    Lads,

    My boss wants to get Minecraft for his nephews and doesnt want to put his credit card details on the xbox one, does the Xbox one store your Credit Card details?

    You can buy top up cards in the likes of gamestop and argos etc, you just enter a code and redeem them for the value on the card. So a €20 card would do him fro mincraft. Worth bearing in mind if that account as bought minecraft before on 360 then it will only be 4.99 if bought on one with that account and you can also transfer saves from 360 over.

    You can also buy on line and they will email mail you the code. You should find some links in the last few pages of this thread http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055846688

    Cheers for that, are points still used for Xbox? I thought they got rid of them for some strange reason.

    Yeah, they got rid of them but you can by prepaid cards for a cash value instead (e.g. €5, €10, €25, €50). It's the same thing without the messiness of leftover points.

    Te cheapest way to get it is to buy 1200mp from an online store like cheapxboxlivecodes.com or simplecdkeys . Maybe someone else know but that's what I used to do.

    You could get 4200ms from them which are around €50 in the shops for less than €35. When you enter the code on the one, you get the cash equivalent of around €53 so your making a profit
