Cool Gonna Get This As Soon Is At Comes Out Hopefully ! :D

This is great for people who don't already own it, but what about the people who already have it, like my friend? Are they just SOL?

Oh right. But still, why should they have to call Microsoft's chocolatety support just to get what basically amounts to an insincere apology? They should have just given us all some points to buy a game of our choice.

Is that 8:00 AM or PM?

Does it really matter if the offer lasts 5 days long?

Because, they wanted to give a game away that would be least likely to be downloaded, more than likely.  That would mean, an expensive game (800 is expensive for MP), a non-classic (like Sonic, Mortal Kombat, etc), and probably a few other criteria they thought about.  IDK, maybe I was looking into this too much, but either way...

I think I misunderstood...

About what? :P
I'm excited to see how the game is, I think it has got some pretty good reviews. But then again, I've heard people saying it's poo poo.
Has anyone here tried the game?
