Okay, for whoever said this is stupid because of the balloon's that are going to pollute the area... I'm sure that MS is going to have a cleaning crew out there.



Second, no, it isn't free, but for $20, you get a free game (That is worth it) a t-shirt, a hat, and a canvas bag. This is worth the $20... not to mention you get to run around throwing water balloons at 3,599 other people. If only I lived in Australia...
