Am i the only one that finds the fraction a little odd? Am I missing something?

Yes. You missed the fact someone had so little of a life that they actually wrote a cheque to a game company, and are instead looking at a fraction which you can barely see.
Each to their own, I still play Bad Company myself (albeit on the Xbox*, but it's still good fun)
*I play RTS on the PC, as my wireless isn't the most reliable... Just defending myself from being flamed

That is from "NJ", which is the state of New Jersey in the US. The fraction is common here, and is just what the "cents" part of the check is represented by. If it was 60.46 total, it would be indicated by a 46/100 instead. The spelling of "check" is also the Americanized version, similar to "color" versus "colour" etc.
You can get pretty much whatever you wish on your checks, a picture of your dog, your car or sports team.
Also, it appears to be addressed to the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 leed developer.
Not really, unless you think it looks like he's written BF Bed Compeny 2 leed developer.
All the a's look the same, just very squashed and weird.
BF BC 1 was pants anyway, not really looking forward to the 2nd!
Still looking forward to COD MW2 tho
I thought it was pretty good for a console version, obviously not on the grand scale of 64 players on the pc, but a good bf game nonetheless.

I Think IW may have just doubled the sales on BC2 through their ways
he's going to get a lot more than that back in free stuff
that or dice will not cash the cheque.

He just said in the letter, he was going to spend it on MW2. To be honest, sending it to DICE was probably a better way to spend the money anyway.
As sad as this is, I'm still raging so hard over IW.net that this is just too great for me.
I can kind of see why he would send the cheque though...Imagine how many people have written or emailed DICE, this way it stands out just a little bit more.
