Bag O’ Swag Contest: Why I’m A True Gamer

So here it is folks. I got a huge Little Big Planet Bag O’ Swag to give away and I’m not gonna make it easy. This time you have to do a little work to win all the goodies in this bag. I want you to tell the world why you are a true gamer. I want one luscious paragraph of reasons why you will never be seen as a fanboy. Just keep it simple and to the point.

The winner will be announced on the Warzone next week. Send only one entry to contests@thebitbag.com

Here is an example of how your entry should look:

I am a True Gamer because I love playing games. I don’t care what system the game is on, if it’s good, I’m going to play it. I show no devotion to a company or the black box that plays my games. Whether it’s the Sega CD, Dreamcast, Playstation 3 or Xbox 360, you’ll find me playing a wide variety of games on those systems. I have to play everything which means that I must own every system, even if I have to eat Ramen until payday to afford my habit. I will game until I’m gone because I am a True Gamer!

The Winner Of The Name That Swag Contest Has Been Chosen

Congratulations to John Ryan from San Diego for winning the ‘Name That Swag Contest’. From here on out, the name of all of our swag contests will be, Bag O’ Swag!

I’d like to thank everyone who entered the contest and hope you all will be back for our next Bag O’ Swag contest this July!

It’s The Name That Swag Contest Giveaway

Pictured above is all the swag I procured from the GDC08.  I must admit, GDC has better swag than any convention I’ve ever been to, including E3.  Microsoft was just handing out wireless 360 controllers if you let them scan your tag.  Easy as that huh?  Well I’ve decided to start giving my swag away after every convention.  I usually give most of it away to my friends but now you have a chance to get my swag.  Read the rest of this entry »
