First India gets Xbox Live before us and now they are getting a credit card as well!
What, you may ask, is an Xbox 360 credit card? Well, Videogaming247 reports that Microsoft made a plan with ICICI Bank “to enable customers to enjoy the benefits of Digital Entertainment products”. The 360 Visa card will enable cardholders to get enjoy discounts on Xbox 360, Kodak and Samsung products.
You wanna buy an HDTV? Buy a Samsung, swipe your bling card and you will get a discount on the product, certain products look to have special discounts when bought with the card such as Dead or Alive 4, Gears of War and Dead Rising, which will sell for 15% cheaper when using the MS card.
That’s really great for people who live in India, a credit card. So … ummmm, can we please have Xbox live now?

and yet we seem to have more people connected to Live… maybe Microsoft need to start realising that it’s not all about the size

Your comments are starting to make sense, just use some punctuation and then maybe you can finally put together a propper sentence.

I still don’t see what the big issue is. Just drop in SA Locale support and problem solved. Yes, it won’t be the full experience of a local server. So what, we happily playing on Live anyway. Just call it Live Lite and charge us less for it. (like R30pm) we won’t complain.
(ok they could make Live Lite FREE, but this is MS we talking about)
