So, here’s the thing… We’ve got so much swag from E3, we can’t give it all away just yet. Most of the items are for games that aren’t out yet (like download codes), and we also have some add-ons for Kinect as well. Rest assured, we’ll give it all away soon, but each item will be much more relevant when we do. This will include download codes, t-shirts, flash drives, and more.
While we don’t typically run two simultaneous contests, there are a few items that we want to share with you now. For starters, we’re giving away the only Avatar swag item found at E3 this year: An animated Avatar helicopter prop (from the Project Natal Cirque Du Soleil event). We’re guessing you haven’t seen it anywhere, and we’ve got two of them to share with you. Available for the low, low price of 99,999 Microsoft points, you can either buy it with your life savings of points, or win one here. Here’s how to enter:
- One code will be given away at random in our forums. To enter, check out this thread. (If you haven’t signed up for our forums yet, we strongly encourage you to. This is the easiest contest to enter yet.)
- The second code will be given away on Twitter or Facebook. UPDATE: Once we hit 1800 followers on Twitter or 300 fans on Facebook, we will give away the code! You can retweet this tweet to help spread the word:
Help us hit 1800 followers, and we’ll give away a Kinect Adventures helicopter prop! http://bit.ly/bqjhRv

For those of you who already got their copy of Red Dead Redemption, Rockstar has already revealed a new challenge for you to undertake. Roaming around the multiplayer world will be Rockstar employees with big targets on their backs. Kill one of these “Rockstars” and have the chance to be immortalized as a Multiplayer character in the upcoming DLC for Red Dead Redemption. I won’t touch the multiplayer until I’ve tackled the single player, but after you’ll definitely see me hunting these Rockstars down. Details after the break.
