Boy how time flies. It's that special time of year where we give back to the community that gives to us all year round. We've done some pretty great things as a community this year including an awesome Halo 3 giveaway and of course a kick ass contribution to Child's Play.

With so many games being released this fall we thought the best thing to do would be to give out some games...for FREE. So over the next couple of days we'll be giving out some games and other goodies to any of our members.

How do you enter to win? Simply send an email to EAGiveaway@gmail.com with the prize code in the subject. What is the prize code? That little bolded section in the prize list. Unless otherwise denoted everyone in the world is eligible to win! Only one entry per item will be accepted.

Here are the prizes up for grabs for December 12th, 2007.

Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations for the Nintendo DS - ACE1
Godzilla Unleashed for the Nintendo DS - GOD1
Timeshift for the Xbox 360 - TIME1
Overlord for the Xbox 360 - LORD1
Empire Earth 3 for the PC - EMPIRE1
Crysis for the PC - CRYSIS1
Hellgate London for the PC - HELL1
Wild Arms 4 and Wild Arms 5 for the PS2 - ARMS1
Guitar Hero 3 Original Soundtrack - GHTRACK1

Winners will be announced tomorrow morning.

One entry per item per day? Multiple entries allowed per game?

Can I enter once for Crysis and once for Overlord?

[Deadend]

I'd feel pretty down if I win Hellgate, only to be unable to win... say Rock Band later in the week.

But I entered for 2 games today.

[Digital Outlaw]

Entered and Lost

[Codicier]

What are the contest rules?

[bapenguin]

One entry per item per day? Multiple entries allowed per game?

Can I enter once for Crysis and once for Overlord?

One entry per item. The giveaway for each item won't last more than 1 day, so yes, 1 per day.

[Noiz]

I'm guessing we need to put our usernames in the body or something, right?

No. But you can if you want.

[Abednigo]

One entry per item per day? Multiple entries allowed per game?

Can I enter once for Crysis and once for Overlord?

You can enter once for all of them. I did. :)

[Mr.Green]

Awesome!

Thanks staff! :)

[Codicier]

No. But you can if you want.

In that case, how will you know who won?

[Noiz]

No. But you can if you want.

Would it increase my chance of winning? ;)

Thanks for making it a global compo too. You guys rock.

[Cupelix]

I, however, think you should have to pick a single item that you want to enter for and not be allowed to try to win all of them. Put a little strategy in to trying to figure out your odds for winning any particular item!

[bapenguin]

In that case, how will you know who won?

You'll get an email back for verification.

[Codicier]

You'll get an email back for verification.

Gotcha. Thankee for yon' giveaways good sir! I will enter when I get home. :)

[Ozena]

Awesome! This is when I know the Holidays official start . . . SantaBap and crew get generous.

Which would work great...if nobody had more than one email account, user account, and potential shipping address.

[nixpayn]

ask not what your evil avatar can do for you, but what you can do for your evil avatar!

but its nice when evil avatar does something for you too :)

[zrikz]

Well, this is my 2nd or 3rd year doing this and I've yet to win, so someone wish me luck so you don't win and I do! =/

Crysis or Overlord please!

[NoName]

Entered and Lost

Don't worry, I'm right there with you :).

Until I win the copy of Crysis, then you'll see a happy Noname.

[Gorvi]

Entered. I could really go for the Phoenix Wright, Wild ARMs, or Overlord prizes. :)

[roboninja]

I feel a little guilty entering for DS games when I do not have a DS. But, I promise, all I need is the impetus of a free game to get me to buy one :)

[Kielaran]

Ace, God, and Time here.

[Lon Lon Rabbit]

Hooray, dirty foreigners are allowed to enter this time!

Thanks for the hard and generous work as always.

[Draconis]

Sent E-mails out. Accidentally sent out two Empire earth ones, so feel free to ignore one. Sorry about that.

[Kelegacy]

I'm in for a couple. Thanks for the hard work and great prizes.

[Brain]

I'm with Cupelix, <3 EvilAvatar. Entered for Crysis!

