So for the past week & a half, we’ve been holding a contest over on Twitter to give away an Xbox 360 andBut  a copy of Sacred 2. Plenty of you entered, but to my dismay, only one of you guys can win. I wish I could give everyone that entered an Xbox 360, but [...]

The console versions of Sacred 2 came out about two months ago, and while it’s recieved pretty decent reviews, a lot of people haven’t played it, or just didn’t have the chance to. Maybe you couldn’t afford the game’s $60 price tag. That’s understandable. Maybe you just don’t have a console to play it on. [...]

Big thanks to Pepsi and Harmonix for sending us this 1 of 30 limited edition Rock Band guitars designed by artist Matt Moore. Ripten’s guitar is the Xbox 360 version and numbered 22 of 30. You can enter to win it below by leaving a comment (one per reader) and telling us why you think you [...]

*gasp* Man, that title is a mouthful. The second Call of Duty: World at War (seriously, I refuse to call it Call of Duty 5.) map pack just hit, and while presumably thousands of people are having fun with it right now, you might’ve just hoped it would hit the proverbial online bargain bin soon [...]

If you remember with our last contest, I promised we’d have another one soon enough, and here it is- Ripten’s giving you a chance to win a free code for the Halo Wars Flaming Warthog! But this definitely won’t be the last contest we hold- the prizes will only get better with time, mon frêre. [...]

[Congratulations DarksideClassic! Shoot me an email at demi@ripten.com and I'll send you your code pronto! For everyone else, stay tuned to Ripten, as we'll be sure to have another contest soon, but this time, with a different method of entry. :) - Demi A.] Although the average human attention span is less than that of [...]

Looks like Ripten readers love them some PS3 exclusives, because Metal Gear Solid 4 put down Little Big Planet by a razor thin margin to win The Ripten Readers Game of 2008. Thank you all for your well thought out and fun comments, you guys really did do us proud and just reassured us that [...]

Would I like to win an Xbox 360 console?? Sure!! Wait, what the hell do Super Mario and Yoshi have to do with an Xbox 360? This appears to be a University campus message board, so let’s hope the person who made this isn’t an advertising major. Sheesh. Source: flickr.com

Valve have announced an official contest today entitled “Dude, Where’s My Thumb?” that challenges budding zombie hunters to take a photo of themselves in front of one of the many advertisements for the game (in London, New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle and the San Francisco Bay Area).

If you were anything like me, your favorite movie growing up was (is?) the original Star Wars Trilogy. In fact, even if you aren’t anything like me at all you probably love the original Star Wars movies. As a result, you get a lot of crazy fan art like homemade storm trooper outfits and, you [...]

We here at Ripten love our community- almost to the point where it’s illegal, really. But while we’re standing at a minimal 500 yard distance, the least we can do is give you free stuff, right? Earlier in the day, USA Today ran a contest in which the first 15,000 people to email them would [...]

First off I want to thank everyone for their patience. This was a very hard decision to make and it involved much discussion internally. In the end we decided that the art would be awarded to the person we believed showcased that they were the biggest Mega Man fan.

I wanted to get an update out to everyone who entered the Mega Man sketch contest. We will be reviewing the entries made before the contest deadline and deciding on a winner shortly. Thank you for entering. Chad-

There you have it. E3 is over and here is the list of all the swag I got for the “win my swag” contest: Bottle Nuka-Cola and a pretty sick Fallout 3 viewfinder (courtesy of Bethesda) Legendary comic book (courtesy of Spark Unlimited) Gamecock socks, Gamecock shirt, and Gamecock bottle opener. Full version of Spore [...]
