Win Gears of War in the New Year’s All-Nighter!

Not sure what to do in the minutes leading up to New Year’s Day?  Well, TriXie has a little something for you extreme Xbox 360 fans out there who’ll elect to simply chill at home with a chainsaw and Gears of War on Xbox Live.

Date: December 31, 2006 – January 1, 2007
Time: From 10:00 P.M. Eastern (7:00 P.M. Pacific) until the cops come knockin’!

Gears of War All-Nighter Details 

Gears of War

Why play?

Ten (10) lucky gamers will be selected for a brand spanking new copy of Gears of War signed by the military named fiend himself, Major Nelson.  If you have a copy already, this is surely enough reason to own another one. 

If you’re planning an event while playing Gears of War, be sure to blog about it or take some pics and send them TriXie’s way at xlmail@microsoft.com!

    It would be an honor to have anything Major has laid his hands upon. I cherish my Major Nelson headset and Xbox 360 for Dummies book that Major sent me in February. :)

    Thats a pretty weak prize given that the winners will all already have one.

    On the other hand if you do win one I’m sure very small handful of guys like UNSCleric would foolishly pay a premium for it.

    I’d rather one be signed by TriXie or even MUCH BETTER…Cliffy!

    I was probably just gonna play Gears on New Years anyway, so getting a prize just for saying how it went seems pretty sweet to me. Nothing wrong with getting Major’s John Hancock, nothing wrong at all.

    Wait a second… You have to already have Gears? They should give it to the people who don’t already have it (like me :) ).

    Hmm…for me it was a little “RB6:V” to bring in the New Year.

    I returned to Halo 2 for the first time in half a year. I can’t believe I’m still nearly as awesome as I was when left it. 2007 is the year of Halo, so I thought it was fitting.

    Yeah, pathetic as it sounds all these “next gen” games so far have only proven how well set-up the online portion of Halo2 was.

    Now let’s hope the bar isn’t so high that Halo3 ends up being a letdown.

    I would probably frame it. Like I did my Limited Edition Halo 3 Mylar Art print.

    I don’t have a copy of Gears of War either and they should’ve had the contest for people who don’t have it. The winner may go sell it on EBay or something. I was suppose to get a copy from one particular person but after a month and a half nothing has come through yet. ;)

    I ended up not playing anything at that time.

    …although I did pick GoW up again out of lack of Gamefly’s ability to send any of my top 5 queued titles.
