Golden Axe Contest .. And the Winners Are….

by PacoDG

First, thanks for the many entries for the contest. After taking like ten minutes weeding through the entries that were valid (c’mon folks, I said you had to put your GamerTag in the post!), I was able to get them all in to a random.org list click that “Randomize” button and come up with the top 5 commenters, so in order, with their winning entry comments:

1 -

“I think I deserve a copy of Golden Axe Because:

At the moment my Xbox 360 is broken, but fortunately my brother’s is still working. So I can play sometimes on his Xbox 360. I don’t have many games to play at the moment, but Golden Axe would be a fantastic addition to my games! This would keep me occupied whilst my 360 is in repairs for days and days.

I’m also looking to get as many 200/200’s off Arcade Games as possible lately and I’ve heard that this game is doable. So this would be perfect for me to boost up my Live Arcade 100% Completion target.

If you gave me a copy of the game it’d be highly appreciated, and I’d never forget. If not it, well, It’s not the end of the world!

Anyway, Thanks.”

2 -

“I believe I deserve Golden Axe because for it’s time, it was one of the greatest co-op beat em up games there was. I blame it for takeing many hours of my day, and sleep. It was great, a little underappreciated, and I want to enjoy the originality all over again.
Thanks Sega”

3 -

“Because if I don’t win, I’m not going to buy it. Which means if I don’t win, I won’t even get to play it (at least not the full version). Which is why I should win.”

4 -

“I have SEGA Tattooed on my Leg, that should good enough to get a free SEGA game.

fanboy

It would help to answer people questions like “why did you get SEGA Tattooed on your leg”

For some reason “Because I’m a SEGA Fan” or “because it’s original” isn’t enough.”

5 -

“I deserve it because I do not already have it.”

So there you go, I suggest reading through some of the other entries as they provided some amusing reads for me. Sorry I couldn’t get you all as winners, especially “casey” .. dude, you wrote a whole story! If you didn’t get to win this one, get on the Sonic contest, its easier than you think, and I am liking the entries for that one so far. Finally, thanks Sega for helping out The Rally with this fun contest!
