ctrl_alt_del Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 Got a package from Microsoft eCompany Store waiting for me at my work place. It has a Xbox 360 Chat Pad and a Mic kit. Infact, the whole TAP team got a lot of goodies coming there way after IMBender made it to the MVP list. So we have copies of Windows Vista Ultimate, MS One Care, humongous 0.5 lts stainless steel coffee thermos, Chat pads and mics, a Halo light saber key-chain and some other assorted stuff on the way, all shipped with FedEx Priority shipping. The best part is, MS picks up the tab on both the goods as well as the shiping. Infact, for a while, our devious minds were hatching a plan where we would pick up the cheapest stuff at the eCompany Store, like the candy-dispenser that was available for $1. Now pick-up 150 such dispensers and ship it to 150 people. Which would mean MS would spend $75 each in FedExing 150 candy dispensers to 150 different people! That would have ensured that IMBender wouldn't be getting another MVP for the rest of his life, so we wisely dropped the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyofx Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 You need Vista ultimate like you need herpes. lol. The rest of the booty is way cool though. Free chat pads? Lucky bastards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Systematic Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 a Halo light saber key-chain *drools* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctrl_alt_del Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 I personally don't care about Vista but it's free so why not. Besides, the guys have hardware powerful enough to run it on full steam AND play Crysis, all settings maxed out. So I guess they would have some use for it.

sandeepnd Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 I finally got myself a Nintendo DS. Yippie! Bought it off from LastAvenger. The games on the DS are simply incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ЯeVeЯse Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 (edited) I recently acquired Mass Effect and Battlefield: Bad Company (Gold Edition). No pics at the moment, so you are just going to have to take my word for it. My characters name in Mass Effect is 'Angus' Shepard. I am also, not very pleased that the box of the X360 version of BF: BC (Gold) doesn't look as sweet the PS3 version's.

That would've made you chaps the only MVPs from India on Sony's list. Even Milestone cant brag about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have put us on FedEx MVP list for sure. Btw, here are some pictures of the goodies: LIVE Messenger Kit: Love the backlit keypad though I am not too sure if I can have it plugged in while playing. Also, the mic that came with it can be used as a mobile phone head-set as well. AitD, Vista and other assorted stuff: Some more stuff for the computer buffs. You can also see multiple copies of AitD. *Wink* Coffee Thermos A rather cool looking coffee thermos with laser etched MS logo on the side. Personally, I think it's a waste but others seem to like it. Edited July 15, 2008 by ctrl_alt_del Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
