Mystery Code Giveaway

Shafnitz — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 04:35:25 +0000

Major Nelson has been doing mystery code givaways on his website and his Twitter recently. I thought it would be fun to do the same. Since we don’t get a ton of traffic right now, it might take a while before someone comes across this.

First come, first served: CJKRV-B326C-FYKFW-WC6CF-YK4G8

Be sure to post a comment if you’re the lucky winner.

Well, we had a pretty good response to our Forza Motorsport 2 giveaway with 48 total entries. Unfortunately, there can be only one winner. We had RANDOM.ORG generate a random number between 2 and 49 (my initial post doesn’t count, obviously) and the number that it rolled was 49!

So without further ado, the lucky winner of our first ever Xbox Overdose Giveaway is blurredimage (Gamertag: BlurredImage). Congratulations to BlurredImage. Please send a message over Xbox LIVE to the gamertag: xboxoverdosecom containing your shipping information and we’ll get your free copy of Forza Motorsport 2 sent out to you right away.

Thanks again to everyone who participated. This was the first Xbox Overdose Giveaway, but it won’t be the last. If you like Xbox Overdose be sure to tell your friends.
