Forums - Microsoft - MS says sorry for XBL probs. Gives Undertow away for free

RSEagle on 18 January 2008

A lot of people are complaining that Microsoft didn't give away Microsoft points instead. I think people should appreciate that Microsoft chooses to give away free games at all, you don't see Sony or Nintendo offering free deals like this. Besides, they could have given out a crappy game like Spongebob Underpants Slam or nothing at all.

RSEagle, please don't hate on Spongebob ... that fool rocks ... but I wonder what will happen for folks that already bought Undertow?

Nice PR move, Microsoft.



There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

 Spongebob, oddly enough, only sounds reasonable in english. When I see the Norwegian dub, I can't help but laugh, it sounds utterly ridiculous!

Free points would have been better, but a good game choice, good thing I never bought it...

Off topic, but XBLA related, how is Omega Five? Demo was microscopic and reviews are all over the place, but I badly want it to be good, anyone know?

Thanks in advance.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!
