How does it work?
You get the code cards sent in a paper sleeve. Once you have removed the card rubs you the code freely, closes his Xbox to the Internet and start the console. If you press the Guide button (the big in the middle) you will find the leftmost selection point: use code. Now is where the 25-digit code and confirm by the will on the Gamertag that balances charged. There are other ways through which you can redeem the code for example. on the Xbox website where you have to register in advance with the Gamertag.
Attention! If that does not check exactly whether you had a transposed letters while entering the code. A very popular input error is the confusion between the O and 0 because both are similar from the picture pretty.
What can I do with points now?
You can exchange for the Avatar the Microsoft Points for Games on Demand (full price games), add-ons, Arcade Games, Indie Games, music, movies, themes or designs for the Xbox, players pictures, clothing & accessories.
Note: If you wish to purchase a full-price game with pinch you need after you have clicked on the Buy X button press to the payment of credit card on Msp switch.
How and where do I replace a the Points?
On the Game Marketplace, Video Marketplace and music marketplace. If you are in the main menu will surely catch your eye are the 3 different marketplaces. Once there, you can then all contents which are commercially browse and spend your pinch. Every purchase you need to confirm in advance and at this point you should also note that they do not get refunded once bartered Msp. If it is right to download multiple content created a waiting list which you also informed how much% of downloads were already loaded. This waiting list, they can be under the point: View Active Downloads.
If the hard disk gives up the ghost I lose sämtliches acquired MSP?
Fortunately not. Every purchase is connected to hard disk and Gamertag. A new hard drive will be used, you can pull over his old Gamertag on the new console. For this operation, the old hard drive is not required since the gamertag is secured virtually and can be transmitted from the power of the console. Is the old drive still functions can all contents are transmitted via Data Transfer Kit the old disk to the new (also with USB Stick possible). Is the old hard drive is defective and rescued the Gamertag on the new, you can find anything you downloaded again for free download.
I have everything downloaded again but somehow I still can not use the content?
Then they do not have the license to the content in order to what is on the hard disk to access. If you are logged in with the gamertag and console connected to the Internet you get the licenses temporarily. This means when you are offline they lose the right to use. But there are also here a way to transfer the licenses permanently so that they can also be used offline. On the Xbox Web site, it is possible to transfer the licenses on your current hard drive permanently. How does the whole is explained there. To mention only the remains is just a time-period for the license for retransmitting. If the first time can run you no longer use the service for a year.
Is there a way to get free Microsoft Points?
This question I was often heard from friends circles and I will answer you simply times with: NO! To give away has rarely a thing and a way to get free points is not known to me. What I do not, however, known that dirty mesh of scammers unsuspecting people are attracted to free points. All I can put only 3 things you warmly.
1. You send Never! still functioning codes to any email address. Even if the Addy looks when she Xbox itself and promised you will be through this e-mail to get a new code would be. The code in the sent mail will be used by the scammers themselves.
2. Install generate no generators ... via software by a few mouse clicks codes can not. Most will even requires certain security mechanisms to disable. The software is for the purpose Trojans & Co sluices on your PC.
3. Pay for Microsoft Points if you want to have that because.
Now we come to review the article:
+ Simple application
+ Many investment opportunities
+ Good system
+ No expiration date
+ No declaration of personal data necessary
Personal opinion and conclusion:
Microsoft Points are the boon and bane. Clear one looks forward if, for example. a new add-on appears and you an old game can again appeal to experience something new. But it is equally annoying if you already have to spend money to recharge the points. Of course, the points are not a must and you can finish any game well without. I also have no problem with the developers in this way to pay if you make the effort something new afterwards! add in the form of an add-on ...
... But unfortunately it is more often the trend to exploit the players by the content actually already could have been in the full version is anticipated taken out to him (usually a few days / weeks after publication) to make commercially. It shows especially if you have an add-on downloaded at lightning speed with a lot of content and thus already unlocks available on the disc. I think if you should acquire a Game honest you also entitled to a complete game. Fable 3 has been the Game at the three test thus makes coal, because there (the black colorant) was even after publication of content to make away purchasable around him! Whether, how much and what additional content is available for a game of course will depend on the development studio. Therefore, be said that there is next to the black sheep of course publishers use this additional revenue stream fairly and only offer content for download which is the money really worth.
To them I can only give good advice not facilitated manufactures and controls output points as potential users, as they are issued eh faster than one would like, and you should therefore not spend on unnecessary bullshit. Should you have any further questions, please ask me that calm in the comments ... and all buyers I wish at this point a lot of fun with the exchanged content.
