Most Expensive Add-On, Ever
Gregory Hall \| 12:35 PM on 11.26.2008	23 comments

While browsing through the live store I seem to have happened upon either a glitch or a hilarious fuck up.

No, your eyes do not deceive you. Ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine Microsoft points. At roughly �750 or $1500 you can get a fantastic two in one package providing a new ability and a new dream to watch. I'm buying, are you?

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Reminds me of the 'I'm Rich' app for the iPhone. Nice find.

Qraze

i'd stick with the triple pack. good find?

pendelton21

This must be for whoever wins that 1,000,000 MS Point contest.

Jordan Devore

They did the same thing for exclusive content so that people wouldn't just search for the items on Xbox.com and download them without having pre-ordered.

What grim said

Kryptinite

I'll buy it and tell you how good it is.

BulletMagnet

Or else it was one of those things that weren't technically supposed to be available yet, but people found back-door access to them - MS either deleted them or put the price up to Ludicrous Speed once they caught wind of it.

Gregory Hall

Ahh, Thank you Grim. Oh well it was funny for me.

PhazonYoshi

SOLD!

Funktastic

This has nothing to do with yoru blog post . . . but Middlesbrough? Boooo! GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED! =D

pedrovay2003

Ha, holy crap that's epic. Have they fixed it yet?

Gregory Hall

@Funk, Trust me I have no loyalty to the Boro team, I'm here getting my degree and then I'll be gone.

Gregory Hall

@Pedrovay, nope it's still there.

Neonie

I wish someone really rich would buy it for shit's and giggles then post here.

stevephoenix

this is probably more from the glitch which allowed the limited edition content of games which you usually get by a redeemable code, available on the marketplace. as people found themselves being able to download the limited edition content for free.

to counter this microsoft set everything at this ridiculous price.

@neonie

I'm working on it. Some of my money is tied up in foreign accounts and all that fun stuff. You know, rich people shit.

ShawnKelfonne

@Kryptinite:

You should get a Nigerian Prince to help you wire the money.

Funktastic

Good . . . Middlesbrough sucks! =P Also, I just looked into your Backloggery thing you have on your side panel, and jeebus! Is it easy to use/loads fast? I'm tempted to give it a shot just to see how backlogged I am with my 700 games and all, but I don't want to spend like 5 hours on it, lol.

Gregory Hall

It took me about 2 hours to get 200+ games in. Its not fast but I can't really complain when it'd take about the same amount of time to fill out a spread sheet.

Samuel Dillinger

I played this game all the way up to the last disk and then just never played it again. Dont know why, but it just seemed that the game lost more and more pace and depth as it went on.

Kept me convinced that turn based RPG's are still not for me unless Im really stoned and cant be fucked doing much quick action combat.

So highly recommended if you are always as high as a kite.

Holy shit, you just made me think of a new blog. Youre a champion...see you soon.

P.S- Id buy it, if i gave a shit about the game. Because Im just that fucken idiotic.

Samuel Dillinger

Affable Robot

400 points for the Dungeon Pack Holy shit that is a lot money friggin Microsoft

randombullseye
