Oddworld freebies and competitions
 
There's a few competitions, contests, giveaways and the like coming up that I feel you guys deserve to be alerted to. Even if you don't want to participate yourselves you can help spread the word. Hey - this is what fan communities are for!

Current competitions
  • Grab a screenshot from JAW's new, live office webcam, slap on a funny caption, and the best one wins a copy of Stranger HD for your PS3. (You must have access to a PSN Store that stocks the game to redeem your prize.)

Past competitions
  • Insert Coin had a Twitter competition. Follow them and JAW on Twitter and retweet this to stand a chance of winning one of two free copies of Stranger HD on PS3 and one of two of their Stranger's Wrath T-shirt designs (viewable on their website).

Re-tweeted it. Cheers for the heads up Wil, Now i'm hoping to win :D

Jordan 01-06-2012 10:06 AM

I'm dying to get those t-shirts!

STM 01-06-2012 10:13 AM

I'd like to get one of them t-shirts but I won't be able to get one via paying until I get a job...so this is my only chance. XD

Good luck everyone!

Well I already bought strangers wrath for my ps3, but those shirts look really rad!

Nate 01-06-2012 03:16 PM

Bear in mind all that you also need to follow @jawltd. Wil, you might want to edit your post to clarify that.

Xavier 01-11-2012 02:19 AM

Thanks for the heads up, but I think I'll rather buy them directly from Insert Coin. Even if, ouch, 28 euros isn't a bargain. :confused:

New competition! JAW is holding a caption contest! Grab a screenshot from our new, live office webcam, slap on a funny caption, and the best one wins a copy of Stranger HD for your PS3. (You must have access to a PSN Store that stocks the game to redeem your prize.)

Unfortunately the webcam itself seems vulnerable to high traffic and conks out sometimes. Nothing we can do about that; it fixes itself in its own time, so just try again later.

I should probably say that emailing them to info@jawltd.com is the best way of making sure they're submitted.

DO IT

MeechMunchie 01-13-2012 07:36 AM

Well I haven't even got a PS3, so I'm just here for shits 'n' giggles.

Someone might steal your idea! D:
Oh, and I have a question. When was JAW first established?

Feel free.

Mudokon_Master 01-13-2012 01:36 PM

Nah, I have my own. I thought it was pretty good.

PC release is worth the wait, I always preferred FPV style games to be on PC, Unless I play Skyrim because we ONLY bought it for Xbox 360, there wouldn't be any point buying Skyrim for PC now.

2006. The current office was moved into February 2011.

Thanks Wil petal :D

Havoc 02-20-2012 05:27 PM

Too bad I'm always crap at coming up with something witty when it comes to shit like that.

Xavier 02-20-2012 11:08 PM

Ugh, the current French entries are crap. The sad thing is that I can't seem to come up with anything better. :p

Jordan 03-07-2012 11:51 AM

Did anyone see who won the English competition? It was shite.

MeechMunchie 03-07-2012 12:21 PM

They were all shite. Apart from mine. That was merely bad.

Crashpunk 03-08-2012 10:59 AM
