Rocking The Halo Holiday Giveaway Vote

The Halo Holiday Giveaway

The Halo Holiday Giveaway required interested parties to take a holiday-themed screenshot for their shot at winning a fun bundle of assorted goodies. I’m much too lazy to choose a winner myself so I have decided to place that heavy task upon you. I selected three finalists, each one representing a different level of altering. One entry is Photoshopped to the nines, another has been adorned with a paint program, and the last one is completely unaltered. Choose your favorite, vote for it in the poll (which will remain open until Monday, January 4th at 11:59 pm PST), and your job here is done! For today anyways.

The Halo Holiday Giveaway

Halo Holiday Giveaway

You can’t spell holidays without Halo (or ho now I think about it) which is why the combining of the two just makes sense. Thanks to the benevolent nature of COL0NEL SANDERS coupled with a few things I found stuck between the cushions of my couch, you now have a shot at getting something you actually want for Christmas instead of the shit your family halfheartedly stuffs in your stocking. Up for grabs is a bundle including Halo 3: ODST (courtesy of our favorite fried chicken-obsessed friend), the Halo Graphic Novel, a set of Halo 3: ODST buttons, and an I HEAR IDIOTS t-shirt. All you have to do for your shot at winning this delightful collection of gamer goodies is take a holiday-themed screenshot using Halo 3′s theater mode. You may interpret holiday-themed however you like, Christmas, snowflakes, New Year’s, whatever floats your December/January boat. You’ve got until the 30th to submit your entry so read the specifics (located after the jump) and then get to snapping some screenshots! Heck, it’s better than spending time with your freak of a family, right?

Marc Ecko Halo Prize Pack Giveaway

Marc Ecko Halo GiveawayWinning free stuff is always cool. Winning completely awesome, super bad ass free stuff is even cooler. Marc Ecko is giving you just that opportunity with today’s edition of his 12 day holiday giveaway extravaganza. While previous days have included Playboy Prize packs and other things you don’t give a shit about, today brings you a Halo-themed bundle worth drooling over. Dubbed the Halo Prize Pack and consisting of everything from a Frank O’Connor autographed Master Chief hoodie to a “Splatter Achievement” wall hanging, you have until midnight ET tonight to submit your entry. As of posting time, that’s slightly under six hours, which may or may not have been a purposeful attempt to minimize other entries in order to increase my own odds. Hey, I could have just given you a two minute warning. Be thankful, you ungrateful bastards!

Bayonetta Demo Code Giveaway

Bayonetta

The Xbox 360 demo for Bayonetta, an upcoming stylish and cinematic action-adventure game expected to release early next year, will be available to the general masses on December 3rd. If you’re one of those people that enjoy having things significantly before all your friends, perhaps you would like one of the several codes I just happen to have sitting right here next me that will unlock the demo a full week early. Here’s how you can get your hands on one: I’m thinking of a number between one and two. Guess the number and leave your (exact) gamertag. The people who get the closest will find a Bayonetta demo code in a message sent via Live. Priority will be given to those people whose accounts are online. Yup, I’m giving you an excuse to get away from that torture that is spending time with your freakish family. Happy Thanksgiving!

*A special thank you to DeaconBlade, who gave me a demo of his Bayonetta (and I didn’t even need a code!), for the goodies. Activation codes valid for Xbox Live accounts in U.S. and Canada only.

A Truly Magnetic Giveaway!

mario magnets

Pull up a chair, we need to talk. I’ve been meaning to discuss this with you for a while now but I wasn’t sure how you would take it so I’ve held off. I can’t keep my mouth shut any longer though so I’ll just come out and say it. Your refrigerator is fucking ugly. I couldn’t even use the condensed word fugly it’s so bad. All the magnets you use to hold up your pictures, little notes, and various lists have slowly created the largest eyesore known to mankind. I know you have a tough time throwing stuff away but the car insurance calendars and realtor advertisements have got to go. Lucky for you I have an adorable handmade Mario-themed magnet set ready to bring your kitchen back to its original glory. I only have one though so you’ll have to fight tooth and nail for your chance to win. To enter, simply submit a two million word essay about the role perler beads (which happens to be what the magnets were crafted from) play in our current society. If you don’t feel like doing that, you can always just leave a comment saying you want the magnets too I suppose.

EDIT: The winner has been notified and has accepted their prize. Congratulations to Artemis, and enjoy the awesome magnets!
