  • The 12 months Live with the 800 points is also available from Amazon at £34.99 and it's in stock, as opposed to the 1-2 week estimate from Play because it's OOS.

    One other thing to consider is internet useage if you have an internet package that has a download limit then the xbox might have an effect on it as your able to download trailers, demos and other things when on live which might put you over your useage limit.

    Doubt it, I played my XB for one night and got my internet capped for going over my 1GB limit....

    Since then I've alwasy used the unlimited download bundle.

    As for the price you can get a 12 month from Microsoft for £31 :)
    Total Debt: £1363.85
    O2 - £719.85/£719.85 * FLM Loan - £300/£300 * PaydayExpress - £235/£235
    Barclays - £109/£109 * HBOS - Paid!

    this is what you need(instant delivery to email address), its a 12 month sub which allows 12 months of xbox live, LIVE is basically multiplayer gaming via the internet connection,

    the other cost is for 1 of these(but before you buy 1 you might want to make sure which console he has whether its a new 1 or the old style as that could determine which 1 of these you buy but im not sure if you can use the new adapter with an older style xbox)

    or an ethernet cable depending on how far the xbox is form the router or there is homeplugs you could use but ethernet is cheapest option

    any other questions just ask


    Thank you for all replies.

    We decided to buy the 12 months pre-paid provided in this link on Sunday.

    For the time being he is allowed on it for one hour in the evening after school and extra time over the weekend.
