I've never played any of the Assassin's Creed games and with this giveaway it will stay that way. I've got copies of GTAV and CoD:AW (Exo Zombies w/ Malkovich, Paxton, etc looks like fun- maybe) on PS4 that I haven't touched and I preordered Homeworld Remastered on PC, so I'll never have the time for a game like this :D Plus I hear it would run like crap on my GTX 680 4GB @ 1440 :laugh:

Rules:
USA Only
Can't already have the game, no EXCEPTIONS
Must have a uPLAY account (yeah, that's a killer but it is what it is- plus even the STEAM version needs uPLAY)


Eligibility:
Member since at least Jan 1, 2015 or earlier
250 Posts or be thanked at least 250 times
Must not be on my ignore list (don't worry its only a select few...)

How to Enter:
Keeping with the UNITY theme I want to see your books, magazines, TV shows, etc that promote UNITY.

I'll post last call when interest has run its course and select a winner shortly thereafter.
 
Eyyyy awesome giveaway! Can't enter as my books are eh and my rig can't run it. Good luck to all entering!

That what you mean by unity? They're mostly Maxis games but there were many contributors under the Maxis and EA brands.

Oh, honorable mention (also in there) goes to Spore which is basically the culmination of the idea of "sim."

Easiest way to show them all is by their disks. I apologize for the blurry pictures...

There are too many disks to take a picture of them all. I didn't crop so much so you can see the depth of it. The expansions are behind the "base game" disk. I literally had to move these three games to their own binders because there were too many. I kept having to shuffle hundreds of disks to make room for them.

Damn, that's a trip down memory lane. 8|

May roll this into the WCG giveaway if there is limited interest, thanks!
 
awwwweeeee..... USA only :(

anyway, @theonedub thats one awesome giveaway. Just dropping to say thanks :rockout:

Have played the AC black flag but not finish yet but I like that game :peace:
 
I'm confused by the entry rules (the last one). You want people to post personal pictures of promotional pieces solely for Assassin Creed: Unity that they kept? If so I don't think you are going to see any real entries.
 
Personal pics? No, not a requirement. Promotional pieces? Not sure what that is, honestly.

Unity is about being joined or together, its an idea not a reference to the game. So when I say post something about unity you could've posted a photo of the United Nations, that McDonalds commercial with Joker giving flowers to Batman, or Dave Chapelle's Unity ring (that would've been an instant win, BTW).

I wasn't aware that part was ambiguous at all.
 
Thanks for the giveaway.

Not too sure if this counts, but I'll post some of my aircraft related stuff.

First up are my PS2 games. I have all combat aircraft related games on the system aside from Lethal Skies 2 and Heatseeker. I am not counting the two Energy Air Force games because they were not released in the US. Some other random games shown.



Next up are some magazines. Mostly Combat Aircraft and Air Forces Monthly (from some years back). Please excuse the flipped images; Photobucket/Imagur/whatever keep flipping them upside down for whatever reason.








Some of my models which were not done very well. I am sure you can tell the kit builds from the pre-builts. They were done by hand and not airbrush, which is why the paint looks a bit odd.







Not going to bother with all my PC flight sims because most are digital, but I will show off my collection of flyable DCS World aircraft:



Fictional color schemes I made for DCS:

Did not show all of my magazines/models, but hopefully this counts. Good luck to the winner.

Added pics of the disks to this post. I put them in spoiler tags so it wouldn't interfere with loading the page.


Edit: Here's a demonstration of unity most people are oblivious to. Three large harvesters, a very large tractor and grain wagon, and 2-4 semis running the grain to elevators. It's a dance that happens every year on the Great Plains (aka "fly over country") of the USA.

Any more interest?
 
When I think of Unity I think of one of my favorite bands. 311 (and DonInKansas) is down for the Unity!

Been very busy and had an emergency hospitalization of one of my dogs, will have this closed out on Friday.

Dog is recovering, BTW. Think she'll make a full recovery.
 
Don't worry, onedub. Soon dog will be back to answering your phone.

Crap bro, what happened man?

They thought there might have been an intestinal blockage, but xrays were negative and blood work OK. She was severely dehydrated and needed IV fluids so she stayed overnight. Follow up xrays were also negative. She's doing a lot better now- was probably a severe GI bug.
