Cutter 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Looks like this is geared towads XBOX users, when I signed in it says this "Only your member name, gender and xbox gamertag be publicly viewable." XBOX GAMERTAG?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NYR_32 6 Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 Nah, its geared towards GR:AW in general. Just like "Team Shadownet" was for SC:CT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dannik 43 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 No, it's not Xbox-centric. Ubisoft simply makes a profile slot available for those folks who do play via the Live! service. Xbox Gamertags are about as ubiquitous as an MSN ID or ICQ number. Not everyone has one, but a lot of people do. Anyway, it doesn't matter what your platform of choice is, to participate and get free stuff (if you're in North America only, at least so far) while potentially getting your eyes on new media before the general public does. At least, that's the theory. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ruin 17 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Joined... very cool. I like the idea. Too bad it closes on April 15. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dannik 43 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Ruin, this is just an extension of Ubisoft's long standing viral marketing fanclub projects. Kimi used to run Team Shadownet, which was for Splinter Cell Chaos Theory's launch. It too closed shortly after the game shipped. It's all about the ramp up. Once the game has been on shelves for a couple of weeks, no amount of marketing in the traditional sense, will increase sales. From that point, it's sites like GR.net and the more mainstream folks like GameSpy that will determine post-launch sales figures. GR Unit isn't a 'real' fan site, in the classic sense; it's a well tuned PR machine, rewarding everyday folks for their enthusiasm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ruin 17 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 After looking around I kinda figured that out. It is a shame, this kind of thing could have real potential... oh well. I'll enjoy it for the time being. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
