I play golf, umpire HS/college/semi-pro baseball and referee HS basketball in what little free time I have.

Do not enter me though as I already own Metro. Good on you for the giveaway!

ive already won before, but my hobbies outside PCs are Hockey card collecting and reading. Ive been collecting hockey cards since 10 years old. My current collection is small but I have several autograph cards and numerous jersey cards to go along with 5 or 6 sets and over 300 rookie cards.

Reading, I guess. Though I do far too much on the web these days as opposed to an actual (e)book.

I like outdoors stuff too like hiking but in the city again at present so...meh.

My hobby outside computers is watching TV! Action and sci-fi Movies especially.

Great competition you've got here. I've run a couple like this myself on TPU and it was awesome.

Finally, please count me out of the competition as I've already got this game. I just wanted to post in this great thread. (btw, I really do like watching TV)

I play acoustic guitar, music is my second love. It chills me out after a stressful day and I love to try my hand at songwriting every now and again when I am feeling particularly inspired.

I have A4 pads full of the stuff, it's a very theraputic hobby and has got me through some dark times. Count me in......It will give me a reason to splurge out on a second GTX 560ti

Awesome game Dub! I have the game, and can say it's really good! and it favors Nvidia. I beat it with my GTX285 and I struggled to stay 30fps with a Q9550 @ 3.8Ghz, but newer cards shouldn't have any problems with it. Oh and I just finish the game(Rage) I won from you. It was kickass as well.. I didn't really care for the ending but great game none the less. You're give away's are great! I hope it makes the person that wins feel as great as I did! I told everybody I know and grinning like a possum eating peach seeds the whole time! Just for SnG's (shit's and giggles) my hobby is lifting weights.

Just finished more auto work and wanted to check in on the thread. Some of these replies are hilarious, and I really do appreciate all the participation from those interested and who already own the game or have won from me before

I will close the thread and select a winner tonight at around 7PM Pacific.


It looks like in the past my giveaways were all a series of 5 at a time, so I will follow this one with my final giveaway for April. Game will either involve zombies or be a 'sidescrolling game of action, puzzles and platforming' ().

Astronomy, which will eventually involve computers, but I'm a long way from that. Why do I choose the expensive hobbies?

I'm gonna sound like a real old man here (even though I'm not). In my spare time I like to do a lot of dog walking and spending time with the niece's an nephew other than that I'll be keeping the house all clean & tidy for when the girlfriend comes home from work with the bacon.

My hobby outside of computers is Ultimate Frisbee! I play pickup games with a group of friends on weekdays and some weekends. For those of you who've never heard of it, it's a mix between soccer, rugby, (American) football and frisbee.
