Tickets lol is it gonna be a charlie and the chocolate factory sort of thing. Bill gates can be wonka and im sure he can hire enough short people to be xbox oompa's. It must be what he was saving his money for all along now hes trying to get a nerd to take control of his company when he dies as only they can rule it like him.

I think it is so lame because when you "win" you still have to pay for your own transportation out there and fnid a place to stay and god knows what etc could be.
But if you out in the dessert i bet water is going to be pretty expensive.

[NDiddy]

Well microsoft unlike the old man in jurassic park doesnt want to spare any expenses.

I think it is lame because they are going to have a moblile Best Buy onsite so you can buy your XBox 360, amongst other things. You're really not winning anything, and in actuality you are pretty much "winning" to be pawns in an elaborate PR stunt.

It would be worth it to me just so I could shake Peter Moore's hand and thank him for Sega.

More like punch Peter Moore for ruining Sega.
