Not sure if the /bonusitems thing is true or not.

Again, from what I understand, (and this could be totally wrong), the /bonusitem gives you ONE (1) "Broken Toy" item per account. There is a quest that will get you the Grey Giant with this item.

If they allow people to get multiple "broken toys" from the /bonusitem, or if there is a bug that allows mutliple Grey Giants from a single "Broken Toy" then they are really stupid, especially with a preview event to work out any bugs.

(To be clear, I believe you'll have to do the quest again in the "real" game even if you do the quest in the preview.)

That's ridiculous and laughable. I guess no gift means anything unless it's customized eh?

Now I have four very well equipped characters, thanks to two birthday presents. And I don't feel very good about it, because I didn't "earn" it. It's kinda lame.

You're a hyprocrite then. You think making money off the presents is "lame" yet you did it anyway. No one forced you to sell them. And now you want pets customized AFTER you already made money and for what? Because YOU dont like the fact that the pets can be sold? Yep total hyprocrite.

ok nvm my statement, i thought you could get multiple broken flutes per character...lol

currently my nearest book store does not sell PC gamers, or at least its not in stock, I saw lots of other mags. Som with PC on them, but no PC gamer

I didnt see anyone post this so I guess I'll post it.

This is what the Grey Giant looks like in game:

Electric Sky · Sep 13, 2006, 12:59 PM // 12:59

i was hoping we could get something a little more...cute ?

ah well, i still want that beast !

skretth · Sep 13, 2006, 01:29 PM // 13:29

anyone know if the australian copy will have it...

The Nov issue hit the newstand at my local Barnes & Noble near Durham, NC this morning.

Just an FYI for those interested.

Sir Skullcrasher · Sep 13, 2006, 03:55 PM // 15:55

Did you used the code yet?

DevilStick · Sep 13, 2006, 04:44 PM // 16:44

Yes, but I haven't logged in. It did say it was a "grey giant" code or something like that.

The magazine indicates you have to be in Elona (Kamadan) to get the toy to start the quest, so I didn't bother yet.

DevilStick · Sep 13, 2006, 04:56 PM // 16:56

Ok, in the name of science, I logged in, typed "/bonusitems" and did NOT get the broken toy or the grey giant.

So looks like, as the magazine says, we have to wait.

Sir Skullcrasher · Sep 13, 2006, 05:03 PM // 17:03

Guess we'll need to wait till the event to see this mini pet. If you intend on keeping it, you'll need to buy Nightfall. Going to check out the stores today and see if the magazine is here or not.

Dante the Warlord · Sep 13, 2006, 07:23 PM // 19:23

He probably will be, right now the only two green pets I know of are Bone Dragon and Kunnavang (sp?) and I have both of those. If you dont get Bone Dragon by luck, I dont think the price people charge is even worth it.
