WoW players: we have all your patch 2.4 news!

Fanswag: Win a copy of BioShock, get it overnighted (Part 1) [We have a winner]


[Update: A winner has been chosen. Congratulations to ZappaKitty!]

So, perhaps you heard that certain Toys R' Us locations are selling BioShock early. While we haven't been lucky enough to find a copy at our local store, Joystiq has snatched up four (count 'em four) copies of the game and decided to share them with us! Yes, we'll be giving away two copies of BioShock right here on X3F. Even better, the games will be overnighted to the winners so that they can get their BioShock on before anyone else. Both Joystiq and X3F will be giving away two copies today, for a grand total of four. What do you have to do to win? Here's the skinny:
  • Leave a comment below that tries to make us not excited about BioShock (spoiler alert: you can't!)
  • You may only comment on this specific post once. If you leave more than one comment, you'll be automatically disqualified so be careful, ok?
  • If you enter more than once, only activate one comment -- otherwise we'll send a Big Daddy after you
  • You can also enter our Part 2 giveaway, and both of Joystiq's giveaways (Part 1 & Part 2), giving you a total of four chances to win. You can only win once though. Not bad, eh?
  • This contest is open to readers in the US only
  • Entries can be submitted until 11:59 am ET on Friday, August 17th.
Official rules are here, so check 'em if you've got any questions.

My favorite thing about BioShock? The moral dilemma I feel about bashing a 10 year old girl's face in with a monkey wrench.

Bioshock's environments which actively change as you're playing is sweet.

well i heard that a major component of the game revolves around a lot of backtracking and plus would you really want to pay for a game that will only be used up until september 24th?? Bio-what?! oh you mean halo 3!

You want to be not excited about BioShock?

Just remember that Halo 3 is still coming out this year.
