You'll need a MS passport account and your store number.

Only MS games/accessories are available.

[squidget]

yeah but the charge you a s & h and some other fee...
its not too bad on the games it comes to be about 9 dollars for the games listed, but the accessories its still 9 dollars and thats not that much lower then what retailers can get it for cost

still cool though

[jrutz]

Which games are offered? And I don't suppose anyone would want to offer to pick some up for me? ;)

the launch titles
halo
oddworld
azurik
and the 7 or so others i dont feel like typing

i got halo its the only one that was worth it

[GizmoDVD]

Hmmm... I will HAVE to do this tomorrow...

[quietsoul]

Wouldn't be interested in helping an Otter out, would ya?

[Pasco]

It took a while, but I just nabbed a copy of Halo and Quantum Redshift for under $13.00. Much better than the usual $100.00 retail. Worth the time and effort. The questions are pretty easy.

[dvdmovie1]

Got Halo & Project Gotham.

[Vryce]

$13 for 2 games?

Man... I need someone to help me out.

I'd love to get Project Gotham cheap.... Redshift looks pretty cool too...

[syphon00]

so do u guys "actually" work for a retail place?
or just made it up

[alexkat]

Anyone want to trade discounts? I really want Halo, I can offer discounts on games the company I work for makes. Pc games at my company are $10, and console games are $15.

[GizmoDVD]

Alex, I could possibly help you out.

I will get my store number and everything else tonight so I can get some of these games...supersweet...

[goLUCKY]

Should I get a part time job, get the games, and then quit! ;) $70 for 7 xbox games....hmmmmmmmmmm

Thanks for the info. ;)


Can you guys get multiple copies?

[badlieut]

I'm not sure I understand how to use this. I signed up for a passport account. Then I registered on the training part of the retail site and entered my store number and everything. There was no confirmation or anything. Now it asks for an I.D. number which I wasn't given. I ask to be emailed my I.D. number and there is no confirmation (it just reloads when I submit) and no email is sent.

[Vryce]

Wow.. I'm extremely jealous of you guys able to get cheap games..

Sounds like alex has quite a hookup as well.

Anyone want to help me out? I could offer cash, through paypal, plus $5 extra for troubles...

At this point I'm only interested in Halo

[brkhrt7]

Bumping so someone can get some cheap Christmas presents for someone (or themselves). It only took 5 days or so for me to get mine.I would suggest picking up 2 or more titles at once to save on shipping.Some titles have been reduced (Amped,etc.) Halo goes the fastest by far. One of the best deals this year!

[beefcake2006]

I just bought an xbox and this is an sweet deal. Anyone able to help me with this? I would really appreciate it....thanks.

[Cusm]

Anyone know how long it usually takes? And what kind of varification they do? I am just outside their terminated date grace period but tried it anyway.

How long does it take to sign up? or get the games?
they do database check. For example they have the addresses and store numbers of all the CompUSA's. the address, and the store should match. Sometimes, (very seldom) they do a phone check. Where the call the store number and ask if such and such works there.
btw, the slashed some of the older titles in the way of how many points you need to get them.

[Jadakiss]

They also added MechAssault and Shenmue II as two of the titles that you can buy with your points. But Halo is gone.

Edit: Nevermind...they put Halo back on the prize list.

[SuprVgeta]

Mechassault and Shenmue 2 for that cheap, sorry to be a leech but would somebody like to help me out? I've been looking at picking these games up for a while, but have yet to find a good deal on them. I could pay through paypal. You can email me at SuprVgeta@hotmail.com Thanks in advance if anybody can help.

[GatorDeb]

Would someone mind picking up Halo for me? :)

[squidget]

The Full List:

700 Points:
Amped
Azurik

Halo
Kakuto Chojin

Right now there are no more modules and I don't have enough points to order any games for anyone :(

[Vryce]

K.. I know this will be a long shot, but if anyone wouldn't mind ordering Project Gotham Racing and MechAssult for me, I would pay for cost + shipping + round up a bit to make the deal nicer.

[Barney1234]

I did it, very cool what you can find on the internet.
I found an address and a store number for a game shop.
:)

Mech Assuault, Shenmue 2, and a cap for 17 bucks.
Not bad

Thanks

[s}{ammer]

where did you find it? I would like to get this also. :) Just email me if you could. :)

[Gallant Pig]

Be advised if you do this fraudently there could be repercussions if you are caught.

[s}{ammer]

I hear ya, anyone want to order mechassault for me then???

[Gallant Pig]

I'm selling my mint condition Mechassault for $40 in case anyone is interested. :)

Lets see... you pay approx $10 for it, use it and then want to unload it for $40.. yeah.. I'm all over that... ;)








j/k and giving you a hard time because I always read about these kinds of deals that I can't partake of.

And I don't even know anyone that works for a retailor that I could have order games for me.. Sucks to be me. :(

[Commando]

Just received my mechassault and project gotham racing,...thats gotta be the best video game deal ever.

UT OH !!! Too late for me. I think I hear Bill Gates and his XBOX Police knocking on my door.

Seriously though, not that I condon submitting fraudulent info to obtain substaintially discounted merchandise, but the worst they could possibly do is try to make you pay full MSRP. This would be too costly and not worth their time as would checking 100% of the orders to see if they are from actual employees of a gaming retailor.

actually, if anything they would shut down the site for good.
which means those of us are legit would screwed over because of scammers.

this happen with a discount program AMD had a few years ago.

I don't know if they would shut down the sites for good. Bill Gates has a ton of money and games are next to nothing in cost of production. Also I am sure Microsoft would be pretty happy to see a lot of people learning their products in-depth enough to take a quiz on. Not to mention none of the products you take the quizzes on are available in the Prize Shop, you have to play full MSRP ;).

[ufjason]

I used to work at best buy and was on this site but they never had anything to buy. I had accrued points however. Can I still redeem points and use my previous employment to my advantage? I'm just affraid of getting a law suit slapped against me from trying to get mech assault for 9 bucks.

[MWB]

Got an e-mail from the XBox Retail site yesterday. It was a short survey, asking some basic questions, mostly about some XBox newsletter, and it also had a spot to make suggestions about the site.

Best part is--complete the survey, and they credit 50 points to your account.

So, XBox retailing guys, check your e-mail. . . :)

[bunzpor]

Anyone willing to pick up Halo for me I will pay for it plus shipping

[edytwinky]

No more MechAssaults! :(

[Not A N00b]

sweet deal. I work at gamestop, so it was easy to get set up. Shenmue 2, Halo, and Amped for $17 :D

Only thing is now I only have 160 points. Anyone know how often they add new quizzes and such to the site?

[Trigger]

this is a sweeter deal than MS employees get.

you wont get hit with a lawsuit.
yes you can still order, because they never de-register people for not using.
if it comes up, they will ask for your latest paystub, if you don't have one they will cancel your order, and terminate account

btw, mechassualt is back instock

from what i noticed they come up every month or so usually 2 or 3 at time. its not very consistent.

[tygloalex]

I would also like a Halo, or Inside Drive 2003. Definitely will pay for cost and shipping and a few bucks extra.

[dgc]

FYI - Jade Empire in stock at the prize shop.

Talk about dusting off an old thread... :D

[dgc]

FYI - For those few that don't already have it, Forza Motorsport is currently in stock at the prize shop. Gotta love $9 games...
