Xbox Live Price increase

[Mike Hoxbig]

Not that 360 games but yes to the one games.

Not if he reactivates his Gold subscription though. The games will still be available to download and install, he just won't be able to play them unless he has an active Gold membership...

That's true

I purchased on the 11th @ R649, now R689... so not quite a R100

Now it's gone to R699, seems they just cranking the price up.

Why is it still showing R590 for me? Administrative error?

The increase is effective 20 june.
Until then, you can still purchase at the old price.

The only game I really play, is exclusively PC, and I got a lifetime sub to it in 2013 already.

I have many other games, though. One day I hope to get to them all.

Trump would never let this happen!

 

[boeriebuffet]

Oh wait, this is exactly the kind of thing Trump would do

Has anyone been able to purchase a 12 month sub?
Purchase from the xbox store is conveniently broken.

I've found this
http://www.bidorbuy.co.za/item/231054938/XBOX_LIVE_12_MONTH_MEMBERSHIP.html
But not sure if I should trust it.

The site for the seller, gamexchange.co.za, redirects to www.buyitatcost.co.za which is very outdated and has hardly anything listed.
Checkout is secure though and card transactions done through Mygate.

I'm still disappointed I got no mail about the price increase, would be great if the increase was after payday :/

They've always been expensive.

 

[happynoodleboy]

I still think it is worth it.

So in June I got:
XCOM: Enemy Unknown Xbox 360 2016-06-16 $39.99
Super Meat Boy XBLA 2016-06-01 $14.99

$54.98 = R837.82. https://www.google.co.za/?gws_rd=ssl#q=zar+vs+usd
For R160?

Seems like a good deal to me......

 

[PsYTraNc3]

R759 on evopoints.
Forgot to try purchasing again from Microsoft before the price increase so glad I got this one for not much more than the original price.

You can get a 12 month subcription on cdkeys.com for $44, which is about R650.

Tried every combination but couldn't do this on xbox live, just didn't accept my credit card payment, either defaulting to US payment or some other error. Am a little bit annoyed.
