You had me until you said "disgusting discrimination".
Discrimination is disgusting. Anyway, I'm not having a go at Bungie. The true enemy here is Microsoft.
No -blam!- mate, why the hell are you posting it here? Maybe if you guys were a bit patient you'd get some news. When it is confirmed in the UK....well, I think the americans will deserve an apology. And I don't think you can call a country not getting a pre order bonus for a video game disgusting discrimination.
I think you need to calm down, sir, as do perhaps a few other people here, and I mean that with no disrespect.
I'm confident that Bungie will be trying to sort this out for us - we're a huge community of loyal fans and I'm sure they want to keep us for many years to come. Be less pessimistic and remember that the status of Johnson in the UK is unconfirmed. I suggest we just be patient until Urk (heroicly) returns with news of which stores we can go to, or at least that's what I hope is going to happen.
There's just one ugly opinion I can't help but respond to though... some critics' (I won't embarrass them) have said how we shouldn't care about a "simple re-skin code" or be "whining" about not getting it. But you underestimate the value of this, the fact that its being offered in the first place, to some, is enough reason for us, or any other country to receive it. Personally, I look forward to playing as both Johnson (assuming we'll get him) and ODSTs.
In the mean-time I'm going to eat scones and drink tea, where the trumpets sound in merry little old England.
Im sorry that I got a little angry. It just seemed like every single thread on the forums was complaining...
However,a lot of people here overeacted. A country not getting a reskin code is not disgusting discrimination. Disgusting discrimination is slavery or the holocaust. Thats what really made me angry. I don't think that Europe doesn't deserve Johnson-deserve is not the right word, but I'm tired and can't find another. Again, many people overreacted and some of the stuff they said was offensive to the americans. I am sorry for those who were rude, but there are people like that in every country. I think that maybe an apology from the OP is in order to the americans and to Bungie. However, Johnson is now confirmed for Europe, so lets not fight any longer.
