Bye Halo 2 and Hello Halo 3! + Win a FREE Copy!

Posted August 25th, 2007 by Abdalla Ahmed

Categories: Ramblings

 

The most anticipated game of the year is out in stores September 25th (24th in the US). I know it will live up to the hype because the Beta that was released was absolutely sweet! I was hooked on the damn thing, sniping people, lasering them to bits with the new spartan laser & even running them over with the warthog! I am telling you Halo 3 will be number 1 for a long, looong time!

I have ordered mine, and guess what? I have ordered you one also! Thats right, were holding a competition once again and its very easy to enter (again) but this time we are offering an alternative award for those of you who do not own the best console in the world (xbox 360)- How does $50 sound instead? Yes thats right, when the winner “wins” just make sure to answer my email and state if you want the cash or the game!

Important: I can only get a PAL copy of the game so this means the winner should select the $50 (via paypal) if they do not reside within Europe.

How To Enter:

  • Comment Below – 1 Ticket
  • Subscribe To RSS – 2 Tickets
  • Subscribe To RSS via Bloglines (Subscribe in Bloglines) – 3 Tickets
  • Fave This Blog Via Technorati – 4 Tickets
  • Mention us on your blog/website (Trackback) – 5 Tickets

    • So a maximum of 15 tickets available each for the draw so get yourself entering, its either a Halo3 copy or $50 and the best thing is its FREE!

    Notes:

    This competition is only done so we can somehow make up for our downtime, what better way is there than holding a sweet competition! Get entering folks; This competition ends on the 24th September.

    This competition is sponsored by Xaasid Entertainment Blog

    I just subscribed via Bloglines, favorited you blog via Technorati (under bennettjw3) and commented. Nice contest by the way, too bad I don’t live in Europe though. I guess that’s 8 tickets so far. If I have time I’ll write about it on my blog. Great Idea.

    My tickets are as follows:

    2. RSS (my Yahoo – 2 IDs) – 2+2 entries
    3. RSS(bloglines) – 3 entries
    4. Technorati Fav (wolfsbane) – 4 entries

    So, that would be 12 entries for me. I request you to confirm this.. :)

    Thanks
