Bit-Gamer Competition #2
Posted on 20th Dec 2010 at 11:31 by Joe Martin with 23 comments
Congratulations to the three winners from last week, who told us their favourite games ever over Twitter. We sent them each a copy of Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit on PlayStation 3 as a prize, but here's what the winners chose, in case you were wondering:
@dragronphreak -Pools of Radiance Ultima 7
@xmvx - Diablo 2
@Krisposkitt - BioShock
Now it's time for our second competition to celebrate the launch of Bit-Gamer.net. This time we've got a copy of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Codex Edition on Xbox 360 to send out - and, yes, this competition is open worldwide.
Want to win? Tell us over Twitter what games you are looking forward to!
To be in for a chance of winning, all you have to do is Follow @bit_gamer on Twitter and send us a tweet telling us which game you're most looking forward to next year.
The deadline for this competition is 5 January 2011.
We've already handed out a few unannounced prizes over Twitter too, and we expect to be giving out a lot more of as we've got a ludicrous amount of prizes to be given away. Congratulations to @darth_careful and @alastor2004, both of whom grabbed themselves copies of Diamond Dan on Steam.
We'll be bringing you a new competition after the New Year. Don't worry if you're not interested in signing up for Twitter either; you'll get a chance to win something soon!

Only the work of a few minutes to sign up :) Can't blame them far wanting some publicity.
Twitter is a convenient way for us to launch competitions like this and is a convenient way for those users to respond back to us. Creating a new page or form for simple one week competitions isn't convenient for anyone - especially as we'd then have to validate entries in a different way, probably involving the newsletter.

And the prizes have been consoles so far because the best ones (the PC orientated ones) are being saved til' last, yeah????
:o))
You'd need something like...a forum for that, and setting up a forum would be over....
...oh, wait :D
Love offers...is so cool it's actually blocked at my work :D
And the Enermax competition wants my home adress, and telephone number
Yeah likely, very likely
I mean, twitter gets attractive compared to that :D
Could be worse, you could be using Facebook
Oh No, your details? Are you one of those that still after 10 years + refuse to buy anything online due to security issues.
Just to note, I did tweet that Ultima 7 was my favorite game, not sure where you guys got Pools of Radiance. Don't get me wrong, Pools was a good game too, but I spent far too many hours playing U7.
Only just read this. Will correct the article. Sadly, the letter I just sent out with your prize is now going to make very little sense...
My esteemed fellow, if bit-tech spelt it right then there would be cause to worry.
Competitions aren't any fun because of the prizes or the flashy banners, the fun is in the community factor. And no, Twitter, is NOT community. You have a very own, wonderful forum full of creative people, proven by the massive succes of the Phobya competition. Please please please go back in that direction.
By the way, terms and conditions for those compos that ARE done by Dennis are broken, so i'm not even sure i can enter from abroad.
