I have been given 3000 Microsoft points by Microsoft.

I have been looking around the games for windows live marketplace. The selection of games is pretty small and the prices are not great. Those points work out at roughly equivalent to £25 to spend.

Any advice on what I should buy? Do they have much in the way of sales? Should I hold onto the points?
 
Still got ALL these points. Not spotted anything worth spending them on.

Still in shock at Crysis2 being £59.99 on Marketplace at the moment.
 
OK - just got Flight Simulator X which is on sale this week for £9.99. That cost 1200 points leaving me with 1800.

I went to buy Gears of War but it came to 1840 points. The smallest number of points you can buy is 500 (which would leave me with 460 afterwards) Is there anyway to pay with points and cash? Can you transfer points to someone else? I just really don't want to be stuck with points I can't use.
 
I am all sorted on the movie front. I guess though that I can't add 40 points to my account?

It seems strange that £9.99 = 1200 points and £14.99 = 1840 points when really it should equal 1800 points.
