To kick off our relaunch I have a little giveaway action for you! First the rules:- Only one win per person - Entering more than once per day doesn't increase your chances - You MUST be a registered forum member to win - If you are under the age of 18, you must have parental permission to accept a prize (some are rated M) - We are not responsible for lost mail, taxes, tarrifs, or fees. (I'll provide the shipping) - Your entry expires as soon as a winner is named. You may enter again for the next contest unless you have previously won - Console Gold employees and family members are not eligble - Rules are subject to change without notice OK, the legal crap out of the way...we have copies of Hitman: Contracts for Xbox, PS2, and PC as well as Hitman: Contracts calendars, copies of Ninja Gaiden, and the very cool book Blue Wizard is About to Die from Seth Flynn Barkan. How do I enter?Watch this space for a new question and then write our contest email address with the following (revealed later): a.) Your answer b.) Your forum name The questions will be easy to answer if you make use of the search function on Console Gold's front page. A special thanks to Tecmo and Eidos for their support on our launch. We appreciate you, and we are glad you appreciate us.

I figure I should mention that the only real personal information you are giving me is your zip (so I can see where my readers are) and your email address if you want to try your hand at winning a prize. Your personal information will not be given out or sold in any way - this is just for us to improve what we do and understand your needs and habits a bit better. Cool?
