my rebate came through too - free pacman for me! it really is an incredible game..

[ItsThere]

Is there any way to tell if you have got your rebate?

I stupidly can't remember how many points I had on my account and therefore how many I am supposed to have post rebate - is there a confirmation email or anything?

[Skull Commander]

Apparently they points just appear. Still no joy for me today

[ItsThere]

Ok. Well I have literally no way of knowing if they are there or not! I shall presume they are not there.

[fuse]

No points for me yet either. I'm sure I will want Pac-Man but if the rebate comes it's going on Shank.

I got my points a couple of days ago, think i'll have a slice of the 400 rebate offer too - There are a few titles there I wouldn't mind playing.

Star. Thanks.

[SuperBeatBoy]

Still haven't had my points yet and i bought a **** load of stuff in its period.

[Skull Commander]

I'm in the same boat. Hopefully they are just gradually rolling them out.

For the last big rebate a lot of people only received it right at the end of the month.

Is anyone having trouble adding points to their account at the moment? There's a 400 point rebate if you spend enough and I was keen to get some Perfect Dark / Ikaruga on. So I've bought a code off cheapxboxlivecodes.com and it's not working. Then I tried to get some directly from Microsoft on my console and off the Xbox website and keep getting an error. Called their customer services line and they've not got a scooby doo [they've referred it to their technical support -- may take 2 weeks to get an answer!]. Just wondering if it's a general XBL problem [that their helpline knows nothing about -- wouldn't surprise me...]

Still no points rebate for me...

[Skull Commander]

I don't quite get their logic of giving some people last week and not giving others at all yet. I'm sure we will all get them at the months end, but I'm glad I'm not the only one still waiting.

Probably won't be international but the US is have a Thanks Giving/Black Friday sale. One per day I believe. There should also be something else on Friday itself.

Xbox 360 Games

• "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" (Rockstar Games) - 400 Microsoft Points
• "Halo: Combat Evolved" (Microsoft Game Studios) - 400 Microsoft Points

Xbox LIVE Arcade

• "Trials HD" (Microsoft Game Studios) - 400 Microsoft Points
• "'Splosion Man" (Microsoft Game Studios) - 160 Microsoft Points
• "Monkey Island: Special Edition" (Microsoft Game Studios) - 400 Microsoft Points
• "Madden NFL Arcade" (Electronic Arts) - 400 Microsoft Points
• "Portal: Still Alive" (Microsoft Game Studios) - 400 Microsoft Points

Xbox original are Region locked I think so unless you have a US 360 be wary about picking one up.
