Spybreak8

Well saw the ad on the dashboard awhile ago and aparrently you just watch the 5 clips of 300 off of the Marketplace or use the codes below:
Codes were Xerxes, Gorgo, Leonidas, Shai Gen and Los Muertos
Good luck to those who entered and hope you get a free copy of Crackdown, more excited with this than raising my gamerscore to get crap. Glad the title threw some of you, I sucked you in, MUHAHAHAHA. You guys were the first thing I thought about when I found out about this. Lets get some free stuff!

Looks like the codes are already in the "Official Rules" on the contest page:
(2.) If you do not have access to or wish to use an Xbox 360 console to watch the Video Clips in order to discern the five (5) Codes, the five (5) Codes required for Sweepstakes entry are as follows: Xerxes, Gorgo, Leonidas, Shai Gen and Los Muertos.

I like how there's bullet-time every 2 seconds.
This contest sounds interesting, but the title for this post was a bit confusing. I thought I had to watch 300 video clips of random whatnot to be entered into a contest for Crackdown.
The 300 trailers look amazing, but I read some reviews that said it was dissapointing.

>_> I did it today. I would love that game just for the Halo 3 Demo. It probably won't even have the beta but the game itself is fun enough for me and you should actually try it if you win. I know the picture has the halo 3 beta on it but it doesn't say anywhere in the rules so don't keep your hopes up on that.

I got this in my email yesterday. Almost deleted it because it looked like spam/data mining, but then I recalled that I had actually entered a contest. Looking back in the thread, it looks like the winners were already chosen, so they must have had some non-responders. Anyone who entered might still have a shot...
On a side note, being very skeptical about things like this, even though they had my full name and it was a real sweepstakes, I did some searching on these guys and found some pretty bizarre stuff. Their website (http://www.swpstks.com/) is basically a single page aside from their "clients" pop-up window, which is a fairly impressive list, assuming that it's legit :lol:.
The really odd thing is that the site says the corp. is "A Division of the Susquehanna Hat Company," which a search of turns up two (http://www.sayhername.com) bizarre (http://www.susquehannahats.com)websites (neither of which look related to this company), and the fact that it was an Abbott and Costello routine.

I tried like 10 times but I kept getting this "Failure to send" notice. So i just ended up creating a new one with just my info and a short message explaining why i couldn't send it. It was sent but i haven't heard back since. Hopefully I won't be disqualified, because that would really suck, first time i actually won something too.
