    Hey gamespot team,
    I won the competition for "prinny can i really be the hero?" and I still haven't gotten the game yet! i think it's been about 6 or 7 weeks, and is it normal for it to take this long?

    thanks and great podcast by the way!

    Reaper don't worry it's quite possible, I've won before, so have many others posting here.

    Mariosoccer, it is ONLY available for UK users, unfortunately. You won't be able to win.

    I enjoyed the bit about Batman, even if I won't be able to play with the Joker

    And I didn't win the competition

    Still, great show and nice competition again.


    Oh and can I ask? I thought that all prizes were delivered by you (Gamespot) now, but you said "we'll get activision to send them over". So do you send it or do the company providing it? Or is it both?

    Great show realy enjoyed it, had the problem of only seeing the banners at the tops and bottom of the page but I found turning adblock plus off and reloading the page works, using firefox by the way.
