PlanetXbox360 Monthly Contest: Aliens vs. Predator Retail Giveaway

**EricBushEIC** · 02-23-10 02:28 AM

This month up for grabs from SEGA we have a retail/sealed copy of Aliens vs. Predator for Xbox 360 - the contest will run as follows: We will do this once a month and only those people who play by the rules will have a chance at winning the retail Xbox 360 game.

-One entry per person or IP address
-Deadline is the end of February (and so on for each month)
-all entries must be submitted in this thread every day we update the news (Mon-Fri)
-each entrant must make a post in this thread and update it each day of the month with a link to a news story that is posted on the front page
-user must also be active in the official PlanetXbox360.com forums
-this is meant to get our readers familiar with the site layout and hopefully want to come back for more Xbox 360 related info as well as grow our community

OK, that's it - good luck everyone and have fun, spread the word and keep it clean/fair, no cheating! Winner must be inside the United States for this one, not all contests will be this way. There will be a new game given away each month, only to our active daily visitors - not much to ask for a free $60 game (next month is Final Fantasy XIII) Set a reminder in your calendar or just set PlanetXbox360.com to your homepage so it reminds you each day to stop by, I think after a while of giving the site a chance you will come here anyway and the free game giveaway will just be a nice bonus. There will be tons of other XBLA code, points, and free game giveaways besides just this one, but this monthly game giveaway will be a constant throughout 2010.

Example of Correct Entry:

2/23: Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Speeds into Stores for $49.99

2/24: Deadly Premonition Drops to Retail Stores Today for $19.99

This contest is over, winner will be picked this week; good luck to all and stay tuned for a free copy of Final Fantasy XIII in March, same rules....thanks for playing everyone!

Good job everyone, just think there may be 10-15 people this month at most, that's pretty damn good odds at winning a free $60 game, and we'll do it each month so maybe next month tell all your facebook/aim buddies about joining - that way we can continue to give away bigger and better prizes!

**robby1051** · 02-24-10 11:59 PM

sorry I havent posted much since i joined, but i have had a bad 2010 so far... but things are looking up, got a new house, and looking into getting a car... and maybe AvP? lol
