Goomba's Freebie of the Week: #5 - Holiday Edition [Ends 12/30/2007 10:30 PM EST]

 

Okay well as promised I'm back from a two week "vacation" of Christmas shopping, car shopping and lots and lots of other busy-work =) That being said, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you ^_^ As a special thank you, I'm returning with my weekly gift-giving and a bunch of new prizes as well. Many of the old ones have been accounted for, but you'll see some familiar ones returning. I've decided that after two weeks if a prize is not selected I will be listing it in my eBay store, that way I can keep the list fresh and perhaps move some merchandise that is otherwise just sitting around.

Now the reason you're here. The prize List!

01) Untold Legends (Sony PSP - Complete)
02) Viewtiful Joe (Gamecube - GH version)
03) Spiderman 2 (Gamecube - Complete)
04) Knuckles Plushie (Similar to the Sonic one)
05) 3-in-One Headphones for the DS Lite (includes built in Stereo FM Radio)
06) Tony Hawk's American Sk8land (Nintendo DS)
07) SSX Tricky (Nintendo Gamecube)
08) Prince of Persia: Sands of Time (Nintendo Gamecube - Some scratches, plays fine)
09) Soul Calibur III (Playstation 2 - Disc only)
10) $10 Gift Certificate (Goombucks) to my eBay auctions (No expiration)
11) James Bond: Agent Under Fire (Gamecube - Complete)
12) Madden 2002 (Gamecube - Complete)
13) Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon (Gamecube - Complete)
14) Star Wars: Bounty Hunter (Gamecube - Complete)
15) Gunpey DS (Nintendo DS - Complete)

The Questions:

1) Which prize would you select (if you're chosen as the winner you will get the prize that you chose in your response)

2) Do you own any classic video game systems? If so, do you still play them or are they just collecting dust?

Contest ends on Sunday Night (12/30/2007) at 10:30 PM (I've changed it from midnight to give me more time to do the videos and such).

---------------

BONUS: As a bonus, and for not having a contest next week I will be picking TWO winners. First winner has first choice and this contest is open to Goozex and CAG winners, but there will be only one pig drawing this time with two winners' names selected. Good luck!

 I would select Viewtiful Joe for the Gamecube, cuz I never played it and always meant to, and I finally picked up a Gamecube controller and memory card for the Wii since I joined Goozex.  Now I can start playing all the Gamecube games I missed.

As far as classic systems, I have a Sega Genesis that I break out to play Tecmo Bowl or some old EA NHL Hockey....ala Swingers with Vince Vaughn..."I made Gretzky bleed!"

I think I still have an ADAM computer somewhere in the attic too....remember that puppy, made from Colecovision....I played Buck Rogers all the time and Dragon's Lair...both games came on a cassette tape for media!

Merry Christmas all!

 

Always happy to see you doing your thing, Goomba!

1) Let's go with the Knuckles Plushie.

2) I have a SNES that is in a rubber tote, somewhere in my basement. My next gen systems see much more action, as does my PS2 (my son uses it a lot). I need to eventually pick up some more classic systems. I have games that I can't even play because I don't own the correspondin hardware.

 1) Untold Legends FTW! I just got a PSP last Monday, so that library needs some fattening up. Unlike me, who clearly does not need any more fat. In fact, if it was possible, I would donate some of my fat to my PSP library. Unfortunately, the doctors tell me our fats are incompatible, but if I find a DS Phat lying around, that might work.

2) The only "classic" system I own is a Genesis, and I'm pretty sure I lent it out to a friend a couple of years ago. Not too many games left for it, and even if I did want to play games on it, hooking it up woiuld be far too much of a hassle when I have most of my favorite games ready to play on my Wii (via Sonic Mega Collection/ Sonic Gems Collection, for Sonic games and Vectorman, my two favorite series on the Genesis). 

1) Untold Legends.

2) I used to own an Atari and Sega Mastersystem, but my parents threw them out. My oldest console would have to be my PS2 or my GBA. ^__^ 

Now I'm out on my Vegas vacation. Wish my luck at the tables/slots. ^__^

Happy Holidays 

If I won I would have to go with Star Wars: Bounty Hunter. The reason behind this is I had 2 games on my X-mas list 4 years ago and they where Metriod Prime and Star Wars: Bounty Hunter for the gamecube, if I got one. Well I did get one, it was bundled with Super Mario Sunshine and a 59 Block Memory Card, and Metriod Prime. So since then I have been looking for Star Wars: Bounty Hunter for the cube and when I did find it, it was to much money for it used. As a side note it is one of the games I have on my request list along with Jedi Knights Outcast 2. I dont have any old school systems anymore. I sold my SNES for $45 with 2 controllers and Super Mario World. If I had to pick a system to get I would have to say an Atari 2600 with Pitfall 1 and 2, Acid Drop (Homebrew), Adventure (kick butt game), and Atlantis. I would have to add to that list ET just for a laugh.

I am sorry that my post are all jumbled together but Goozex does not like the Wii for posting.

I'm really glad to see so much interest in my contests despite not having them for 1 1/2 weeks :) As I said I was extremely busy the last week but now I'm back in full force. I'll be doing a lot of things around the house, but the Prize pig was starting to get rather feisty and demanded that I hold one more contest before the new year starts. As always the Prize Pig has the final say :) It was my idea to throw in two prizes this week, but again I had to ask for his permission.

Glad to see a lot of people interested in Untold Legends for the PSP! As for all the holiday fat, don't worry Wii Play will be coming out soon enough ^_~ for now there's always DDR!

Duddy, I do have to ask...since you seem to post a LOT using your Wii. Do you use a USB keyboard or are you using Wii mote only? I was told that recently they added the ability to use the USB keyboard, but I was told that it didn't work in web typing yet...have you tried this yet? It may very well save you a lot of time if it does in fact work ^_^ Just a heads up. Thanks for entering! 

1) Which prize would you select (if you're chosen as the winner you will get the prize that you chose in your response)

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
I've been meaning to play this game, and this is a perfect chance to start!

2) Do you own any classic video game systems? If so, do you still play them or are they just collecting dust?

I have a Nintendo 64 sitting in the closet, parts and games scattered all over.
I also have a Dreamcast hooked up to the tv that also sees no action. Maybe I should give it away here...

Yep Goomba I do use a USB Keyboard. And on other sites I have no problem but it seems like only on Goozex is where I have the problem.

1) I'd choose out of the list Star Wars Bounty Hunter. 2) I play all of my systems still to this day, and they range from the Commodore 64 up to the ps2/gamecube, and hopefull soon, a wii.

1) Prince of Persia: Sands of Time

2) The only classic game system I still own is my N64. I dust it off to play Star Wars Episode I: Racer and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron now and then, but other than that it doesn't get much use. 

1. i would like the sonic plushie

2. i have a sega genisis and a dreamcast. The genesis is in my closet. I got the dreamcast a couple of months ago

and have been playing marvel vs.capcom 2, powersone 2, and project justice.
