Def Jam: ICON Contest

Do you really want to be an ICON?  Unscripted 360 and EA Chicago are giving you the chance to be what most only dream of.  This is your chance to be an ICON!  Well, not really but we’re definitely giving you a chance to win something that no one else has in their collection.  Fans of EA’s Def Jam series will have the opportunity to score a signed copy and poster of Def Jam: ICON.  The game and poster are signed by everyone on the Def Jam: ICON Development Team!  Each time you play, you’ll have the entire ICON crew there with you.  This is a one of a kind copy of the game so get your game face on.

Let me lay the groundwork for the ‘Wanna Be An ICON’ contest and giveaway.

What do I have to do?

Submit a lyrical verse about Def Jam: ICON.  The subject can range from why you’re an ICON to why you want the game.  Just make sure the verses are hotter than everyone elses.  Entries can either be in audio or text format.  You can see the rules of both audio and text below.  The top 5 will be selected to receive the game and poster.

Send all entries to unscripted@unscripted360.com before June 7.

Audio Rules

-Submit an audio clip no more than 2 minutes in length with your verse (lines)
-Format doesn’t matter as long as it’s playable (mp3, wma, wav etc)
-Use whatever you can at your disposal including sounds, beats etc
-Verse must be your own not copied

Text Rules

-Submit no more than 16 lines
-Verse must be your own not copied

Prizes

-One (1) grand prize winner will receive a signed copy of Def Jam: ICON and a signed ICON poster.
-Four (4) finalists will receive a signed copy of Def Jam: ICON

Contest will end June 7.  Winners will be announced and/or contacted and will have one week to respond or forfeit the prize to runner ups.  Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.  The contest is only valid for US and Canada.  I have to give that spill so no one sends me hate mail.  I want to thank the awesome crew at EA Chicago for participating in this and delivering some hot prizes!  If you’re itching for more ICON, check out my review of the game.

    hey i got a question. Is the verse allowed to inculde curses or harsh language? I would hope so considering its a Mature rated game, and if you play the game u can hear these words. lol

    Thanks,
