5 Stars 1600 Live points
Nothing much to say, it would be better if you receive the code via email instead of have to wait for the delivery and also waste paper for just a code.

5 Stars More points
Well, i don’t remember how many of this i bought so far, but there are so many good things to download at xbox live, that i’ll keep buying it.

4 Stars It is what it is….
It’s 1600 MS points. Spends the same as if you purchased them through XBL or Zune Marketplace. Now at the time I ordered this the instant code was not available. So I strongly urge you people to just purchase the instant redeemable code. Unless this is a gift I can’t see a reason not to. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because of the shipping. Seriously Something the size of a credit card should not have to be packaged inside it’s own blister pack and then again put into another box 4 times the size to be shipped out. It’s just wasteful. That’s really my only issue with Amazon’s shipping. But now since I can just purchase the code, I can save the time and S&H costs.

5 Stars Good Value
Purchased 1600 ms pts for a few add ons. Cheaper than the local store. Good value.

5 Stars Isnt much to review
You peel off the strip covering the code, enter the code in the marketplace, and your points are added. There isnt anything special here, the same goes for the 4000 points.

5 Stars You can get a lot of good games with this
Xbox live has a lot of good games, they often run sales too. These points won’t go to waste if you get this.

5 Stars ***WARNING***
since everyone pretty much listed the pro’s and con’s of this product i just want to warn you that be aware of who you are buying from on here for this product. for example, the newly launched seller XBLIVE is selling this for the cheapest price of $39.99 and in his comments he states that he will “EMAIL” the code on the back to you upon receipt of payment…heres a couple problems with this: for one, he charges $4.49 for shipping (wtf, how can you charge nearly $5 for an email, because he wont send you the product he will just email you the product code from the back for you to enter in) emails are free buddy! secondly, he is a newly/recently launched seller with no feedback i would be very cautious with buying from someone who doesn’t have feedback or ratings. thirdly, beware of the other sellers here to they mark there product down tons and then charge you crazy shipping like $8 for something that simply as thick as a piece of paper…thats BS! and last but not least, if you pay more the $40.00 after tax and shipping for this then please hit me up because i can tell you where to get it for $40.00 out the door (and no i dont work for best buy, gamestop, gamecrazy, target, walmart and etc) im in the military and im just a concerned buyer like the rest

have not been able to use yet. since my son wants it to be wireless, I need to purchase a network adaptor for add $70-100 dollars. The wireless adapator we have is “not” compatible with xbox, you can only use one made by microsoft, unless your are very technical and can rig something else up. will update once we obtain network adaptor.

5 Stars Get a free month
Like most of the other reviews, I’ll just say this is exactly what you expect it to be, Xbox live Gold for 12 months and a free month. Glad to get the extra month, and it only takes a couple days for Amazon to deliver it with free shipping.

5 Stars Great Investment
Easily the best choice for any xbox live members.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Excellent, better than expected…
I plugged these bad boys in and started playing a game with my user playlist in the background. These are a hell of a pair of headphones. The sound was crisp, the bass was lovely and I was immediately satisfied with my purchase. After that trial, I decided to play a game of Gears 2 Horde mode. I heard every blast, snarl, step, etc. from every angle, it felt like I was actually there. Amazing. On one of the levels I could even hear the frogs as if they were right next to me. I was going to get the X4′s at first, but I’m happy I downgraded at the last minute and saved myself the $80. There are people complaining about a hiss noise, but like any pair of sneakers, that problem is easily solved by turning the volume down to a reasonable level. The only problem I see is that there are tons of cords, It’s not a problem for me b/c of how I have my set up, but I can see how it would be a problem for others.

I recommend these headphones 100%

For gaming. For music listening. For life.

4 Stars good
I love the headset, but the long cord is easy to trip over. Ours is broken already it pulled loose from the headset and now have trouble hearing.

3 Stars Awesome sound quality, Great mic, but still has a couple major flaws.
Got this great headset for christmas, and was amazed. First of all, these are the most comfortable speakers of any kind i have ever worn on my head. padding everywhere, everything just fits perfectly. Now for sound. Left 4 Dead, (by the way, a fantastic must-have) was taken to a new level with constant, loud surround sound. Bose over-ear headphones, you know, the $300 ones? this thing kicks Bose’s @$$. Seriously.

>2 days later<

After a while of playing, i drop the headset from about 1 foot off my carpet flooring, and it hits my spare xbox controller. no biggie with the cheap little one-speaker mic the xbox comes with, but with the beefy $50 dollar X1s? THE LEFT SPEAKER FREAKIN FALLS OFF!! That should NOT HAPPEN!!

In summary, here we have the..

