Contest: The Dew goes Old School / New School - Win an Xbox 360 on Dtoid! photo

Seriously, the Price is Right has nothing on us this month.  Are you ready for our eighth contest of the month? *The Crowd roars! Women throw their panties!*

Pepsi has just launched Old School, New School, where you can use codes on Mountain Dew and AMP products to redeem prizes such as cars, kicks, and gaming systems. Destructoid has teamed up with Pepsi to give away an Xbox 360 (20GB, Wireless controller) exclusively for our readers. To enter, just answer this question:

What is your favorite Old School and New School game of all time?

Answer the question in the comments section below and you're registered to win! (Don't be that guy who says Mega Man 9) Sorry European Dtoiders, this one's limited to US entries only.  You've got two weeks to post your comment: A winner will be selected at random by a highly trained Spacecat following over E3 and Comic Con coverage. Good luck!
