Depends on when you did it. I preordered way back when the Epic Edition was first announced so I didn't get one either. If you didn't get one, you can request one by entering the email and phone number associated with your preorder.

Request it off that site? Never mind got it, thanks!

Thanks OP, tried yesterday and today and all I got so far was wallpaper. Guess I'll keep trying if I can remember it.

Thanks OP! I will try my daily luck, can't hurt.

According to the rules, you can enter this contest twice a day. I didn't realize that until today. The OP states one entry per person per day. This is WRONG. Here's a copy/paste from the rules:

To Enter Online: Visit www.gamestop.com/gearsofwar3 and complete all required fields on the online entry form. When prompted to provide your Gears of War 3 pre-order number, click the “Need a Code” link and input your e-mail address and phone number when prompted to do so. A pre-order code number will be provided to you immediately. This pre-order code can then be used to enter Sweepstakes as outlined above in “Pre-Order Transaction Online” and you will receive one (1) entry into Sweepstakes. This one pre-order number can be used two (2) times each day during the Sweepstakes Period for the maximum allowable total of one-hundred and eight (108) entries during Sweepstakes Period. Entrant does not need to make any purchases to enter Sweepstakes via this entry method. If entrant is a GameStop® PowerUp Rewards member, they will receive two (2) entries each time they enter via this method, if they include their GameStop® PowerUp Rewards number, in addition to their pre-order number, on the online entry form each time they enter via this entry method, for the same maximum allowable total of one-hundred and eight (108) entries during the Sweepstakes Period.

By the way, this morning I won (on the wheel) a free month of XBL Gold.

How do you get a powerup rewards number?

Can't help you there, I"m not a member of that program. You don't have to be a member to play the game. It just gives you an extra entry each time. I really doubt those extra entries will make much of a difference (kind of like buying a second lotto ticket).

When I leave that part blank, it says the verification code you entered is incorrect.

The verification code is the code you have to enter to prove you're not a robot. It's a bunch of letters and numbers. You have to make sure you're using capital letters on this one.

Submitting your info each time sucks... why couldn't they just do a logon and go like every other contest.

Yeah you know what else sucks? The tab button doesn't work so you can't tab between items. You have to click with your mouse.

Fill out your info before you request a code, the tab stops working if you request the code first.

Yeah apparently my computer decided not let Javascript work on the site so I can't enter anything -_-

Entered all the info and got to the spinning cog, but it wouldn't actually spin... Strange.

You have to press a button then it shows the cog much bigger with 'spin' on it. Click that and it goes. Maybe try a different web browser?

Just wallpapers for me so far. I expect this trend to continue, sadly.

Only wallpapers for first two tries. Sucks you have to enter in your info every time... Thanks for the post OP.
