Absolutely. No more undue prominence to sloppy journalism please.

You've got to fill in the details of the 'new' card every time you want to buy points? Sounds a tad annoying.

No, its there on a list alongside the 'old' card. I think you just select 'a different card' and do it from there. Could be annoying, but not too bad for me (yet).

I think both will end up being left open for now, as they're both getting new posts.

Hello. New here.

Been a fan of LS since around 2000 when I found a review of Llamatron on a shmup site.

Anyhoo, it's good I happen to have 600 MSPs on my account and I'm pleased SG is coming out so soon.

Cheers..

Right. I just always, always hit the A button too damn quick & choose the old card. No way to get rid of the vermin!

Should be a way to kill the old credit card on the accounts page of xbox.com.

The interface on there is better than trying to do it on the box itself.

Confirmed by MJ, who does the same over the price as pretty much every other 'news source':

Hello there Joe!

Glad you'll be joining the SG massive. I hope you'll stick around.

Your avatar is FANTASTIC, by the way! My namesake!

. . . never call me Jack or James. . . .

@PVB - I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but your current avatar and that greeting were made for each other.

Nope, tried that too.
