And microsoft does the right

see what microsoft compensated
1 Xbox 360 console (signed by original RT signers, new artwork by Luke McKay, signatures from Xbox 360 team, additional signatures from Bungie Staff)
1 Xbox 360 faceplate (signed by Bill Gates, among others)
Devil May Cry 4
Lost Odyssey
Rainbow Six Vegas 2
Gears of War
Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom
2 ‘What’s Your Gamerscore?’ Bumperstickers

Infact, a couple of weeks before that, he got quite a lot of stuff from Bungie as well.

He loves his Xbox like I love my PC.....:D

My father wants me to get a new PC since 3 years but I'm refusing because I'll have to leave this then. I'm happy with my 7 year old PC. I love it like Nathaniel loves his Xbox......I love it because I've learnt everything about computers on it....:)
