Was reading on the site, that is the next promotion so that should be after the free weekend. Even if its only 500 points, I will be pissed if its some sort of giveaway for people that sign up for agreements for there services of some sort. Since I got nearly everything through Verizon. Verzion FIOS, Verizon Wireless & Verizon home phone services =).

You need to remember that MS owes you nothing. You paid for a $300-400 console that costs them much more. You already got what you paid for so now you just wait for games you want and buy them just like every other console ever made. If you pay for xbox live, you are paying to play online and use the other functionality of Live. I will repeat, you have gotten what you payed for and MS owes you nothing. This is not directed at a peticular person, just a statement to all who wish to wine about not getting anything for free.

dude, theres like 2 people who posted above you. and both of them are kinda relevant to what you said.



so yah it was probably aimed at them despite your putting the line "this is aimed at noone"

its not like its a bad thing, just no need to sugar coat it.

Your right, they are part of the reason I posted that. For them and for anyone who wanted to come in here aand wine about gold members not getting anything for free like last time this was posted. I put the "not directed at you) comment in there because I didnt want a fight. I hate when I hear people who wine.



Im I spelling wine wrong?
