So WHAT is this again?

for 72 hours they allow people to chat to one another? or listen to the same music? or watch some crappy free movies and listen to crappy songs?

JUST WHAT THE F*CK IS THIS?

theres noclear information on it, theres no indication as to what this entails. Nothing.

Whati want to know is, is there any free stuff in this? if not then MS can shove it up their anus.

W takim razie pozdrawiam rodaka. Warszawa się kłania, heh.

I didn't get the chance to see them back then. I would still see them today if they ever came to Poland again.


Cheers my fellow-citizen.

It does make sense, and it's not that hard to acknowledge that 360 is a failure.

don't you feel bad that you have to attack 360 on some forums?
