I got a email from GAME uk back in June,
I didn't want to get a X1 because of the cost & i didn't want 'all the consoles' for cost reasons, i loved my X360 over my PS3 & i liked the PS4, but today i saw the following trailer, i think the Forza series is the best & thought Horizon was excellent so of course i had Horizon 2 on order for my X360 but i saw this

It is like half the game on the X360, if i cancel my order (saving £40) & also use my free shares money i can get a X1 for £170, on checking i have had my Gold Live lapse & also have £45 in my account (which i cannot use for Gold Live) but i am out of the loop on the X1, i have been advised to get the White X1 with Sunset Overdrive.

So i can get the White X1 & then use my MS balance to get Horizon 2 for £210 (£170 when i cancel my X360 version) this is a no brainer isn't it?
I would be interested to hear from people who have both the PS4 & X1 especially as the consoles are getting on for a year old.
Just unsure about what to do :/ i know it's a first world problem but i don't want to waste £180
I went to the store that had been selected (in the rest of the email not posted) to get my share certificate, i sort of forgot about them until i got this email the other day,Following on from our email on 19th May, we're excited to announce that GAME Digital plc is on track to list on the London Stock Exchange! Even more exciting news - as a thank you for being such an amazing and loyal customer, you've been selected as one of 20,000 customers to receive £100 worth of Virtual Loyalty Shares when GAME Digital plc starts trading on the London Stock Exchange on Wednesday 11th June 2014!
This means that from October 2014 you'll be able to exchange your Virtual Loyalty Shares for GAME Reward points. For more information about what this means for you please visit our website.
I thought & then what shall i spend it on, i have a ok games PC, also a WiiU & PS4 (as well as loads of older consoles) & i have always wanted a Sony Vita (one of the new slim ones) & i had basically made up my mind on getting one, it would have cost me a £40 outlay & £60 for a 64GB memory stick for it, i wouldn't need to get many games as they come with a set of free games (five in my case) & there are loads of free ones with my PSN+ i asked for advice on here http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=902486&highlight= & the people who replied really helped me decide 100%.Congratulations on being one of our lucky customers who received 50 virtual loyalty shares back in June!
At the time they were issued, your virtual shares were worth £2 each (based on the launch price of Game Digital plc). Since the launch of the shares I'm pleased to announce that the share value as of last night has risen to £2.82. This means that the total value of your virtual shares is now £141.
In 15 days (16th October) it will be your first opportunity to make a decision on what to do with your shares. You will have 3 options:
1. Redeem 100% of your virtual shares for GAME Reward points
2. Redeem 50% of your virtual shares for GAME Reward points
3. Redeem 0% of your virtual shares for GAME Reward points
Take some time over the next 2 weeks to decide what you want to do with your virtual shares. Remember that the value of shares can rise or fall. Also bear in mind that if the company decides to pay dividends on Game Digital plc shares, then you may end up with more value in your virtual share account if you have chosen to keep more of your shares.
You will have 5 more opportunities to redeem your virtual shares for Reward points, the next opportunity being in March 2015.
Congratulations once again and I'll be in touch again with more information about what you need to do on 16th October.
