ya i think its great that bungie is doing that!
but why does he get his stuff back but i dont get mine?!
So, if you donate your time to one good cause or charity, do you think that it would be right for people to say "that doesn't mean anything unless you do it full time! (or for every charity, or for ME!)" Don't you think that because you do something nice or good, that it shouldn't be hassled for "not being enough, or what about my share?"
If you had a console that had autographs on it, sent it in for service, took all of the steps and got all of the reassurances that this young man did, and then got a different case cover back or the same case cover completely erased.... even if all of those things happened identically.... I don't recall hearing about your story. In other words, you didn't have as good press. Sorry.
This one incident should serve as a warning to anyone who has one of a kind artwork on something that they may have to send to the factory. The fact that this individual was able to get the problem noticed by lots of others, that is (maybe) the contribution and the extra step which got him some replacement signatures and artwork on his console.
Personally, I would hope that he has the work done on a removable skin or an empty case cover. Because if he is using that 360, then it is at risk of failing.
i completely understand what your saying.
all im saying is, i dont think someone should get a special treatment just because something on there box was erased.
if i would have known i could do something like this young man did, i would have. but my knowledge at the time was that Microsoft erased it so its gone for good.
he is getting special treatment because he won or whatever that xbox from bungie. i think i even remember the contest. then microsoft screwed it up, but really, whos surprised here. Its called taking care of your fanbase. They have the generosity to give out something like that, and they care about their fans an awful lot, so they're going to back up their stuff if something like this happens. I'm sure your "sick graffiti art" wasn't a prize in a contest from a developer, or anything like that, so your case isn't as valid as this kid. This was a one-of-a-kind, one-time deal...how many people can say they have an xbox with all of bungie's autographs? 1.
if you got your "sick graffiti art" from a game developer, go to them and tell them, maybe they'll be cool, or maybe they'll think you're mooching. There is no sense complaining about not getting special treatment since your case really isn't as special as his.
i didnt know it was a contest.
and im sure no one els has the staff autographs.
but no one had my graffiti art work that i had.
and no it wasnt won in a contest or anything like that.
it was drawn on there by a close friend of my who passed away. and microsoft erased it.
