Topic: Gaming Steve, Episode 67 - And the Winner is... YOU!

[ARogan]

Yah I won!!!!  Wow, this is the first time I've won something from a podcast.

I didn't even know until today since I've been busy with family during Christmas so I only got to check out the podcast today.
Steve sure is fast.  He said I should be getting my PS3 40gb (with spiderman 3) this Thurs.

Thanks again Steve!

We better see more of you around then or we be cross. Seriously though congrats.

Congratulations to all the winners!

On another topic, when Steve was taking about a web based Sim City style game (that was this podcast right?) I really thought he was going to talk about ElectroCity.

This turn based city building game focuses on making a city that balances pollution, happiness, and money. I beleive it's actually an advergame for some energy company becuase of it's focues on trying to get people to use clean energy like hydro electric and wind farms.  It's pretty addicting and not the easiest web game out their (you can go bankrupt quickly if you don't manage your energy consumption well), but a fun diversion none the less.

I got my Playstation 3 (40GB) last night and spent some time setting it up and testing it out.  It's working great so far.  I tried out uncharted, a few blu-ray movies, and installed yellow dog linux on it.

More pics and information in my blog post here.

Congrats again.
Nice setup you've got there.

It reminds me of a quote from family guy. With the whole brewery tour, golden ticket, Willy wonka rip off thing.

The guy on the news "The winner was announced this week and I think everyone will join me in saying, 'Congratulations, you lucky sonuva bitch.'"

 

Cool set-up. I didn't notice the two Xbox's until it was mentioned on the front page. Why do you have two of them?

[ARogan]

Woot made the front page for doing nothing!

Well, the first xbox is a launch one (Thompson optical drive).  It works most of the time but gives me read errors once in a while.
The second one I got used from Gamestop for $50 and has a much more reliable Samsung drive.

I probably should move one of them downstairs for the heck of it.

Congrats on winning ARogan! Thanks for showing us pictures too, thats really a nice set up.

Last post was deleted. Thanks for the contest! That'll teach me to not listen as soon as it's downloaded.

Ask for Spore Hydro.

>.>
<.<

I actually l already did and he said thats fine as long as I don't mind waiting for it to come out! So yay!! I get a free copy of Spore!!!  Weeee!

So Steve says he has already ordered "Spore Galactic Edition" for me on Amazon.com! I am very happy and can't wait to get it! I am so glad i waited for this. It only took 9 months from the end of of this contest but it was worth the wait! Your the best Gaming Steve!

Your still a long way from getting the record waiting to recieve your prize from Steve seeing I'm the current holder of that at well over a year. I think it was closer to 2.

What's the red game sticking out the bottom of your DS?

[Cobra]

Almost certainly Pokemon Ruby. In fact come to think of I can't see it being anything else being it the only clear red game cartridge I own (or even know exists).
