Advantages: Can buy anything from films to arcade games
Disadvantages: That this stuff isn't free
As you may know, the xbox is a very powerful, next generation games console with a massive variety of games available such as Call of Duty and Halo 3 (two of my favourites).
However, it is not until you go online on xbox live that you begin to unlock this machine's full potential. For example being able to play against gamers from across the world.
Microsoft points are also extremely great to have and can really increase your choices and enjoyability of playing the xbox 360. With these points you can purchase many different things on the xbox live marketplace.
The first thing you can buy is an xbox live arcade game. These are classic old style games whose prices range from 400 to 1200 points. Some of my personal favourites are:
- Worms (800 points)
- Uno (400 points)
- Track and Field (400 points)
You can even purchase extra content for these games, for example for worms you can get new levels and backgrounds.
You can also buy downloadable content for many xbox 360 games and these cost about 800 points (though prices will vary), and example would be Call of Duty 4 - where you purchase a new map pack of 4 new maps for online and off line play.
Other items to download from the games section of the marketplace includes gamer pictures and themes for you xbox - these prices are often below about 200, and again it varies from game to game.
Another new privelidge is being able to download old games from the original xbox, called Xbox Originals.
My preferred xbox originals are:
- Halo
- Black
- Burnout 3: Takedown
These cost 1200 points each.
Another area of the marketplace is the video and music marketplace where you can download music videos from a massive variety of singer from Michael Jackson to Robbie Williams.
Another new feature is the availability of movies to download for only a few hundred points. These can even be downloaded in HD.
These includes titles such as:
- I am Legend
- Cloverfield
- Braveheart
- Harry Potter films
and so on ( for a full list visit www.xbox.com)
As you can see having microsoft points can truly unlock the full potential of this amazing console and can enable you to do so much more. It will make playing your xbox so much more fun and you could even just sit down and watch a film of your choice.
2100 points is definitely worth having and is great value for money.
Thanks for reading
