Question about buying games on demand

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 11:25 am

What payment options do you have? can you use paypal, MS points? I know you can use a credit card.



Sorry about creating a whole thread I just need to know.

Yeah - this is based on the fact that when you look at games on demand it gives a price in ?/$ rather than MS points. I haven't actually tried to buy any yet. I always find Games On Demand to be far more expensive than other options though.

I was looking at a game on demand and it said(Y - pay with MS points) at the bottom of the screen and it also said add payment option in the first row.

They are not only dose a game take extra space, but it also costs more, I only bought ME and that was an accident.

I'll be buying a game soon anyway, so I'll tell you if paypal is available as a payment option.

AFAIK = As far as I know.

And the only method of paying is credit card, but unless you have absolutely no other option (e.g. local store, Amazon [which you should have as an option if you have internet access]) it's not worth it. Many of the game are more expensive than you'd new in a store.

Can I ask what game you're ordering and how much it is?

I'm almost certain you'll be able to get it cheaper elsewhere.

Right-o.

@ Lord Elendiir, yes, games are usually cheaper to buy retail than to download directly onto the xbox, but the question was specifically about downloading onto xbox live. :)
