Win a Skyrim Xbox 360! (UK users only)

Post » Thu Jul 26, 2012 12:58 am

Everyone seen this?

http://www.bethblog.com/2012/07/25/skyrim-xbox-360-contest-for-the-united-kingdom-2/#more-19574

A good time to be a 360 player, and right on the back of no Dawnguard for PC or PS3 yet. Bethesda trolling much??? :D

Hey PS3 and PC users, this is your best chance to play Dawnguard ;-P

I've entered.

It's the obligatory 4gig contest Xbox. Why am I not surprised that those things are probably illegal to not use in contests? Sorry... I just find the 4 gig Xbox prize weird everytime. Good luck to those who do enter the contest!

yeah 4G is a bit silly.
Although you could just buy a separate HD for it.

Then again, if I won it, the ONLY thing I'd play on it is Skyrim, so maybe 4G would be enough :P

If i won that, i'd be buried with it. On my deathbed, i'd put Skyrim in it and play it for the first, and last time.

I'd probably sell it to be able to play skyrim on a good PC.

By the Nine, it is the most beautiful gaming instrument that I have ever laid my eyes on. I must quickly take a plane to UK and sign up.

Yeah 4gigs is awful. Its pretty easy to take your old hard drive from another xbox and put it into the slim, but still. Who wants to go through that effort? The console looks amazing however.

A free xbox is a free xbox. Dont matter to me what it comes with, when its free, works and looks as nifty as that one does.

The newer system's hardrive is internal. You can just pop 'em off anymore.

True but you can still get an old drive to fit a new slim if you dont mind a little work to do so ;

I have just deleted most of the posts from this thread, the topic is about winning an XBox, not about platform bashing. Stay on topic.

Because my post that was actually related to the Xbox being won was deleted, I'll post it again.

I don't really see why they thought it would be a good idea to take a step back with the new hardware. Why would you remove a perfectly good feature and force people to void the warranty to just put a new hard drive in? it's pretty stupid. 4GB is not nearly enough to do anything these days, when you consider DLC can be upwards of 500MB in size.

Eh? You can buy drives for the slim that dont void the warranty and transfer all your content to it easily. The point of the video is that its for those that dont care about voiding the warranty. And in any case as I said its free, you dont complain about it when its free and in perfect condition.
