I bought my microsoft points from gamers hideout.. I have no problem downloading arcade games and indie games but when it comes to full xbox 360 games, example: Oblivion, fallout 3, red dead redemption, etc.. I can't download any of them.. so far only these three xbox 360 games that I found can be downloaded using the MS points that I bought. Dead rising mortal combat vs DC Rayman raving rabbits is it because I'm from malaysia? and the game isn't available here? is there any way to bypass this? maybe.. using MS points from the USA region? there's this guy selling USA MS points and I really wanted to buy from him, if it can download xbox games on demand. here's the link to his thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...=40&p=39183788&This post has been edited by PartyPooper: Jan 10 2011, 01:33 PM

certain games/DLC are region locked... they'll detect your IP and if your IP is not from US, then they'll stop u from buying it
one way to buy those XBL region locked games/DLC from US is via VPN
using a US VPN, XBL will register you're using a US IP, hence allow u to purchase those games/DLCs

P.S as far as I know, all Arcade games and Indie games should be able to download using microsoft points no matter where you live Arcade games that I've downloaded: 1.monkey island 1 2.monkey island 2 3.crazy taxi 4.bomberman indie games: alien hunter.
