    Has anyone bought a game thats on a profile before ? Is it safe enough

    Saw this in Smyths in Claremorris, so possibly in other stores.

    Two left on the shelf.

    The barcode on it is 885370664270 so it seems to be the Xbox Live 12 Month Gold Day One Steelbook - with Killer Instinct Round One Shadow Jago DLC.

    (Its just in a display box and sleeve in the above pic)

    If you go back a bit in this thread (i think) you'll see most of us here strongly advise against this.

    Mainly because there is NOTHING stopping that person recovering their profile and leaving you with no game.

    Personally. Not a chance would I go for it.

    It's a company selling account details. Either way it's not allowed by Microsoft. You could face a console ban for it. Avoid.

    Posts moved to the "XBLA Deals/Deals with Gold" thread. While we don't mind the odd digital bargain in here, if it's a major sale or bargain that may trigger loads of follow up posts, please put it into the right thread.

    Same, but I wouldn't deal with them again. It took nearly a month for me to get the controller, the couriers had it for 2 weeks before they bothered to deliver it and Littlewoods customer service was non existant, only getting back to me after it was actually delivered. I wouldn't bother with them if anyone lives in a rural area.

    I had a look in the Avatar Store the other day for the first time in probably about two years, couldn't believe the amount of stuff in it! The amount of movie/tv items is crazy, but I was more shocked by the price of them.

    Couldn't resist an It's Always Sunny t-shirt though :o

    Assassin's Creed Unity Digital Copy for €13.05 when using there 5% Facebook discount code.

    Even with its problems and the fact they gave the single player story DLC free in the end this is extremely cheap for a big name xbox one game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 507 ✭✭✭terryduff12


    Weren't few online places selling codes on the cheap and they cancelled them as they were stolen


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭TrustedApple

    That was U play CD keys. They where bought with Stolen cards and sold via a 3rd party on a CD key site.

    This code is from the Xbox one Bundles.

    Got my Xbox live and Black Flag off that CD key no problem what so ever

    Suppose for 13 euro its worth the risk. Have u used it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 801 ✭✭✭FobleAsNuck

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 433 ✭✭rafi bomb

    I used them in I think December and got ac unity and black flag. For the 22 I paid for unity I do enjoy it, and rarely see the bugs. It is a beautiful game graphically. And good for when you have a few spare hours.
