Bought My First XBOX Indie Games Ever

July 31 was the last day that anyone could earn rewards points on XBOX Live. I had four accounts that could still earn 100 MSP (Microsoft Points) each for buying XBOX Live content for the first time. I decided that I would buy my first Indie games, one game priced at 80 MSP (worth $1) for each account so I could get 100 MSP back.

I bought Final Rift, Murder Miners, and Brimstone. My Australian account couldn't buy any Indie game because it seems that the Australian marketplace doesn't have Indie games. I had to buy 80 MSP/$1 DLC of some game. Bastion had the only $1 DLC that added actual game content that extended play time so I bought it for my Australian account.

A few minutes before the day would be over, I noticed that one of my accounts that I thought didn't have enough MSP, had enough, so I tried to buy Red Invasion: TD Blitzkrieg before the day was over. Unfortunately, I may have been too late but I'll know in a week if I see an extra 100 MSP in each account.
