Gamersyde Xbox 360 PS3

Thanks to Ubisoft, we can propose to you an exclusive contest to win 5 XBLA codes to download Outland. If you are not quite sure yet if you are interested, make sure you check out our full review here. Be careful though, the French side is also part of the competition so it will be difficult. Details inside!

To be one of the five winners of this Gamersyde Contest, we are going to ask you to make a fantastic drawing representing the main character of the game and your favorite site, Gamersyde obviously. You can use a simple pen if you feel like a true cartoonist, use Paint and do something a bit more naive, and even use more professional softwares as long as it's a personal creation. We do not want you to take some artwork on the Internet and use Photoshop. It has to be something you do from scratch.

How do I participate?

You simply have to post your drawing in this thread.

Who can play?

Anyone whose membership is at least 15 days old.

Deadline

The contest will end on May 4 at noon, Paris time.

Good luck!

Ooh, very cool, but isn't the main character very...not much of anything?

Well it's part of the difficulty I guess. But of course, you also need to create a scenery that is similar to the game's atmosphere, and include Gamersyde in it. You can also create a more detailed main character if you like, provided he does not feel out of place with a Master Chief Armor or a cape. ^^

Wow, that really is a competition! Not like "Which of these games is a Ubisoft game? A. Super Mario Brothers. B. Halo. C. Outland." (Anyone from the UK reading that should be having a Cybernet flashback right about now, lol!)

We've even gone further on the French side (like asking people to make a Portal 2/Gamersyde cake) but unfortunately we can't do it on the English side when the games we propose are not downloadable games.

But what about blind people with no hands? Shouldn't they have a fair chance at winning this contest?
