I won a computer game called Take No Prisoners (I believe is the name) one of the worst games ever. All I had to do was be one of the first 500 to enter.

I also won a T-shirt as a 4th place prize when some Frank Thomas game was coming out on Genesis and SNES. I wore it quite often.

 

Just a Tivo. It was not really a contest 'cuz they say there was some error, which resulted in everyone who participated in the contest at that time winning.

I'm hoping some day to win a real thing! :D For now, though, I dislike contests/sweepstakes. :eek:

I won two contests at IGN about two years ago, before it got all this INSIDER CRAP. I won a Matrix (the movie) prize pack with a t-shirt, poster, and other random Matrix junk and I also won some other contest but they called me up and they told me that whatever it was that I was supposed to have won wasn't there so instead they sent me an IGN t-shirt, a bunch of crappy demo playstation discs, and random IGN junk. I don't remember what the original prize was supposed to be, but I know it wasn't much better than the junk I got.
