    Heh, resisting xbox live for all these years makes you elite.
    I just redeemed it. Thanks for the virtual helmet. It will prevent virtual face palms.

    Oh man, what a load of crap. I got that mail too but after the online friends section it just gives a link to shitty facebook. I have no mention of the limited XBOX or the helmet. It also says I've only played up to 19 hours online??What???? It's way over that. It looks like Microsoft's stats computer is broken.

    I got the same thing...no mention of the Xbox or helmet, looks like this is a America favouritism thing :(

    EDIT: Ok so this is serious bullshit, just tried to enter the sweepstakes for the Xbox console by downloading the special Gamerpic to be told "Sorry this offer is not available in your region" Wankers!

    It seems that way and if it is that's not fair at all. Is there anyone not in the US who has received the chance to enter the sweepstakes or the special helmet?

    I entered the sweepstakes last night from my console and then received this email. I also got a message on the console from player LIVE with my helmet code.

    But to be fair, Xbox Live did not launch outside America until 2003... and the uptake in Japan was quite low anyway, I am sure they could throw a private party for all the 10 year old Xbox live subscribers in Japan in a small village hall. :highly_amused::highly_amused::highly_amused:

    It shouldn't matter about how many members there are. Also when I try to check my stats on the new reward page it says I need to be a gold member which I am and have been since 2009. Their system is messed up.

    I really have no idea how this system is set up.

    As you can see below I clearly have 44894 gamer points

    but for some reason all award status things are locked. I have enough point to open the highest award. And the Japanese message below my avatar is telling me I need to be a gold member which I am and have been since 2009. It's on automatic update too.

    Has anyone managed to open the awards?

    Hmm... I wonder if I reactivate my gold membership from silver if I'll get one of those... Hell, I'm probably gonna do so because of Halo 4

    I've unlocked the first 2 tiers on mine. Maybe it's some sort of inter-country account shenanigans. Is your account a UK or a JP account?
