online gaming.. I think it's worth it to get a free discount card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 You dont pay for just the card tho, you pay for Xbox Live. the card is technically "free" Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

Raiden2k2 Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 I meant that you pay for XBL, and the card is basicly a little bonus. Yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyPurpleCrayon Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 So wait... If it only comes after you do a year subscription, how do you get it if you only did a three month? Ghost: I am prejudice towards ignorance, so that would explain why I appear to be so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runesmithie Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 So wait... If it only comes after you do a year subscription, how do you get it if you only did a three month? You get it if you buy a year plus up front or if you've subscribed for a year total. Anything less doesn't get it ;) I just posted something! ^_^ to the terrorist...er... kirbybeam.
