Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. I have been wanting this game for some time now. I have bought every Counter-Strike released with exception of this one. I have not bought this one because I have a baby boy on the way and I'm saving every penny I get. If I could win CS:GO I would be so happy so please pick me!!

Thanks Stinger! I'm currently putting together a giveaway for the WCG team for their hard work, and that should be up in a few days, maybe after this one ends, just in time for the weekend!

Please enter me for Crysis 2. I'd really like the try out the DX11 pack with it and see how well my computer runs with it. Also I played it a little bit at a friends house and the campaign actually looks decent unlike most other FPS games out there.

Sign me up for crysis 2, I would like to see how it looks on my new rig and get to try it out before crysis 3 is launched. I started crunching for the help conquer cancer challenge, haven't been crunching as much as of late due my schoolwork using the computer as it is end of term. I'll have to leave it here when i head home for 3 weeks, not sure if I should leave it running unattended that long.

The dawn of a new age may be upon us. As the Mayan calendar nears its renewal period all eyes and hearts are focused on a basic primordial fear that we may not be the center of the universe, may not be more than a speck of dust in the wonder that is all of creation. Who can say what trials and tribulations lie before us, and who really knows what difference we will make in the overall scheme of the vastness that is the universe. Perhaps we will all perish in a flash of light, or perhaps we will continue on, endeavoring to advance our race so that some day we may see all of the wonders the universe has to offer. Until then, Play computer games, because why not?

Don't enter me, I just wanted to write complete sentences.
Thanks once again, manofthem

Crysis 2

I am entering for Crysis 2 because I definitely enjoyed and still enjoy Crysis, the original. I would like to try out the new gameplay mechanics and enjoy the new challenges such as only being able to hold two weapons (I think that's right, eh?). The new suit system (compared to C1) would be a fun new way to re-learn and replay a game as a badazz Nanosuit soldier. Also, I'm kicking myself in the shins for missing out on the ballin Steam Black Friday deal that had Crysis 1, Crysis Warhead and Crysis 2 ME for only $20! I'd like to redeem a bit of myself for scoring a Crysis 2 from a generous sir.

Not to mention I've got a new Sapphire 7950, 8 GB RAM, AMD 8350 CPU, Gig 990 MoBo and CPU cooler in the mail for a recent BF3 purchase. I found my PC can barely run BF3, so why not get another recent and demanding game to test out the new rig in a couple weeks

Thanks for the opportunity!

Crysis 2 - Hoping to try out the Crysis 2 multiplayer and see how many FPS I can get on my rig. I am also looking forward to playing the campaign and see how the sand box ish shooter feels. I kept getting lost while playing on my friends account

I would vote for GO and play the odds, but really from what I've seen with previews/trailers and whatnot I'm really not too impressed. Would rather have something I can at least use to make my system sweat, and test out some overclocking for my new rig.

If it is allowed to enter it for other people, I would like to enter for CS:GO for my a bit younger brother, wants the game so much. He likes all of Valve Games, in his birthday last July our dad bought him Valve Complete Pack with the 50% sale but it didn't had CS:GO in it then. I would probably buy Valve Complete Pack(I rarely buy games because of money problems) on the expected Xmas sale then so I wouldn't need it personally.

If not then I would like to enter for Crysis 2, I have tried the Multiplayer and it is so good. I have also played both Crysis and Warhead and I was disappointed to what happened with Crysis 2(became multiplatform with lead in consoles) but since it already got a DX11 patch I thought I may give it a chance.

I think they meant that their previous PC couldn't handle BF3, so they bought that setup to play BF3 nicely.
