I know a guy (from CAG) who sold his console for 4K and donated the money to Wounded Warrior Project. Much respect to the guy who bought it as the money will help some people.

Did anyone manage to redeem a helmet code on a UK account? I got hold of a code but it refused to work on my UK profile telling me it was invalid when inputting it on the console and there was a problem with the offer on Xbox.com. I tried it on my US account and it worked perfectly. A bit annoying though as I really wanted it on my main profile.

It's region locked then. At least you confirmed it for some people who wanted to know.

so I guess it's locked for the rest of Europe too :(

I bought into Live the first day it was available in my hometown through a purchase of MechAssault. Let my account lapse for about 2 months at one point in 2005... wish I hadn't now!

Lost my original Live name as well: "an unborn baby". It's pathetic, but I did get a kick out of reading "[username] killed an unborn baby." whenever someone shot me down in Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

It's becoming apparent that only select people got these consoles and not every 10 year member like it was initially thought from reports.

Well I won 4000 MS points from their anniversary contest.

Do have to admit that I got a little overexcited when I saw the return address & subject line - forgot there were other prizes besides the console. Oh well - still very happy!
