I am just trying to spend what’s in my Microsoft account.

The microsoft store a couple of days ago had issues where many people couldn't buy anything. Two or three days ago I bought a new game. Everything was fine, went to see how much money was left in my balance. The original amount was still there. I checked
my microsoft account order history, it said the money was taken out. I fixed the problem by going to the microsoft store and changing payment option. When my balance showed up it then had the correct amount. Yes that dosenn't help with your problem. Just
letting you know the store has a few bugs lol. Hopefully they update it soon.

Thanks for the reply! I just bought the game on amazon. I ended up spending less so it’s whatever. I will leave this discussion open so if anyone replies with other advice they can get help

Nah dude i am good... I am just ready to spend money... you would think i am sick of spending money considering that is what my job is... Purchasing agent....

Oh well..

I've never once waited an hour to play a game on day one. Most early games had installs but many don't anymore. As far as patches and such they can be exited out of and the game played right away off line. Again, the most I've waited for a patch is ten minutes.
I have ps+ so all of that stuff downloads itself. As of January 1st 2009 trophies have been mandatory and psn function has been since day one to the best of my knowledge. The hard drive stuff doesn't matter when it comes to ps3 due to the fact that every system
released has had a hard drive since launch. Kevin butler is a work of fiction, played by the actor Jeremy lambert whom has been in multiple commercials and tv series'. Major Nelson is an employee of Microsoft and is not their pitchman.

Most things can be made to work with sufficient funding !
