Find out if your name made the list.

There’s not really a whole lot to this post other than to reveal if you’re among one of the lucky 8 winners selected for the Commando 3 giveaway. Five of those winners got the best deal of all as they’ll be among the few who can enjoy the Super SF 2 Turbo HD Remix beta! Double bonus for fighting fanatics.

So without further ado, here are the random names who were picked:

  • Bbobb
  • Timber
  • Lawd
  • Do You LIke Erotic
  • cka

The remaining winners for the PS3 version include:

  • Ashen Victor
  • Firstblood
  • Josh *

** If an asterisk is next to your name and you don’t have a PS3, please get in touch with us so that we can offer you a alternative prize. Congrats to all the winners and stay tuned for future giveaways!

The time has come.

We’ve all been waiting for this moment. Starting tomorrow, the official Super SF 2 Turbo HD Remix beta will be released on Xbox Live. In case you haven’t heard, the beta was included as an add-on bonus for those who’ve purchased Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 for Xbox Live Arcade. So yes, that means you’ve actually have to throw down a bit of e-funds to be among the first to relive this enhanced arcade classic.

I bet you wanna be among the first to play it don’t you? Well GotNext is giving (5) lucky winners for the 360.

Update @ 1:22 p.m.  We’ve just discovered PS3 owners won’t be able to participate, but we’ll still hand you a key to get Commando 3 for the PS3 if you’re eager to play it. Sorry for the confusion guys.

To qualify, simply tell us how the correct command on how to perform Vega’s Rolling Izuna Backdrop super move. (Oh, and we’re speaking about the domestic version, so no moves intended for Mr. Psycho Crusha or your entry will be considered GGPO.)

Send your entry to contests@got-next.com with the subject header “Super SF2 Turbo HD Remix”. All correct entries will be placed into a random drawing. Winners will be selected on June 25, 11:30 EST and contacted via email and announced right here on GotNext. Let me repeat that - you’ve got 24hours from the time of this post to enter!

So put away that e-dough and take a shot at our giveaway. Who knows, you may end up a winner and then you can show Seth Killian your awesome skillz.


The beta is scheduled to run for approximately eight weeks, ending around August 20 (or whenever Capcom has decided that they’re sick of getting owned). Hm, me owning Seth Killian — I’d cherish that day.

So while you all start counting down the minutes, here’s a few new batch of screens featuring the Shotokan Duo to help fight that burning sensation to show the rest of the world just how awesome you really are. Check back tomorrow for two HD-quality videos.

Choose from over 80 different units to buy and upgrade; only effective strategies will guarantee the success of your armada in battle.

Enter and win. That is, if you're randomly selected!

It's been awhile since we've hosted a humble little giveaway, but lo and behold - we've emerged with a special treat for DS owners. By now, many of you have heard about THQ's Drawn to Life (and if you haven't, might we suggest you read up on the reviews? Ours will be coming up this week). We'll just get right down to it. Send in your full name and along with a valid email address to be entered in our random drawing which should be addressed to contests@got-next.com with the subject header entitled: Drawn to Life Contest. Two weeks from now, we'll select (3) names from the pool of entries. That's right… 3 lucky winners will receive a personal copy of this slick DS game. The rules are really simple:

Family members of the GotNext site are ineligible to enter.

You must be live in the United States or Canada.

Only one entry per person.

Entries received after Dec. 7 11:59 EST will no longer be accepted. Winners will be announced on the GotNext blog (that's here by the way) on Dec. 10 and directly contacted via email. At that point, the selected winners have 48 hours to respond or their selected entry will be considered forfeit and new winners from the remaining pool will be chosen.

GotNext reserves the right to alter or suspend the contest at any time. (Right now, we can't really think of any reasons to, but this is just written here to cover our butts y'know?)

That said, good luck everyone!

Seeing as I can no longer justify making direct news articles about gaming sweepstakes (with a little help from Travis), I’ve decided to post them here on GotSpace. The latest one comes from Konami who are celebrating Frogger’s 25th anniversary. Sorry, this entry isn’t calling out high-score junkies or artists in particular, merely people that can show off their “inner Frog”. O_o

Sup cosplay. I kid. All you have to do is send off a photo of yourself wearing (or doing) something that represents Frogger… all qualified entries will be entered in a drawing to win a Frogger scooter and a helmet. The contest kicks off on Sept. 11. Weekly winners will face off against each other in a final vote to determine who will win the Grand Prize package.
