    Thanks. I have this free month's pass of Gold since they refurbished my RRoD 360, so could I use that? Is it worth anything?

    Well that's bloody charming... Spent 2600+ points last month and this is how they reward me!! (well, apart from the 800 free points!:p)

    Anybody got a spare 24hr pass?

    I don't think the 24/48 hour trial pass will allow you to take advantage of these Gold member offers. I tried it with a (really old) 48hr code and it didn't work.

    I'm pretty sure Fnz is right about the 48hr passes not working but if anyone does want to try their luck I'd appreciate their feedback.

    Scott Pilgrim is a great game... a little on the tough side if you're playing 1 player (and since there is no online co-op you probaly will be) but nevertheless a bargain at 400points.

    Haven't got mine yet, which is irritating considering all those new keyboard Rock Band songs in green tempting me everytime I go to pick a song :(

    No sign of them yet - the T&Cs were pretty vague about when your account will get credited, could be any time up until the end of the month...

    Using the 48 hour pass that Fnz supplied me with didn't work:o

    OT but I hate how RB3 does that.

    "Oh hey look, here's an awesome song you don't have. Buy it!"

    I had to disable that, hit select on the song list and I think it's the 3rd one "Show Recommendations"


    On topic again Scott Pilgrim is bejayzus hard :mad:

    Seems to be worth the 400 though :)

    This is probably the third/fourth time I'm after posting this, but it just keeps getting cheaper and cheaper. It's not £11.95 (+99p delivery) on Zavvi.com
    http://www.zavvi.com/games/platforms/ps3/valkyria-chronicles/9997576.html

    or £12.91 on Asda.
    http://www.asda-entertainment.co.uk/games/platforms/ps3/valkyria-chronicles/9997576.html

    Either way, it works out as about €15 for the game.

    Age of Empires III is 10c or 10 MS points on GFWL. You have to download the GFWL client though for it to work with an Irish account.

    If you already have an XBL account it'll work with GFWL and uses the same points balance you may have there.

    My cousin works in a charity shop and he said there was a few decent xbox360 games on sale all for €10.

    That's a place no-one would really consider.

    Looks like Vanquish (along with Goldeneye:Collectors edition for Wii) is going to be on special on Amazon tomorrow as part of the Black Friday Deals. No idea what price but it could well go below the price on Zavvi. I'll report back after 2 pm.

    Fallout: New Vegas (PC) £16 @ Amazon.co.uk

    Activates on Steam as well :D

    They do free delivery on orders over £25 now also so it's as good an excuse as any to buy more.
