    During this month, most of us know that if you spend 2400 points on Arcade games and DLC on Xbox Live you will be given 800 points for free at a later time in the future.  
     
    I seen this deal as a great opportunity to get some DLC I've been meaning to get (everything for Mass Effect 2) and some sweet games, like Scott Pilgrim. So I got some new points, spent my remaining 1000 points on RB songs, then 800 on Scott Pilgrim, 560 on The Writer, 560 on Kasumi, 560 on Overlord, and 800 on Shadow Broker. I have 960 points left and it's gonna be awesome to check my mail someday in a couple months and have 800 more points, on top of my existing 960, waiting for me :D Borderlands DLC! (I don't want Mad Moxxi, that DLC sounds like shit, and I already have Zombie Island so I'll be getting Revolution and Secret Armory) 
     
    Just a reminder! If you want 800 free points in the future this is a wicked deal and a great time to catch up on some games or DLC you might have missed.  
     
    What have you bought during this October to count towards your free points?

    Pretty excited about spending 1200 points on Super Meat Boy a little later this month.
     
    Unsure if I'll manage to spend enough to qualify for the offer, although technically it'll be like getting a 1200 point thing for 400 points if I do... Curse you offers!

    It's actually DLC and Arcade games only - no GoD, Avatar Items, Music, Videos etc.
     
    My plan:
    Liars and Cheats - 800MSP: Done
    Undead Nightmare -800MSP: 10/26/10
    Costume Quest - 1200MSP: I know it's sometime in October.
     
    I have a few friends that have held off on RDR DLC so far and their plan is to nab all three and basically get one for free.

    Not yet, but I will be soon.  Gonna grab Comic Jumper, Super Meat Boy, and Costume Quest.   Then, I will probably use the 800 points to grab Monkey Island 2.

    Already used around $25 on L4D and Alan Wake Dlc, and some RB songs, but still need to get RDR dlc (Undead) and Costume Quest (May get it for PS3, though)

    I've spent 560 on Left 4 Dead 2's The Sacrifice and will be spending another 1200 on Costume Quest.
     
    ...pretty sure I won't have any problem spending the last 640, maybe Pinball FX 2, maybe Deathspank: ToV, maybe any number of things.

    Got all of the DLC for Mass Effect 2 and finally bought Puzzle Quest, so I think I've passed the requirement.

    So far i've gotten Comic Jumper, All Fronts for Gears 2 and some Dead Rising DLC.  Either Costume Quest or Super Meat Boy should be enough to bring me over.

    It is valid in the UK, though the 800 points aren't going out until the end of November. 
     
    I've already bought Comic Jumper and plan on getting Costume Quest next week.

    @Icemael: Worldwide, except for Italy and France I think. 
     
    But yeah, spent 1200 on R-Type Dimensions (really just because I got a new arcade stick and wanted to have some non-fighter arcadey game). Will probably spend another 1200 on Costume Quest or Super Meat Boy.

    @GideonAmos: Cool. 
     
    Is Hard Corps: Uprising or Guwange coming out this month? I've bought Ikaruga for 800 and I'll spend another 800 on Lair of the Shadow Broker, but after I've done that, there's really nothing out now that I'm interested in. Except The Writer, but that only costs 560, so I won't reach 2400 with that.

    Yup, all thanks to DLC. Bought 1,600 points of Mass Effect 2 DLC; Overlord and Stolen Memory were on sale for 400 each and got Lair of the Shadow Broker as well. Then rounded things off with Minerva's Den for BioShock 2 and then proceded to spend my 800 point boon before I've even received it and bought the latest Borderlands DLC.

    I got all the Mass effect 2 DLC but the first two I don't think counts towards the deal.  Also got Lara Croft.  So I guess that and Shadow Broker is 2000 points if the first two dlc's don't count for mass effect 2 since that was a deal of the week deal. 
     
    So I guess I still need another 400 points...

    Claptrap DLC for Borderlands 
    The Writer DLC for Alan Wake
     
    That's pretty much all I'm downloading this month, which qualifies me.  I just have to wait for those games to be released.

    No. I refuse to, honestly. I like the days when I could get games for 400, and sometimes for 800. Now it's all fuckers at 1,200. I have my Contra and Super Contra, fuck you XBLA.

    Games on XBLA are getting bigger and cost more to produce, that's why they're more expensive. That's not to say there still aren't 800 MSP games out there, they are still being made. It's just that the more high profile ones cost a little more. Look at Scott Pilgrim, that came out at the end of August and it's 800 points.

    Any DLC or Arcade game you buy counts towards the deal. As long as it's DLC and Arcade games you're set.

    Yeah, I'll be curious to see how this pays off for them, and won't be surprised if it becomes a more frequent deal.

    Not yet but I'd better start thinking about it seriously.  I'll probably buy the Hydro Thunder Hurricane DLC on the 27th which means the next 800 points I spend (as long as I spend it quickly) will be 'delayed free'.

    Does anyone know if Indie Games count towards the 2400 points? I've got 400 points I still need to spend having bought Super Meat Boy and Costume Quest, so I'm thinking of buying Breath of Death VII and something else.
