THE WINNERS:
★The Most Creative also longest comments: Corey LEE
With total of 3 very long comments, one of them is:
@Mass Effect 2 (Xbox 360): "This game requests that you search the galaxy to recruit some of its most dangerous individuals. Instead, I wrote my own version of who we should recruit to play this awesome game. I’ve based it off university students so hopefully you might all have a laugh here!
1) The Commerce Student. In other words, myself. The commerce student is the banker of the mission, the individual who sets it upon himself to distribute not only credits but omni gel, morality, equipment and anything my group will steal, persuade or pause and reload the game to get our hands on. As I only have a limited amount of each resource, my methods of distribution within my group are highly biased and inherently unfair. I don’t abide by the economic standards of the Citadel (because I let the council die in the first game) but by which character’s sex scene is the best . (Sorry Kaidan, you automatically lose here as I never wanted to see you in action anyway). At the very least, I will ensure that my team are armed to the bare minimum with armour and weaponry. When I say bare minimum, think of Kaidan standing in front of a thresher maw in his underpants with a Level 1 Brawler pistol. Then think of me a mile away sitting in the Mako wondering when my dinner is going to be ready.
Oh yeah, and one more thing I forgot to mention.
Level 1 Brawler pistols don’t even exist...
2) The Law Student. I consider this member of the team to be the most knowledgeable due to their advanced reading skills. Chances are, I’ll be hitting the mute button often during the mission so it helps to have someone with time on their hands to read all those boring, codex entries about this planet and that warship and this alien race I probably won’t get to play as until the next game. The Law Student is also a master at persuasion as detailed in the conversation log below
Hanar: The human is an idiot.
Law Student: No I’m not!
Hanar: This one does not need to refer to the human in first person in order to get this one’s point across.
Law Student: Point taken...
Indeed.
3) The Med Student. A lifesaver, literally. The Med Student will do whatever it takes to protect the other members and has always been seen as a walking supply depot for medi-gel. The Med Student has been able to take the usage of medi-gel’s adhesive properties to new levels. Sealing all sorts of things from a Quarian’s breathing apparatus to a Salarian’s non-existent eyelids, etc. The Med Student is a valuable member of the group although they tend to have one bad habit.
Completely sealing their hands to their gun...
4) The Science Student. An individual utterly fascinated by ‘interacting’ with other alien races. The Science student will do everything from starting fights with Krogan bouncers to trying to tie a Hanar’s tentacles in to a knot all for the sake of research. The Science student’s greatest achievement however has been its recorded observation of interaction with a Keeper.
5am: Keeper enters the room
7am: Keeper rearranges the furniture
9pm: Keeper enters the bedroom
9:30pm: Tackle the Keeper from behind onto the bed.
9:35pm: Keeper melts instantly into a puddle of acid. Request Med Student’s assistance
10:30pm: Face is completely sealed to Med Student’s gun and hands...
5) The Engineering Student. The only individual whose field of study is already classified in-game as the ‘Engineer’. This member handles the operational controls for all in-game vehicles (Joker is on permanent sick leave) and has come through time and time again to rescue the team out of tight spots, like Kaidan’s sex scene. Speaking of sex scenes, that is the Engineering student’s ultimate objective. To experience one of his own.
Preferably with Tali. But getting her to open up will be a tough nut to crack.
6) The Arts Student. And last, and also the least, this person. I’m sure that arts students are good for something? A human shield perhaps? I’m not entirely sure to be honest.
Because the last time I saw one, he was trying to pet a thresher maw in his underpants.
:)"
★The Most Active Contestant: Peter ILIFFE
With the most comments during the competition in total of 16 comments, some of the comments are:
@Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Game of the Year Edition (GOTY) (Xbox 360): " Awesome story and fantastic multiplayer. You'll be in suspense the whole time you're playing. I personally enjoyed the single player campaign so much I've replayed it a dozen times!"
@Mass Effect (With Bonus Disc) (Classics) (Xbox 360): " Enjoyable game. It's left a "Massive Effect" on my view of RPG games on the 360. Loving it!"
@Fable II (Xbox 360): "While not the most gorgeous of games. It's simply just great fun with unlimited adventuring. What more could you want then a pet dog and a spade to dig up treasure!"
@Left 4 Dead 2 (Xbox 360): "Like killing zombies? You'll love this game. MAXIMUM replay value. Single player, multiplayer or co-op. You decide - there is something for everyone. Hack and slash or shoot and blast. The decision is yours! Top game..."
Aside from the two winners, we will also provide the following honorable mention with FREE EXPRESS shipping for their next purchase from us
HONORABLE MENTION:
★Babak SARRAF
@BioShock 2 (Xbox 360): "The city of Rapture -- ("ecstasy: a state of being carried away by overwhelming emotion; "listening to sweet music in a perfect rapture"- Charles Dickens") -- how I long to reunite with your shattered walls and dreams, for man was not born to believe in limits and limitations, but in opportune opportunity -- and with Adam and Eve opportunity came with all its glory, and here I stand, in Rapture, and I dream of a world unbound by petty politics and pretty farce; a world of true innovation. Oh Rapture, how I long to revisit, long to relive, long to master your world of desire. Oh Rapture, we shall rise together, we shall rise and show the world, what began with Andrew Ryan and ended with the One shall be reborn as the true beacon of human potential. Together, we shall dance to the tune of humanity, and from your ashes and my toil, we will be unstoppable.
- My monologue as I place the Bioshock 2 disc into my drive. Kthxbye. "
★Ben KI
@Demon's Souls (PS3): " This game is an addiction.
A commonly brought up topic is the difficulty: Yes, if are hit, it hurts. Once you begin, you'll find it's punishingly hard, but at the same time you'll soon realise how rewarding that is.
Once you get a real 'feel' for the controls, you'll find yourself immersed in an extremely atmospheric interactive environment. You'll crush rubble away from your path and slash through limping zombie bodies in a way that is never feels repetitive.
There's nothing more satisfying than tactfully luring a group of enemies into an area where you have the advantage, then flanking, dodging and backstabbing until none are left standing and you emerge without taking a single hit.
Don't be dismayed if at first you do not succeed. Particularly in the beginning, you are meant to die (there's even a section where you are scripted against overwhelming odds and are meant to).
This is a game not for the impatient, but for the intelligent, careful and above all: dedicated player."
congrats again to our four lucky commentators, we will be in contact with you soon.
