It turns out that I could not, in fact, save up enough in Xbox Credits to purchase Zoo Tycoon. I was at about $48 at one point, now I am down to $5 (with a Bing $3 credit yet to be redeemed). I guess I could win the Bing $500 Xbox credit sweepstakes (yeah right). My last expenditures were on The Walking Dead 400 Days and Forza Horizon (Games on Demand).
I originally bought Forza Horizon on Black Friday for $15, I traded it in to GameStop for $22 and repurchased it for $15. So, I essentially bought the game for $8. Now if only the stupid Rally Pack would finally go on sale ($20 after a year or so is too high, especially with all the $15 sales last year). Hopefully my Forza Rewards stuff is still downloadable for that game.
Maybe I should just go looking for Zoo Tycoon at Walmart if I go there again on Black Friday (possible).
So, in non-Xbox news (well Xbox on Windows 8), Xbox/MSFT Credit is now one of the purchase options in Windows 8.1. Finally.......
That means you can now use Xbox point cards (that will be made into MSFT credits) and pay for Windows Store Apps. It is about time.
