    Whats the difference between the premium and non premium knothole island



    I just got the game and saw that they already have DLC for it. What I am wondering is why there is a premium and non-premium version of the island. Whats the difference? Is it worth 800 points?

    I don't know for sure, but I think the non-premium only allows you to access it through co-op with a player that has premium. In other words I don't know that it adds anything to your game, but given the opportunity to co-op with someone that has bought the premium it allows you to game with their content.

    Right. The free DLC basically lets you play co-op with people who buy the knothole island DLC. However, you can't play the knothole island part with them. Bascailly it is a fix to let you still play with people co-op who have knothole island if you do not get it.

    Ah thanks. I don't plan on playing this co-op much so I guess I need to shell out the 800 points, how many actual dollars that is. Man I hate X-box points.

    800 Points = $10

    Me too! On theposts-not-read page, it only had "Whats the difference between the premium and non premiuim knothole" which didn't read too well at all. I expected to look in here and see as the first reply "premium=no splinters".

    Yeah but I can't just buy 800 points, I need to be 1000 which is BS. Wii does the same thing, I guess Sony is the only one that just charges you cash money and doesn't try to scam a little extra cash out of you. Sorry for the rant, just irrates me

    They sell 800 point cards in stores now, don't they?

    Yes, you can buy 800 point cards in stores now, but I've not seen a lot of them around. Mostly I find the 1600 Points ($20) and 4000 Point ($50 cards).


    Amazon.com is still selling Microsoft Points at a reduced price but they don't have the 800 point cards.
