Travis is a regular guy who just happened to be at the right restaurant in San Francisco one evening last week. Looking up from his dinner table that fateful night, he spotted the Croal dreadlocks. He noticed Kim and thought he looked kind of familiar, somewhat Microsoft-related. He knew exactly who Crecente was.
Travis took action. He walked up to us. Interrupted us. Tried to figure out who we all were. Wanted to know, kindly, what we were all doing there.
We stonewalled. But I said, “Travis, you’re standing in front of two of the top guys involved in Xbox gaming. If you could make any request, what would you like to ask of them?”
And he made the following request of Shane Kim…
Travis asked Kim if Microsoft could please drop the Xbox marketplace points system. He said he wanted to pay real money for his downloadable Xbox 360 content.
Kim took Travis’ two cents (or is that 10 MS points?) under advisement.
I think everyone else was ready for Travis to end his visit, but I wanted one more piece of feedback from him. He was standing in front of Tsunoda, a man in charge of the “Gears of War” franchise. Surely, I suggested, he should seize this opportunity to make a request for that series.
Travis’ request: more color.
Ah!...
That's awesome...
What would you say/ask if you ran into Shane Kim ?
