They should have something like that in the US. Only have it be a real CC, and every time you use it, you get a littlke credit towards your annual Xbox Live fee. Or maybe you earn free microtransactions?

I'm THERE!

Personally I'm 23 and have made it through college without a credit card. I really detest the concept and don't want one. Quite frankly my debit card (which I admittedly use all the time for pretty much anything over $5, meaning I only need to carry $20 cash for the rare cash-only purchase) does a much better job. Rather than incurring rotating debt the money just comes out. Combined with auto-paying bills and direct deposited paychecks I never really need to handle currency and my checkbook is a long-forgotten waste (in 6 years I've used just over 1 book of checks).

In my opinion if you can't afford it when you buy it, you can't afford it at all. Credit is evil.

Credit is not evil, if you pay your balance every month.

It's really fun when you earn 1%-5% cash back on all your purchases. It's like making money off of the credit card companies.

It's great! :-)

do you planning a car or a house #2? suprise! those among other things are considered a debt, much like a credit card. unless of course you can pay cash for it...

Odd move by Microsoft.

The XBOX is lagging in third place in Germany, that coupled with countries apathy toward CC's makes this seem like a bit of a stupid move.

Then again I'm not on a enourmous paycheck studying the feasability of such a venture...
