Two games up for giveaway, both Steam; Sleeping Dogs and Dear Esther.

I got emotional and bought Sleeping dogs a while ago, and I never even added it to steam. So someone else might as well make good use of it! And I'm sure there's someone who wants a copy of Dear esther more than me.


The stipulations be as follows:

Member at least a month with 30 posts.
Steam Account required
If you don't claim your game after you've won within 48 hours; someone else gets it.
The giveaway will end friday night at 12pm Central time, unless I forget. Drawing will take place then as well.

To enter, say which game you're wanting, and describe your favorite scene or level of any game.

I'm in for Dear Esther.
My favorite level... Hmm, so many to choose from.
Off the top of my head, it would be Ganondorf's castle from Ocarina of Time. Having six separate rooms that were dungeons themselves was pretty badass, and it tied the six sages and their dungeons into the castle. Then after completing those, you still had another floor and a couple forms of Ganondorf to face(Zelda tennis, anyone?)
The first time making it to that battle is one of my fondest memories of gaming, so yeah, that would have to be my favorite level.:toast:

Sneekpeet was correct, the BST section is not for contests, but since it's games this is allowed in the games section, so I moved it here!

oh my bad missed it on the laptop.

The reason I want Dear Esther is different, its just pure exploration their which just doesnt exist in other games like that where there is really no pressure. Where as games like Skyrim are exploration with OMG DRAGONS!!!. Dear Esther just offers that wow this looks great, Its one of those play and it relax kinda games to me.

As for a scene in a game,
the ending scene of Metal Gear Solid 4 when Big Boss and Solid Snake meet face to face with no animosity just man to man
