Support NeoGAF

[Gestault]

That's a pretty graceful way to deal with it, frankly.

 

[TheAdmiester]

Is it just me that thinks giving the money is an odd but good thing for MS to do? They could easily have just taken the download away and mentioned something like how it was "wrong" to do, yet they've given people $10 for it lol.

 

[DJ Lushious]

disgusting, this truly is the end of microsoft isnt it? This is how they die

You should write Hollywood scripts, because your ability to write drama is unprecedented.

I, too, just received the $10 message. I'll happily take it. Ori and the Blind Forest, here I come!

 

[Geist-]

Just got the message from Xbox that they are revoking it and giving me $10 by the end of June.



Wonder if they can really do anything if you have already downloaded it and you keep your console disconnected.

Got the message too. Oh well, my box is offline, let's see how long I can go.

 

[operon]

Got the message. No problem thans Microsoft for the ten dollars it's the least I could expect for this will use it for something

 

[Chris1]

Just came to say I got the message as well. Good on them for the $10. Didn't have to do anything and they still did something.

Yep can't really complain lol.

Thanks OP for the free $10

 

[Nintenleo]

Didn't care for Fallout 4, 10 free bucks to spend are way better for me Thanks OP

 

[JayEH]

Wow. I'm surprised they're giving everyone 10 bucks. Good guy Microsoft.

 

[Okingjrr]

Guess I can free up the disk space for more games I'm not going to play.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Got the message. I'll see if I can still play it in a sec.

 

[Gator86]

disgusting, this truly is the end of microsoft isnt it? This is how they die

I honestly can't tell if this is sarcasm or not.

 

[SpideySenses]

Fallout price glitch on PSN: Free theme
Fallout price glitch on XBL: $10

Xbox owners got the better deal there.

 

[iBlue]

Got the message. At least we are getting $10 dollars which i will use towards cup head

 

[Kurt Angle]

I got 10$

I didn't even want fallout 😂

 

[Rocketz]

Fine by me. I'm way too into Overwatxh to even play it anyway. Thanks for the $10 MS.

 

[Rembrandt]

Cool. Thanks for the unnecessary $10. Good gesture.

 

[Talesofedna]

Mine got revoked and no longer works. I got the message less than a minute ago. I'm happy since I get $10 and I didn't even really want it on Xbone since I already own it all on ps4, I just got it on xbone to see if it worked lol

 

[RoKKeR]

I'll take the $10, not a bad way to solve the issue. You knew they weren't going to let people keep licenses.

 

[Card Boy]

Got the message too. Oh well, my box is offline, let's see how long I can go.

how long can you go in offline mode? I'm sorta thinking of offlining it for a month or two now.

 

[statham]

Sweet, free money.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Never intended to play it. Thanks for the free money.

 

[witness]

Got the message. Loaded the game, which I legit bought last year and my free season pass still works....hmmmm

 

[NoLongerALurker]

$10 for their fuck up? Hell yeah! Thanks OP

 

[ThePsydeFX]

Got to test the mods out at least before the PS4 release. That plus $10 is not a bad deal on my part.

 

[malfcn]

Ditto.

 

[Celestial Mortal]

Got the message as well. Wasn't really all interested in playing fallout 4 so getting the $10 is a plus.

 

[Bessy67]

Nice of MS. I was just expecting to have the game get taken away and get nothing in return, and I would have been fine with that.

 

[Rembrandt]

For the message. Loaded the game, which I legit bought last year and my free season pass still works....hmmmm

If so, aye. I'm gonna load it up in a minute and see if I got to keep mine.

 

[KAP151]

Gone.

Got this while playing Witcher.

 

[Matriox]

Bummer. Bet it revokes the season pass too eh?

 

[jet1911]

Got the message but I can still play. I guess that if I don't close the game or the console I'll be able to play a bit more?

 

[Stormwatch]

Crap, I should have played when I had the chance. I was kinda hoping to use it as a demo to see if I wanted to play the full game.

 

[Malo]

Looks like I'm buying loot boxes.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

What if Fallout 4 only costs $10 for their E3 deal?

 

[jinxthejiv]

Welp they are revoking the licenses I believe. I just received this message from Xbox:

Our Pricing error on Fallout 4 has been fixed and your free download will no Longer work. For the inconvenience we will deposit $10 by the end of June in your Microsoft Account. This expires one year from the time it was deposited

 

[NullMoon]

Got the Message too. However, my Digital Delxue Copy stil works. The hell?

 

[Chris1]

Got the message but I can still play. I guess that if I don't close the game or the console I'll be able to play a bit more?

Plot Twist: MS is actually giving it to all of us for free and is trying to weedle their way out of paying Bethesda by pretending they revoked it

Good guy MS sticking up for us

 

[Kadin]

Got the Message too. However, my Digital Delxue Copy stil works. The hell?

I imagine the revoking of the game is gonna happen in waves. Enjoy it while you can.

 

[ss_lemonade]

Was expecting them to revoke. Wasn't expecting the credit though, that's cool.

So what happens if your xbox one isn't powered on and/or disconnected from the internet?

 

[darkinstinct]

I wonder wether they simply can't revoke your license if you already own the game physically. Or it takes time to revoke all licenses and now I just lucked out (went offline the second that message came).

 

[Okingjrr]

I'll check in the morning to see if I can still play. I'll take my box offline to play a little.

 

[jinxthejiv]

Im still able to play all the Dlc though. I only downloaded the season pass.

 

[lovely ladies]

I would rather have the $10 than Fallout 4 lol. I was never gonna play that game.

 

[Arby 'n' the Chief]

happy I got the $10

wasn't gonna finish fallout 4 in probably long time seeing I still have 3 and new vegas to finish. I can buy it super cheap some time down the road

 

[Kadin]

I wonder wether they simply can't revoke your license if you already own the game physically. Or it takes time to revoke all licenses and now I just lucked out (went offline the second that message came).

I already owned the game digitally but downloaded the Deluxe Edition because I didn't think and just download the Season Pass instead. If I load up the base game and it no longer works, that's gonna be a fun phone call... lol

 

[NullMoon]

I imagine the revoking of the game is gonna happen in waves. Enjoy it while you can.

Probably right, still have a physical copy but now my save will be unusable. Oh, well. got to play the First DLC and damn was it terrible. Good thing I didn't pick up the season pass before they upped the price.

 

[SpasilliumX11]

.

 

[LelouchZero]

Plot Twist: The $10 is taken from your bank account and put onto your Xbox Live account.

I'm just kidding!

 

[darkinstinct]

Probably right, still have a physical copy but now my save will be unusable. Oh, well. got to play the First DLC and damn was it terrible. Good thing I didn't pick up the season pass when before they upped the price.

You only have one save?

 

[evanswolves]

That was nice of them even nicer if $10 = £10
