Yeah they(M$ AUS) are a fucking joke!
Did they tease u with it also then when u go into it its only got a video there for you?
I then went back on with my US Gamertag and u can purchase the full game.
I havent yet, but I WILL definitely be buying this! Buy it with my US GT and play it with my main(AUS) GT.
When u buy anything digitally online with X360. The console that you made the purchase on and the Gamertag that purchased it own the license to it.
What this means is:
Anyone(any Gamertag) can play/use that full DLC on that specific console, online or offline.
The Gamertag that bought that DLC can also use it on any other console besides the one they purchased it on, BUT they must be logged into XBOX LIVE for it to be the full version/unlocked.
Also once a year your allowed to "migrate" your licenses to another console. IE: U buy another console u can migrate your licenses to that console, so everything u have bought up until then will work as if u bought it on that machine. Good thing is it also works the same on the original machine it was bought on too, it doesnt take away any licensing! So your bascially getting a free copy of overything uve bought once a year
Hopefully in the new year I wanna write up a nice, in-depth guide on how the whole XBOX LIVE digital distribution thing works and how to setup other region Gamertags.
Theres not enough info around on the net and us Aussies miss out on waaay too much!
Speaking of which it works out ALOT cheaper for us to buy things thru the US store atm, not to mention theres more on offer!
U get more MSP for your money and it costs less MSP to buy alot of things in the USA store!!! AND the pricetag is cheaper too!
IE
AUS 1500msp for around $25
USA 1600msp for cheaper
-
USA 1600msp = AUS 1870msp
SSF4[GoD]= AUS$50 USA$30
When buying other region MSP I always use:
http://www.maximuscards.com/?ref=1g3sbshg7bI also use them for my GOLD sub if ozgameshop arent cheaper at the time.
Be careful tho, when u change payment methods to AU they jack up the price, last time I bought US points I kept the option on USA, that way the price doesnt rise, then when u make payment it still works when u enter an AU billing address, just make sure u pay in US currency(not a prob with credit cards nowadays).
IE When I went to buy USA 4000msp they wanted $58AUD, but leave it US and it will say $51USD then after purchase u will look @ ur bank statement and it will come to like $49 or $50 AUD!! Mine came up @ $49(+odd cents) AUD.
$50 worth of AUS msp(2x1500msp cards @ $25ea) would have only got me 3000msp!
If u got anymore questions, fire away!!
*msp = microsoft points
*GoD = Games on Demand (The retail/disc games that u can buy on the dashboard and download to your HDD, so u dont have to use a disc at all)
*DLC = DownLoadable Content; GoD, DLC, Themes, XBLA, etc.
PS: Same thing pretty much applies to all
PS3 owners, USA store is the way to go! Cheaper & more on offer. But then u have to import NTSC/U games, you will probably save cash doing that too!
[EDIT] Sorry for the essay, better to explain properly IMO, or try too
