Seems good to me. Seems to be at best €20 for the disk in most places...



Part of the Deal of the Week promotion. Might be Gold Only (not sure)

Deus Ex: Human revolution is the same price as well. Sleeping dogs looks like great fun though.

I'm not a fan of Assassin's Creed, but I do like GTA ... is this more Assassin's Creed than GTA in terms of fighting style? It seems to be more melee combat than shooting.

Melee is more akin to the Batman games.There is shooting segments but I haven't used a gun yet.

Picked up Deus Ex and Sleeping Dogs.

Both cost €24 with points. Great price.

840 points is more like 6.75 euro (if you bought your points through cheapxboxlivecodes.com)

So would be more like 13.50 for both non?

Btw they have Dark Souls for 19.99 aswell, Can you buy an external hard drive for Xbox 360

Up to 32 gigs now. Not sure If That's for each flash drive(64GB) or the max total of both.

brianregan09

Oh so i can use a small one ?

balfe1990

Yes, to my knowledge though I've never used one myself. Minimum of a gig if memory serves.

400pts on the Hungarian marketplace. I'm pretty sure you can buy Irish MS pts cards and use them as well but don't quote me on that. Has to be at least 800pts.

Any points card you buy here will work for purchases in any EU region, so in short yes you could buy a card and add the points to your Hungarian cousins account

Edit: Argos are still selling 2100 for 21.99 if you have to go the B&M route, with £ the rate it was the other day I got 2100 on cheap live codes for a little under €19

mrcheez

Nice, got Sleeping Dogs for approx €3.40 using this method... Tomb Raider Anniversary and Underworld are also 400 points on hungarian marketplace

What do you do? Go to the hungarian Marketplace and purchase from there????

brianregan09

Yeah how do you do the workaround ?

snausages

You need to set up a new gamertag with Hungary as your country. You might need to set up a new hotmail account as well. You have to buy pts cards, you can't just buy direct with an Irish debit/credit card. But I think the deal has expired now. If it hasn't then it's going to very soon.

mrcheez

Yep basically
- create a new hungarian account and new gamertag
- buy some points on cheapXboxlivecodes.com (this is cheapest at the mo due to sterling exchange rate).. 400 points = €3.40
You have to buy at least 800 points before it can be added to the hungarian acc

- add the points to the hungarian gamertag
- wait for next deal and more than likely it will be cheaper on the hungarian profile...this seems to be the case generally

Once game downloaded you can log back into your Irish profile and play the game.


PS be sure to look for the word "Angol" in the description as this ensures that the game will have an english language version...most of them do

Ah no I bought it for the 800 points was just curious how ya did it
