View Full Version : 512MB Xbox 360 w/Worms

A few weeks ago, I picked up an 8x 512MB Xbox 360 memory card. It was only $10 and I always wanted it, so I decided to pick it up.

But I noticed that this version has a sticker that says that "Worms" is included with the card.

I decided to check online, and I could only find the 512MB card but without the game.

So my questions are:

1)Is this particular version worth anything?

2)Is the game inside the card? Inside a CD (inside the packaging)? As a download code?

3)Is it even worth opening the packaging? Now that I can save using USB or at least backup my data, should it be kept sealed, just in case?

Thanks in advance!

Oh yeah, here is a picture of the memory card and it's packaging (as well as the 'sticker'):

EDIT: Decided to check again on Ebay, and there are a few at $19, $16, and $28. Still, only three entries were shown while the rest did not contain the "Worms" game. So I guess this version is slightly harder to find?

It's just a free full game that is on the card itself. When I got my card it came with GeoWars preloaded. Worms was the second 'free-be' that they tossed onto the cards.

I can't tell you what to do with the card, but I use mine to move my profile about on occasion when I need to play it at someplace other than my house.

It just happens that there were a lot more mem cards sold at the time the Worms freebie was going on. Most folks picked them up to use with Arcade systems, which is why most that you see on eBay don't have it. Those units are the last of their kind, but don't think they'll ever really be worth much of anything.

I just got this memory card(with Worms included) at Target on clearance for $7.48 a few weeks ago. It isn't worth anything special and like most sealed PS1, PS2, N64, Dreamcast and original Xbox memory cards--this one most likely won't ever be worth more than $20 or so.

Joke opportunity thoroughly wasted :(

I assume that someday folks will be looking for the game code on these cards, so...y'never know. Wouldn't make much sense to hoard a $5 memory card in hopes of it becoming OMG RARE!1 someday though, I think, especially since it's just an accessory. In terms of an investment that money is better locked up in something else.

Game code on the card. Couldn't someone who knows what they are doing use that to boot a backup game? Is that what you meant?