Pros:

-extremely comfortable, even through hours of playing

-perfectly tuned sound

-crystal clear mic

-runs on power from the xbox (no replacing batteries)

Cons:

-can be hard to hear voice chat on xbox live when game volume is loud

Really important cons:

-NOT FOR USE WITH THE PLUG AND PLAY CHARGE KIT THING!!!! USE WIRED CONTROLLER, AAs, OR ALWAYS HAVE A BATTERY CHARGED AND READY!!!! (theres a loud, annoying buzzing noise unless you do that)

-BREAKS EASILY!!!! 2, 2mm plastic prongs hold each speaker on to the rest of the headset, and the whole thing is useless with a speaker just dangling from the side!! BE CAREFUL!!!

and by the way, turtle beach’s help and support service is… pretty much nonexistent.

–[...]

edit: ps: if the speaker falls off yours, (and the wiring is still good) strong superglue over the entire joint there fixes it very well. Still, though, that should NOT HAPPEN!!!

4 Stars Great headset for the price
This is definetely one of the best headsets you can get for the xbox 360 and pc. Yes, it can work for both your xbox and your computer games. I love to play call of duty 4 with this headset because it allows you to hear your enemies way before they can see or hear you. Great advantage for those contests where every edge counts. The only nusiance is the wire its only one really long wire. Sometimes it gets tangled up and annoys me but it definetely worth it because there are reports that the wireless ones make a buzzing sound and they require batteries. I highly recommend this headset to everyone looking to play with an edge and without disturbing others like you parents in my case.

3 Stars Ear Force X1 wired headphones works great with XBox 360, but not at all with my Vista laptop
Positive:

- Very long cords

- Works great with my XBox 360

- Has inline hookups so that you can still play audio through your speakers and headphones at the same time. This is only a benefit if you are playing alone because if you playing with others on XBox Live, you will have the headphones on.

Negative

- Doesn’t work at all with my Vista laptop (Dell Precision M90). I thought I might be able to get rid of my USB Logitech headphones and use only this product, but that didn’t work out. Now, I still have two sets of headphones.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Works great
I got this controller today, and it’s the best controller I’ve ever bought. The wireless lets me put my PC on my HDTV and play games from afar instead of being stuck with a short cable. It’s very responsive and there is no delay. Although many people here reported having problems with conflicting wireless devices, I’m using this with a wireless Microsoft mouse and they have no conflicts (I’m also using the 1.1 drivers from Microsoft’s website, not the drivers from the CD that came with it). Many games work great with this and the integrated support that’s already in newer games like Crysis, Left 4 Dead, and GTA IV is just going to get better. It’s extremely comfortable and it fits right in your hand. The combination of two shoulder triggers and two shoulder buttons is genius and it integrates with any game perfectly.

My only problem with this is that the only way to power it down is to let it turn itself off after a time of inactivity or taking out the battery. It would be nice if it powered off like a regular 360 controller hooked up to a 360, but it doesn’t bug me too much.

Either way, this is a great controller, and if you want to go wireless, this is an excellent solution.

5 Stars If you hate playing with the keyboard and mouse. This is for you.
I play alot of shooting and role playing games from windows. This controller save me the hassle of changing my settings on the keybroad to my liking. it’s simple to use too. if you have vista you might don’t have to install the software. i got lucky and didn’t need too. you can also use this controller with your xbox as well. two things for the price of one, you can’t beat that.

3 Stars Meh
The game is pretty good, but it took a long time to be shipped even though I did free 2day shipping it took over a weak and I was charged $3 for shipping, so I wouldn’t go with the company that sent me the game.

4 Stars Works as advertised
Installed on a 32-bit XP system. Have to use 3rd party software for some games, but otherwise works perfectly. Switches b/w xbox and pc. Battery life is dubious, but I picked up some Sanyo rechargeable here on Amz and they’ve taken away most of my headaches.

This thing is more solid than most el cheapo game pads I’ve used. Worth ponying up the extra $15+ to know that it can take some abuse.

Dongle is retarded, and I’m not entirely convinced that you can’t just buy the dongle (~ $18 on amz) and use an existing xbox controller (if you have one), but don’t quote me on that.

Have not tried in Vista or xp x64 yet.

5 Stars Wireless, Flawless Gaming
This product comes with an Official XBOX 360 Wireless Controller, Driver DVD, and a 5 foot long USB Receiver.

PROS: Many options with the Xbox 360 controller for controls

WIRELESS! It’s every gamers dream to own the best controller on the market

CONS: Why five feet long for the USB receiver? the size of a USB Flash Drive is all I need (or anyone for that matter); My controller doesn’t turn off, so I have to uninstall the battery back and clip it back in for the controller to stay off (I already tried push and hold the XBOX button down to turn it off and it didn’t work)

A little bit more for your information, this controller does NOT have *OFFICIAL* drivers to work on mac, so you will have to look up third-party developers’ MAC drivers for the xbox 360 controller (and they work too, trust me). Overall, I don’t see why anyone would need a $100 controller to play their games. PS3 and XBOX 360 use controllers just like these (in terms of size) and deliver a fantastic experience.

You’d be doing yourself injustice to pass this controller up.
