MS Points Glitch Gives Users Extra Points

By Joshua Spudic

Here is something that seems out of the ordinary. Some Xbox Live users may have noticed that they obtained a generous amount of Microsoft Points. Some decided to go on an Xbox spending spree. Some decided to notify XboxSupport about the glitch on Twitter.

At first, the guys over at XboxSupport didn’t mind. They were in a state of generosity when they first messaged on the situation. Even one message revealed that they were allowing the users to keep the points after their honesty.

However, the attitude swung to the other side of the pendulum as another message was released; notifying users that any points received due to the glitch were being retracted from said users. Well isn’t that rude. They reward them for their honesty and then decide that they can’t have them anymore? Strange.

Josh is the name, writing is my game... well my degree will say that. But, when uni gets me down (and it does), there is no better way that to grab a chair, sit back and slicing up some DarkspawnI started my gaming interest back in the good old 16 bit era with the Sega Mega Drive and Sonic The Hedgehog 2. I was roughly five years old. To this day I still try to fire up the dusty companion and speed through the wacky and bright levels, jumping on some Badniks, collecting those damn Chaos Emeralds. Then I moved onto Sony's disk based console the Playstation (thanks to my uncle). Since then I have picked up each of Sony's consoles from the 5th to current generation that has been released in Australia (with more to come).In terms of writing about games, I am quite new to the field. I started out late last year with my own blog before deciding to move to greener pastures. I have written a few reviews for the Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable. Features as well. I hope I can flex my muscles while writing with Capsule Computers.If I'm not gaming, however, I'm writing narratives. I am currently trying to kickstart a high fantasy novel (which, hopefully, turns into a complex RPG) that I want done in five years or so. My passion of writing has been there for a long time and has flourished as I grew. I'm into the fantasy genre, both games and novels, and thoroughly enjoy a deep and complex RPG, whether it comes from the East or West.Oh and anime is awesome!
