No offense, but screw you. I just went and bought Mario Kart and I was also allowed to purchase GTA IV.. spend my own hard earned cash.. now you telling me you hope I get banned? I guess I shouldn't play because Microsoft uses the force to catch early players!! OooOOOOO.. screw this, i'm about to sign in and start racking up achievements early.. just like my halo 3 ones... ON LEGIT DISC.
So many things to cover in this post:
1) "No offense, but screw you." Immature and contradictory. Good way to start your post if you're looking for credibility.
2) Did I say anything about people that bought it legitimately? I'm pretty sure I addressed my post to pirates. If that wasn't clear, I apologize.
3) "The force" Really? Was that supposed to be funny? Were you really alluding to the idea that Microsoft can't determine if you were online early? That's just comical.
4) Glad you're racking up those achievements early. I still stand by my statement that you'll never see any kind of special awards for reaching higher ranks after signing on early. Not saying that you care nor would achieve that... just saying that IF you did, I'm confident your account would be overlooked for that because of playing before the official release.
Enjoy.
