[...] for free or get like a reward or something for the oldest usable Xbox). I am not asking for what Microsoft and Bungie did for that kid Nathaniel. Why that would be beyond amazing, I am not worth the effort. [...]

Also hidden deep within the sea of packing peanuts, Microsoft stowed a Cappuchin Monkey, specially trained to rig your 360 with the RROD, and equipped with a signature erasing cloth. It also signed for Bill Gates on the X-box.

this kid should be like bending on his knees catering to your every whim because if you didn’t publish this none of this would ever happen

Strangely, this worries me. I worry that Microsoft is using this as an oppurtunity to improve their PR; they give one gamer a Bill Gates signed Xbox 360, and people lay off Microsoft for a while when it comes to the whole RROD debacle. But I doubt much has changed internally, and I deeply respect Nathaniel for persisting with his goal that to 99% of us would have long been forgotten.

Here’s to hoping that something does change, however unlikely.

To all the people calling him an idiot,

God forbid he wants to send something to a company that PROMISED that his console would be taken care of and the case would remain the same as when he sent it. Seriously, if you guys took the time to read all the info on this stuff. You would of realized they told him it would be fine, and nothing would be ruined/gone. Somewhere there was a mistake, it happens, and they tried to make up for it. Also he didnt lose the memories of getting the signatures on his first system. He still has those, and now the memory of how he lost them, and how he was repaid for the hard loss.

Its great that microsoft and bungie care about players, they felt bad for the guy and gave him abunch of nice things to try and make him happy. It will never replace the original console in the story but atleast they did something for him insted of sending him a message that basicly said get over it like many other companies would of. This shows you Bungie would be the best group of people to control the world (Cant wait till they do so!) and microsoft will be good partners if they need back up.

This inspires me to get a new Xbox 360 and get it signed by people, only because im Jealous. First targets. MLG people!
