Ugh, they're so horrible really it's embarassing. You're already begging Japan to gain a little favor for the upcoming nextbox while making such a chickenshit offer.

Post by: Don Flamenco on April 17, 2013, 10:22:51 AM: 100 ms points is very generous. That's like 5 birthdays worth of points.

Avatars are free and required when using a Gold account. The items for them can be unlocked in some games, won as freebies in contests, or purchased by the player. Clothing varies between 80 to 400MSP

Yeah, and even if you won Japanese XBL Marketplace points, they wouldn't work with your USA account. :usacry

Post by: Cerveza mas fina on April 18, 2013, 03:01:14 AM: They could have given away codes that give you like 10% discount on your next purchase or something, comes off less cheap too

Post by: originalz on April 18, 2013, 04:49:32 AM: Yeah, I like how buying a 6 pack of beer saves you like 10 yen instead of buying 6 cans individually. Some shit is more expensive for some reason, buying 2 4-packs of Tokyo Banana is cheaper than buying an 8-pack.

Post by: chronovore on April 18, 2013, 06:08:21 AM: Buying cereal here is like that. Small box, expensive! Large box, even more expensive.
