The final round begins: This is your last chance to win our final copy of Halo 3: ODST. Entries end midnight Sunday 29th!

We're big fans of freebies here at Economical Gamer, and Fishpond kindly gave us four copies of Halo 3: ODST for us to give away to our readership!
Halo 3: ODST lets you revisit the attack on Earth that took place during Halo 3 from the eyes of an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper in a change of pace for the franchise. Its a great addition to the library of any first person shooter fan.

I hope you all enjoy the photographs people sent in. You can check them out in the full article. Believe me when I say it was hard to choose the winners.

Update: The final code has been sent out. Thanks to everyone who entered, Fishpond and everyone in general to participates here at Economical Gamer.
Everyone should have received their codes by private message. Some winners haven't replied to let me know they received their codes so if you entered the competition you might want to check the list of winners.
We have 20 codes for the Ratchet & Clank Vehicle & Character Pack downloadable content to give away! This DLC is for the Playstation 3 game Modnations.
All you have to do to win one is make a comment on this article. Every day one user will be selected at random as the winner, until we run out of codes. You're all in with an equal chance each day so no need to enter more than once.

2K Games Australia kindly donated six, yes six, copies of Borderlands for us to give away! We have two copies of each platform: PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 to give away.
The world of Pandora is populated by some pretty mean inhabitants. Brutes, snipers and even crazy midgets sporting funky mohawks. Baddies of all shapes and skills, but the one thing they have in common is a strange fetish for wearing masks. Why? Well masks are fun aren't they? Why not get in on the action too?
If you want to know why Borderlands is an awesome prize, give our review a read.
