You Win Or You Die, So Here's Your Chance To Win GAME OF THRONES For Xbox 360 Or PS3!!
The Kidd here...
Today, Ain't It Coolers, I've got your chance to do something many of you fans of GAME OF THRONES have wanted to do since entering into George R.R. Martin's fantastical world via books or the HBO series. I've got your opportunity to become a part of Westeros.
GAME OF THRONES has now become a video game in RPG form for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, and thanks to our friends over at Atlus, I've got FIVE copies of the game up for grabs, complete with a sweet 64-page hardbound book of concept art from the game entitled Game of Thrones: Visuals from the RPG. I've got five chances for you to make your way around the Seven Kingdoms - to walk through King's Landing, to stand in front of the Wall, etc. - on the console of your choosing.
So how do you lay claim to GAME OF THRONES? By becoming the Hand of the King. After all, this is a roleplaying game, so why not get in some practice here?
In the event that you were serving the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and protector of the Realm, one step away from the Iron Throne, what would your first order of business be as soon as you put that pin on?
Keep it to 100 words, if you even need that many, and, from there, I'll pick the five best who'll be crowned the kings and queens of this contest, winning GAME OF THRONES for their own home gameplay. For this particular GAME OF THRONES, you win or... well, you don't... so do your best to be on the winning side.
Send in your name, mailing address, entry and which console you want the game for (Xbox 360 or PS3) to Contests@AintItCool.com with the following subject line exactly (in all CAPS):
I WIN OR I DIE
You've got until 11:59 p.m. EST on Wednesday, May 23 to get your entries in. If you're missing any part of what would make a complete entry, it might as well not even exist.
Winners will be posted once the hard decisions have been made, and this contest is open to residents of the United States AND Canada.
Thanks to Atlus for setting this up, and good luck.

by Stalkeye
I'll take both Max and Recon for $120.00 Alex.

http://www.joystiq.com/2012/05/15/game-of-thrones-rpg-review/ Love the show, and not bad for a freebee, but I am fucked if I'm buying this cash-in. Max Payne it is then.....

IGN has it at 4 out of 10. The other sites don't give it much better.

The makers of this shit should be ashamed to put the GoT name on this crappy game.
by Eric
I played it and it blows donkey nuts.

I think the ads are tailored to your browsing history - i.e. you're looking at too much mature porn (if that's possible)

Good 'ol GRRM and HBO need to be careful in who they let license their property
by skycrapper
The RTS game was pretty crappy too. They can't all be Blizzard but sheesh.
-
...and if it didn't have the ALIENS label it would play like a low grade castletroid but as a huge ALIENS fan I'm finding it to be a blast.
-
Yeah so i'm not usually one to bother with contests... But it totally just entered.
-
so happy we're included in this one!!
-
Where either A)bloody, gory death or B)slow starvation is a common cause of death. Or B followed by A.
-
I loved playing as David and pounding that male prostitute on the hood of the car.
-
I'm Snoop. How my hair look?
-
I'm Nick Stahl. Where am I?
-
That's nuts I couldn't imagine that.
-
But I'm doing well though. I just unlocked a new level after contracting all the hepatitisis.
-
I made it as far as playing as Samantha and was going through menopause before I gave up.

I love games like that (though I always called them Metroidvaina.) I might have to pick that one up once I'm sick of Diablo.

Games based on movies or TV shows are usually shite because they
by atlatl
are basically a cheap licensing cash grab, and not a labor of love by passionate game developers.

If you're a fan of ALIENS I would definitely pick it up. I got it for $19.99 new. You got pusle rifles, smart guns, etc and visit the Sulaco, LV-426 among other sites. Kind of short but worth it and with over 20 Marines to play as lends itself to multiple play throughs. Plus you get a cool knife trick stylus mini game.

for about 7 years. Perhaps it is a case of "too many cooks" over the years, and trying to retool what's been done so far to keep up with current technology and trends.
-
Shouldn't you ask for that AFTER we win, if we win?
-
It's a shame I gotta wait until July for the OJ Simpson "hide The bloody glove & knife " DLC.
-
I'll give you mine for free: My first action as Hand of the King: Kick Joffrey in the balls. Whatever the consequence, it'd be worth it.

Bah, I'm still stuck on level one of 'Get a Life'.
by DanielnocharismaCraig
I'm still a newspaper boy and age 30 and still living with my parents in their garage.

My little hat keeps falling off, God damn it. Does anybody know how to keep that thing on?
-
its kinda like gta only in this you beat up and kill horses
-
I can finally play as Super Dave Osborne. And there's tits!

OMFG, on Buster's level 3 of the "Arrested Development" game a loose seal bites off your hand
by Tall_Boy6t6
GET HIM OUTTA HERE!

but no matter how hard I try, my character is just going to end up a selfish douchebag man-child. Too bad, the "Get dumb drunk chicks to sleep with you by lying about being a producer" mini-game is surprisingly deep.

a Friday, the game ends. Weird.

I did everything right with my entry, but I'm not 100% sure I wrote the subject in all caps. If you knock me out of the running for that, Kidd, I will be miffed.
-
would be better buys than this GoT game if one is looking for a medieval fantasy RPG. SKYRIM alone is long as hell and will be getting substantial expansion packs.
