PS3 winner announced

2 November 2009

Early in October, MyGaming announced that one lucky forum user would be winning a Playstation 3, as well as a selection of games.

The competition is the biggest held yet by MyGaming, with close to 400 unique entrants, of which only 137 users qualified for entry at the close of the competition. In order to be eligible to win, forum users simply had to visit and post in the forum on a weekly basis.

The winner selected using an online random number generator is StefKruger, who has been a member since MyGaming’s launch week.

Final games announced for prize basket

Last week we announced that PS3 versions of Need for Speed: Shift and Borderlands would be given to the winner. The two final games to be added to the prize basket are Fifa 10 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2.

Fifa 10 was the fastest selling sports game in Europe ever, managing 1.7 million sold copies in its opening week.  It has been well received by reviewers, maintaining an average online review score of 91 on PS3 according to Metacritic.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 maintains an Metacritic score of 76 percent.
