Contest: Halo 3 Model iPhone app

January 29th, 2010 Christian Hughes 2 comments

Wednesday, after much anticipation, @Zaam released his first iPhone app. This first app is based off of one of his web apps that lets you choose different armor and color combinations for your Halo 3 character, be it Spartan or Elite. You can find a link to download the app from Zaam’s new site, and check out his future releases there as well.

The app is very fun to just try and see how different armor types would look with one or another. Plus it gives you all of the color choices from the actual Halo 3 game. So, if you’re thinking of trying out a new combination of armors and colors you can now do it without wasting time turning on your 360 and loading up the game.

We have three codes to giveaway. One will be given away on here, one at Mobility Digest, and the third will be randomly awarded to a Twitter user (see below).

Here are the rules:

  • Contest ends on Friday, February 5.
  • You can enter via all 3 methods (mentioned above).
  • On Twitter, you can enter once each day until the end date.
  • How to enter on the websites: all you have to do is post a comment with a reason of why you want the app, or with a comment about why you visit the sites.
  • To enter on Twitter just retweet this message:

Win the new “Halo3 Model” iPhone app from @Zaam! RT and follow @Xbox360Digest to win! http://tr.im/Halo3ModelContest #Zaam

Free Guitar Hero: Van Halen!

August 11th, 2009 Lucas Larimore No comments

For all of you who thought you might put it down forever:  Think again.  From now until the end of October, you can get Guitar Hero: Van Halen for free.  All you have to do is get a specially marked copy of the upcoming Guitar Hero 5, and mail in the rebate form. Check the offer out here.

Yes that is two games for the price of one. And, yes it is legitimate (offered by Activision). And yes, I have already pre-ordered my copy. Now I can get Johnny Cash and Van Halen for the price of one. I’m squealing like a school girl now.
