I tried it around the 6-7 CST hour and it was 160 points.

I just took a shot on 'akmufc' - $30 for 4000 point cards plus the 8% cashback comes to 27.40.

Our Rock Band 2 disc has a ring carved out of it and it is now unreadable. What can I do about that?

Did you install it to the hard drive before it happened?

I have MK V DC and I HATE playing this with the 360 controller. Has anyone used that Street Fighter controller for this game?

Do you have a friend that owns it that you could rip it to the hard drive? Your disc might still be playable that way.

Or if you're desperate BB has a $20 off coupon in the Reward Zone for RB2, making it $40.

Re: The Official Xbox 360 thread - thread hardest

I just won a RB song from the pepsi contest. When I went to redeem the code I got a error message. When I went to check my download history, I got a unavailable message. All my content is now listed as unpurchased. Anybody else have a problem with a missing purchase history ?

Re: The Official Xbox 360 thread - thread hardest

So you got the 25-digit code from Pepsi to enter into the XBL Marketplace and it's there you're getting the error?

Do you recall the error message when you entered the code?

ETA: I can see my "Game" and "Video"download history, but not my "Game Demo" download history. Hopefully it's just a temporary thing and your code will work when it's all fixed up.

Had this happen yesterday. You might want to try the online marketplace and see if that has any more stability?

Re: The Official Xbox 360 thread - thread hardest

I got the code from the pepsi site and redeemed it at Xbox.com, then I received a message saying a error had occurred. Now when I go to check my download history, I get a sorry unavailable page at Xbox.com and on my 360 I got a error code. Maybe it's some unscheduled maintenance issues, I hope they fix it soon.

Promo points expire, but points you actually purchase do not. I'm not sure what the expiration is, or if it explicitly states it in the points promo. I've also heard that when your account has both promo and purchased points, promo points are used first. But I guess there isn't a way to know for sure about this.

You can check the expiration dates of any promo points you have at:

I've gotten tons of points via promo and never had anything on there tell me about my points getting ready to expire. It does state that they can though.

Yeah I "rented" the Superman feature and I started the DL and went to bed. It's on the 360 but I haven't watched it yet. I assume it DL'd ok.

This will be a shot in the dark, but is anyone currently going through Too Human?

I found a pre-order bonus code for the 5 free armor sets if anyone wants it. Post if you use it.

Figures. I just finished it last night!!

I really could've used some improved armor too, I struggled with the final boss with whatever crappy armor I had left.
