Xbox 360 "rewards"

[BoyEngland]

Possible the server is down on the diamond registration site.

It did that to me the first time I tried, then I went back and did it a few days later.... twice!

I havent got my diamond card, or free arcade games. I'm not surprised or pissed, but still dissapointed in them.

I was under the impression that the 360 "customer relations" aspect was good, but obviously I was wrong. That's what I get for listening to people on here, leading me into a false sense of security. Pffft!

Try registering in a couple of hours or days if it still wont work.

Well, they're definitely better than Sony's inept customer service department... so that speaks volumes to this casual observer.

Well I just rewarded myself with 2000 MS Points, so they can shove their 200 where the sun don't shine.

I know they are better than SONY at customer relations, they are better than them at almost everything.

Nothing comes to mind about SONY being better than Microsoft at anything related to the 360 and PS2/3.

I don't want to take this off topic, but can you tell me if Texas Hold'em is something I might want to get from the arcade? I think you have it, Creep.

I would suggest the Pool game over TH'E. BUT, be careful with what you "purchase" because the games are quite pricey, and they are non-refundable(if you didn't already know). Pool is 1200MSP but it was damn worth the points and the bickering that my dad gave me for "blowing" 1200points on a "stupid 2-D pool game"(), but when he saw/played it, he changed his mind

hey at least their willing to give you something. Thiers a little saying that goes "everything tastes better when its free". you guys should relish this. You dont see Ps3 owners getting anything for playing games.

Well, I play "Texas Hold 'em" with my brother, Larry (JAKK), and friends (for real cash) every-so-often on Friday nights... so it was only natural for me to download it.

But when I downloaded it, they had it as a free download... so that made it that much sweeter. I told everyone about the free download in the Texas Hold 'em thread that I created a while ago.

Bottom line - I think it's worth the download.

PS3 devotees don't get squat and probably never will. I'm not bashing Microsft for giving away something for free, more so than I am curious as to why Old Spice is a Sponsor. It's just odd. It should be something that has to do with Video Games , Laziness , and/or Gluttony. I applaud Microsoft for this, as it is clear they go the distance to please their customers. All Sony does is dissapoint.

don't you get the pool game for free when you buy the one year gold kit or something?

[BoyEngland]

I think there is a special package you can get where you can get an arcade game with the XBL card, but I cant remember the name. I'm pretty sure its not a pool game. It may exist, but I haven't seen anything with a pool game in the shops.

I should have got the XBL & Camera package, that would have been better for me later down the line. (Realized this 2 days after getting the card)
