When it comes to video games I am obsessive-compulsive about beating them. If I start a game I must finish it. No matter how bad, or how hard it is I will not rest until the ending credits have rolled across the screen. Like Bruce Hornsby says ... that's just the way it is!

Look what I got in the mail today from Destructoid Headquarters!
SilverDragon1979 | 6:41 PM on 08.10.2009 29 comments




So about a month ago Destructoid held a special edition Gears of War 2 Friday Night Fights. Coincidentally, I had just recently started playing the game, so I thought I would tag along to meet some more Dtoid community members, and to blow some of them away. After all, the best way to introduce yourself to a fellow Dtoider is to blow their head off with a shotgun blast. Don't you agree?

One of the perks for attending this FNF, was some Gears of War 2 related prizes that were being given out by the staff. The winners were being chosen using trivia questions, and I just happened to answer one of them right. Well, I've been waiting patiently for the last couple of weeks for my prize to arrive, and finally today I got my wish.

Check out the picks to see what I got.

I'd love to get into some FnF action, but I live in the UK, so i would probably have to stay up till like 4 in the morning.

You guys can count yourselves lucky - I am unbeatable in Cod4 and GoW2.

I'm not going to lie, I'm more focused on that shirt than I am the winnings. I think both are pretty gangsta.