[Mashidar]

I always enjoy the holiday giveaway's. Good luck to those that enter and thanks to all the folks that make evil avatar a wonderful site to visit. Coming to this site really changed how I game online and made me feel that XBL was really worth it for the first time.

[PathMaster]

One email per item or one email with all of them?

[bapenguin]

One email per item or one email with all of them?

1 Per item.

[PathMaster]

1 Per item.

Thanks for the clarification.

[Bone]

Entered, awaiting my stack of games ;)

[wiredInsanity]

God, I love this time of year!! I won a boomchair two years ago and my neices have been rocking out on that ever since. Thanks guys.

[saulob]

amazing, I love EV!! nice one :D
for all the world... great.

[shunoshi]

Woohoo! Holiday giveaway time! BAP, you guys rock! :D

[Stevercakes]

*crosses fingers* I never win any contests... Thanks EvAv!

[caenelgren]

As a semi-longtime lurker I have to say I've never seen a site that interacts with and is as cool towards its members as Evil Avatar. Just makes it easy to keep re-subscribing and making this my homepage =)

Entered, giving this a shot. I left out Crysis as I have zero chance of running that decently anytime soon =p Thanks!

[boratika]

I hope I win Crysis so it can sit there for a few weeks mocking me untill I upgrade my compy, at which point it can mock my brand new system with a slide show:D

[gzsfrk]

Will it cause a problem if I send the email from my work email as long as I specify my EvAv user ID in the body of the message? Or do I have to send them from the email I have linked to my EvAv ID?

[zeonxavier]

Why do I get the feeling that Ace Attorney will be the most hotly contested item on this list?

[Bone]

Will it cause a problem if I send the email from my work email as long as I specify my EvAv user ID in the body of the message? Or do I have to send them from the email I have linked to my EvAv ID?

From what bap said above, it looks like they will reply to whatever email you use, to confirm a win.

[Scull]

I don't say this nearly enough, this site, and those who run it, kick so much ass it hurts the asses of those not being kicked!

[H.Bogard]

Where did all the native Crysis hate go?

[mikeohara]

entered for both Crysis and Hellgate: London, hope I win something this year (as I won Dead Rising last year for the 360) :D

[pseudopseudo]

Why do I get the feeling that Ace Attorney will be the most hotly contested item on this list?

Because it's an awesome game, that's why.

BAP, are there any PS3 games coming up this week? Just wondering. :)

[UnderHero5]

I bet whoever enters to win Godzilla will be the winner, by default... being the only person to bid on it.

[Bone]

I bet whoever enters to win Godzilla will be the winner, by default... being the only person to bid on it.
Then I win!

[gzsfrk]

Then I win!

Whoa! Bone just went green. Trying to grease the axle a little bit just before the big giveaway starts, eh? :)

[Dread7x]

This is really awesome of you guys to do this type of stuff. Greatest place on the 'net.

[Bone]

Whoa! Bone just went green. Trying to grease the axle a little bit just before the big giveaway starts, eh? :)Maybe! Actually I had to re-up to keep the yellow away, and it turned out I was over the threshold.

[Zanzibar]

Oh, dear God, please....Overlord....

[Lutheran]

Really great of you guys to do this giveaway , thanks a lot

[CptTripps]

Crysis and EEIII for me. I won't enter on the others as I don't have the system or am not interested.

Yall think a 7800GTX SLI rig (3.2Ghz 2GB) would at least play crysis?

[gzsfrk]

Oh, dear God, please....Overlord....

All hail the Overlord?

Oh, Sealab 2021 Season One.... how I miss the non-suck that was you.

"The secret ingredient is love...... Dammit."

[anakin876]

All hail the Overlord?

I named my singer in Rock Band "The Overlord" just because of that episode of Sealab. This way, when I greet the crowd as "my minions" it makes sense. :-P

[ColBatGuano]

Nice. Finally a reason to quit lurking and join EA.

[OUX]

As always well done sirs.

[Darkmatter]
