Re: I hate to ask...

Amazing ,fancy running out "48" hours after release ,the chances of that !


Strange thing is ,every 12 months i have the same problem

I often sit and scratch my head ,which in turn predominantly ends up with me scratching my bum , it's then and only then i realise i have a small black thing in my back pocket .."A wallet" ,i believe it's called

I then pull said object out (Wallet) open and find a small but magic card .."A credit card"

Then it's just a case of typing the magic cards numbers into the xbox ..and wham !!! i get live for a whole new year

There wasn't one in mine either?

Don't know why everyone is being so harsh to be honest, it's not as if you're a new member??!! Anyway, i've got a code you can have if you still need one, drop me a PM if so.

Sign seems to have a grudge because we have disagreed on a few things in the general chat area, So this was a chance it seems to try and poke fun at me.

Anyway thankyou to the people that were positive, I bought the game from CEX and it was not sealed hence the reason i don't seen to have a 48 hour code in it.

Re: I hate to ask...

I now have 12 months membership

Just needed the 48 hours card lastnight to cover me until this morning, Bit of a nightmare to get the game only to find no Xbox live.

Anyway once again thankyou to those that acted in a positive manner
