A plea to Harmonix

[solidsnakejt]

Make the dog get a part time job to replace it. It's only fair.

agree with him

It’s kind of like a joke. It really happened but I don’t expect them to pay for it. Think I've paid for the Playstation, accessories, and about 15 games (including the Rock Band series) just for it to come crashing to the floor.

What the--
$500 2007 PS3
$75~ Accessories
$200 Special Edition Rock Band
$60 The Beatles: Rock Band
$780 for 13 other PS3 games
------
$1540+ total (not including Rock Band DLC)

And this is all supposedly made by a 15-year-old taking on odd jobs, with too much honor to ask for financial help from his parents?
I'm calling bull**** here, and am even going to say that the kid is fairly well-off.

Even if you aren't, raising $150 should be easy work for somebody of such valor. You apparently managed to earn $1,500+ within two years-- this is a tenth of that price. Therefore, you should be able to find the funds to repair it within 2-3 months. Especially with winter around the corner-- a lot of snow shoveling to do, y'know?

In any case, trying to guilt-trip Harmonix into buying you a PS3 is a bastard move. You're trying to mimic the people who plead for help with serious causes-- you know, hunger, or a home, or a serious disease. And even these unfortunate people don't single out a non-volunteer company with reasoning being that they "deserve" the assistance because they've bought from the company before.

In fact, you even making such a claim is equivalent to saying that Harmonix's products aren't worth the price. This is obvious if the money that you've given to Harmonix hasn't been repaid with the quality of their products, and you still feel entitled to a "little more."

In short? Your cause is ridiculous, and is a parody of those who really do need help. Give it up.

I feel sorry for that customer.

They first of all wanted to buy Band Hero
and second of all, bought Lego Rock Band (even worse).

And yeah... sucks about your PS3 but I doubt you're gonna get help from them. Sorry man.

You know what else is harsh? Having your PS3 break, posting about it on an internet forum and getting mocked about it.

You know what's very easy? Walking away from pointless internet arguments like this one.

It's called a joke dude, they're not supposed to be serious or heartfelt.

Some people really take the internet way too seriously... :S

I bet if 100 people agree that HMX should show some love and donate a PS3 to me before 12:00 AM tonight they will! Join me and comment showing you agree!

Ok now you're just sounding like a ridiculous spoiled little brat...

Who do you think you are? Anyone bothering to even respond to this kid (yes, I did but I honestly thought he wasn't that serious) really should stop... This is borderline absurd and I can't believe how little respect you have for other HONEST people who buy their own stuff and don't ask HMX for free consoles for no reason.

I can't believe how selfish and idiotic you are.

Grow up.

IColinol I don't know what your problem is but I've had about enough of it. I am an HONEST person who buys there own stuff. NOT someone who gos on forums just to put people down. I can’t believe how serious your taking this are you afraid I'm gonna get something your not? And I bought TBRB limited edition bundle. My parents wouldn’t give me the money if I asked anyway.

I bought my own TBRB bundle as well. I have a job.

I couldn't care less if you got anything from HMX, but whatever it is you sure as hell don't deserve it, because all you did was sit here and whine, you even had the face to ask people to partecipate in your selfish request for your own personal gain.

I don't see how you consider yourself honest.

Regardless of circumstance, we don't really want to encourage begging of any kind on this forum. Sorry.
