    I don't know what to think about Xbox/M$, they have gotten greedy. It's not about bringing the games to the everyone, but trying to make $$$ every chance they get.

    Before my daughter and 2 grandchildren moved two states away to live with me, my grandchildren had an XBox. Their worthless convicted Felon "sperm donor" stole their XBox, the games, TVs, and chrome books and pawned it all!! He even stole their money! Me, their mimi, bought them a new XBox and some games for Christmas. It makes me happy to know they're happy!!

    Kind of hard to figure out how to add it to your Microsoft account and the code is long (like 25 characters so it takes a while to type in) but worth it
