Just wanted to share with you guys this really awesome thing the Ryse team is doing for me. As some of you are already aware, I recently had to cancel my Xbox One pre-order due to a major loss in my family. This meant not just canceling my day one edition of the console itself, but also any games I pre-ordered along with it, Ryse being among them. I don't have to tell anyone here how excited I am about Ryse.

Well, to my complete surprise, today I get contacted by a Producer on the game, and in addition to offering up some very kind and much appreciated words for the loss in my family, they tell me that they're sending me a copy of the game, and a limited edition numbered run of a book based on the game. And if that wasn't already awesome enough as it is, they'll be putting their signatures on it also!

Here's a picture taken by the producer prior to the signatures.

Now, obviously this means a hell of a lot to me for the simple fact that I'm surprised just how considerate they were to take the time to even do this for me in the first place, but it means even more because I'm also a really big collector. The fact that they signed this for me is just amazing... I can't put it into words. I should also be getting it this Friday. It's being delivered by FedEx. I've already been provided with the tracking info.

So, in short, I thank you guys. I really appreciate this. You guys kick ass! I thought about just dropping this in the official Xbox One Launch thread, but then I changed my mind because I thought it deserved a thread of its own. They preferred to be anonymous, but I just really wanted to share this.

I am no. 2 to receive my Xbone at my EB tonight.

No queuing up required ;)

I went in this arvo to see if they would match Big W or even JB so I could pick everything up tonight.

What happened was I asked one of the 3 eb staff directing people where I needed to go to get my order finalised (to price match)
They said you will need to go in this queue (nobody) and then go into the other queue (40 people deep at 4:55) to get your ticket for midnight pick up.

In order to do the match they finalised the order thus giving me a raffle ticket... Genius ;)

She was about to staple the A01 ticket until the staff serving the so called fast pass line realised that the person that had been queued up in the slow line for the number one ticket might have gotten a little antsy and took it before handing my cashier the ticket book ;)

Winning ;)
2nd place is the first loser....

That sucks my EB are usually terrible when it comes to honouring their own policies.

They were good today wouldn't match Big W but were happy to match Jb cause they are having midnight launches.
I'm happy to pay the extra 20 bucks to save having to go back ;)

Probably hoping you won't return cos it's kinda fucked up they won't price match at midnight but will refund the difference 9hrs later.

I really want to race Bathurst with ranchers, but I am really considering buying NFS rivals instead... I think I'll have a lot more fun with a game like that, sounds like there is a bit of grinding involved with forza, decent car affordable after 6-10 hours of career events for example, I couldn't be arsed.

Not sure what to do, leaning towards nfs.
