Is there any way to buy a certain amount of Mircosoft points? I know its some clever business ploy to sell games for 800 micrsoft points but only sell them in increments of 500, 1000, etc. but i only need 200 points.

Actually there is a much better way.

Download the zune software and link your gamertag with it. Through the zune program you can buy points 400 - $5, 1200 - $15...and so on. It's MUCH better than having random points left over after buying an 800pt arcade game.

I do it this way all the time. Although i'm sure you can download the program without owning a zune i'm not sure about installing it and making it work. It's worth a shot though.

If you do get it to work just click your GT at the top of the window, go into "my account" and "buy microsoft points". It will open your browser with the point options and prices.

You can always use a credit card, that's if you have one.

There's things like MS Generators but thats all bull.

I needa buy MS points so i can change my gamertag and maybe Pub games for fable II.

But yeah your best bet is that Zune Software thing, never heard of it but if it's true then by all means.
