Hey guys. Two twerps that I have to buy gifts for have 360s, and I'm wondering which would be better? I'm not exactly sure of my budget but I don't really want to spend more than $20 each as I have 4 twerps in total. It sort of depends on how much it costs for me to go to Nintendo World and buy Piplup merch for one of them. Since she's not into Pokemon (as far as I know) but somehow likes piplup. Yeah, I don't get it either.

I'm looking up to see if there's any sales on them but so far I just see $12.49 for a 3 month Gold membership (apparently 50% off), and $19.99 for 1,600pts at GameStop. O_o I expected 2,000. Is it worth buying such a short sub? Are the points even on sale? Lol


If anyone's spotted any other deals please let me know. Thanks lots. :)

I'm totally going to say you should get a live subscription they cost more and give more AND with out it you can't use subscription points any way

Well it depends how long of a sub I can get for $20 XD But even if I didn't buy them a sub, their parents would pay for it anyways.

Depends on what's easier for them to get. For my brother, LIVE is usually more accessible, therefore I would get him points. Also, if their LIVE subscription is still running strong, points might be of more use to them now.

Unless there is an XBLA game or DLC that you know they are dying to have, save them some money and get them Live.
