Guess it paid off after all
« on: April 15, 2011, 06:49:31 AM »
Well I originally wasn't that happy that with my purchase of Bulletstorm, however the fact that i pre-ordered it has payed off, to the price of $350.

Not only did i get my Water pistol for preordering the game, i also got an entry into a competition  EB Games was holding,

Preorders for Dead Space2, Dragon Age2, Crysis2, Need for Speed Shift2 and or Bulletstorm got entries into the competition. The winner won a A R Drone, iPhone controlled WiFi Quadricopter equipped with two onboard cameras.

WINNER

I got the phone call today and went in and picked it up on the way home from work.

I know its just a toy, but

You know what they say, growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional


I will prob play with it a little later on, then more than likely it will find its way onto ebay :P

That looks like a blast!  I flew Radio Controlled planes for many years.  That is so far beyond where I started it is hard to imagine.  I still have Radio Controlled Boats, motorcycles, a truck and a couple of planes, but since I moved about three years ago, I have not spent hardly any time with them.  Working on my house takes all of my time right now. :)

I miss them and some of my other hobbies for sure.

That thing is really cool though... and it is cool to even KNOW someone who actually won something for once. :)
