The Saboteur Sweepstakes Now Live

image

The Escapist has just begun The Saboteur Sweepstakes, compliments of Pandemic Studios and AMD!

Pandemic Studios invites you to experience the ultimate open-world action/adventure-as The Saboteur. Avenge the loss of your loved ones by hunting down your sworn enemies in Nazi-occupied Paris. Fight, climb, and race your way through this unique world to destroy the lives of those who have taken everything from you. Enter the seedy world of an agent working in a stylized 1940s Paris, where the women are sexy, the missions are epic, and the revenge is satisfying. And what better way to do that than on a brand new AMD Gaming Rig or a copy of The Saboteur!

To read up on the rules and details, click here and good luck!

(Please note, this contest is for residents of the US and UK)

Well at least you are showing the UK some love. Now how about speading some of it to the poor neglected Canadians? Or do we have to assemble our army of meese and beavers to get some TLC?

That "custom rig" is a GPU according to the second link. Either fix the link, get some basic knowledge of hardware jargon or update the contest.

Ack, it's 18+...

And I really wanted a computer...

Residents of FL, RI and NY are unable to participate.

Ah bugger.

Gah! Living in Florida always bites me in the ass when it comes to online contests.

No NY? Dang.

I'm a Canadian, I hope Pandemic ceases to exist... Wait... Curses!

Good luck to the guy who wins.

Or maybe we should burn down the White House again.

RIP Pandemic. Well, I entered.

Do you think they are still bitter about that? Is that why they won't let us play in their reindeer games?

The link to the video quiz for the second entry is giving me a 404 error.

Yep it is, I'm able to get to the video now.

Is there a way I can turn up the resolution on the video? All I see are scribbles on the napkin.

Well it took me a good 30 mins to get all the answers from that video. Good luck to everyone that attempts that damn napkin.

No kidding. I found the HQ on youtube and it still took me forever to figure out. I eventually took an educated guess and got it right. haha

Yeah I had to search for a better video as well... I guess it has to be tough to get a second entry. I did get it. I like these sweepstakes, its fun stuff and I see cool stuff about the games that are coming out.

I hate New York.

omg i cant tell what the first word on the napkin is D:<

edit: im a half hour into the last question with no progress
i give up

I can't even read the napkin even with a better video.

Edit - Done!

Try Gametrailers for the video.

GAH, that damn napkin...

Why is that one of the questions? I mean, if it was possible to READ the words on the napkin, it'd be understandable, but it's just gibberish on the video here...

EDIT: Finally, I figured it out. There's a video on youtube that's pretty good on HQ.

Is there any particular reason this isn't available to New York residents?

Just spent 25-30 minutes on the napkin to realize that I'm ineligible because I live in NY.

Maybe I can get my brother to sign up and get it mailed to his apartment.

Meh, wouldn't have won anyway, but at least I tried, xD...

Somebody want to give me some advice on the napkin thingy?.... lol

EDIT: Nevermind, I got it.

I still can't see it. And that HQ video on youtube is WORSE than the one on this site.

Absolute BS.

Dammit, I can't enter due to a dang border. Why do the Canadians get no love from Pandemic!? jk :P

Wait, you'll ship to the freaking United Kingdom but not to your northern neighbour? What a gyp.

Damn it,still not available to the rest of the EU.
Looks like that'll be one more contest I sit-out on.

After taking a screenshot, mucking around with the balance and levels and googling every single thing I could for the greater part of an hour, I finally got it.

dammit this was a contest i actually wanted to enter..
oh well gotta wait till they make one nice and EU compatible
