what would you do with 500,000 MS points

[Whitenail]

Well I imagine I'd buy a nice them first and foremost, I noticed a nice Alan Wake them on a video a while ago and felt that the scenic forsests and rivers would make a nicer dashboard than my current Left 4 Dead one that I got free from an Xbox Magazine disc.

Then I'd give my avatar a sweet new wardrobe, maybe get around to downloading Psychonauts (last time I found myself with a bounty of points I wanted to but I didn't have the space, I believe I purchased Super Meat Boy and Undead Nightmare before using the remainder on the First Strike pack) and then maybe have a movie night with friends and family through Zune and use the rest for any good-looking arcade games and DLC packs.

Well seeing as there is little you can do with MS points apart from spending them in the marketplace. I guess I would... spend them in marketplace?

Buy a new Xbox 360 elite.

 

[FalloutJack]

Get REAL money.

don't forget your limited by the size of your hardrives people

Ah, do not worry sir, I save most of my DLC to memory sticks.

I should start doing that too. My HDD is only 60 GB.

As for me, I'd take those points and see if I can buy out Microsoft.

Sell them to someone else, I have no use for them.

Yeah, but you'll have to pay $120 to get your console fixed, or $300 to buy a new one, and you can't do either of those with your microsoft points, and I wouldn't be willing to spend more money than I already have on the piece of shit hardware in the xbox 360. After getting mine fixed 3 times I'm officially done with it if it ever breaks again.

Or buy a refurbished no Hard drive one for around $100 and use the hard drive from the old one, which would contain your updates, your account, your MS points with no need to transfer.

I must be extremely lucky, as I've only had 1 xbox break and that's because the AV ports got dirty from where I had placed my xbox, I got an arcade xbox before I knew about the refurbished xbox's and transfered my hard drive.

Switch my Motto to BRB playing minecraft and leave the points on there until I care.

 

[SomeBoredGuy]

I'd wonder why the hell someone gave me all those points when I don't even own an Xbox.

Then I guess I'd buy one just to see what kind of carp I can buy with it.

Can you sell them on ebay? Cuz that's what i'd do.
