B.Ob. Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Bungie Unscrews Previously Screwed Gamer "Exactly one week ago today I told the story of Nathaniel. Nathaniel had an Xbox 360 upon which he collected signatures and custom artwork from notable members of the gaming community. When the console broke, he called Xbox support and explained the situation. The phone representative assured him the artwork and signatures would be safe and sound during the repair process so Nathaniel hesitantly sent it on its way. When the console was returned to him, the case was clean. No artwork by Luke McKay, no Bungie signatures, no funny lines written by the Rooster Teeth Productions staff. Everything was gone. Because of the communication error between Microsoft’s phone support and their repair center, Nathaniel suffered a very tangible loss. People have speculated whether the case was “cleaned” or switched out. Perhaps Microsoft will uncover the truth during their investigation, perhaps not. The answer probably lies in one single employee and that employee only." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.Ob. Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 Microsoft Finally Makes Things Right What exactly was in this mysterious box that Microsoft wanted him to enjoy? Not a letter or an answer as to why his artwork and autographs were erased, but instead plenty of other stuff to make up for their mistake. Included in Microsoft’s big box of goodies were : - 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 - Xbox 360 CD Wallet - Signed picture of Bill Gates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
