I usually use MS POints to get a movie every once in awhile and maybe some tv shows. Ive also bought some NFL gamerpics. Buying anything else is basically a waste.

I have never spent any, but probably will soon. (Possibly Bomberman Live, TMNT arcade, or streets of rage). If Mass Effect comes out with any episodic content like promised it will most likely cost money so I may buy that if i thinks its worth it, also I plan on having to spend money on new maps for COD4- hopefully no more than 5 dollars. I would rent movies if I wasn't so obsessed with buying DVDs, same with buying TV shows. I don't think they are over priced though, they cost about the same as renting a new release from blockbuster, and buying TV shows on iTunes cost 2 dollars as well. But many things on market place are a rip off (horse armor in oblivion comes to mind, and pretty much anything EA puts up).

I don't normally spend M$ points.

because theres **** all on the ****ing marketplace over here.

SWOS is out this week so i'll probably snap that up.

I agree with shane on the whole buying extra stuff for a game i've already payed for, i dont understand it like.

Lately it's been in spurts. There are occasions where there is a lull in new Marketplace content. During those times I save my points are wait for new releases. I don't buy Arcade games I stick with movies and televisions shows for the most part.

Never bought anything with MS points. I just don't see anything really worth buying.

I love buying things with the points, even just renting a movie or 2 is cool. Xbox LIVE originals and just random game add-ons.

In total throughout my two years I believe I have spent like 4000 points maybe? I bought a few arcade games and content for Oblivion and I believe that's it? I have 400 points sitting on my account right now and they have been there since puzzle quest came out because it was 1200 points.
