Here's who won our PS3 God of War III contest! photo

GameStop and Destructoid teamed up these last three weeks to bring you some delicious God of War III freebies. While GameStop was hosting their big contests, Destructoid was giving away copies of God of War III, GameStop gift cards and this past week saw us giving away a PlayStation 3!

In order to win the console and copy of the game, we wanted you to create a picture of Kratos fighting any MMA fighter. Congratulations to Monte! Your submission was the best of the bunch and sees you getting a brand new console and one of the year's most anticipated games!

Thanks to everyone that entered! We're always giving stuff away on Destructoid and be sure to check back later today as we'll be launching a brand new contest!

Congrats Monte, good work.

I saw a lot of entries that used that specific battle scene, but it's cool that you were able to assemble it into a winning entry.

@It doesnt take 5 seconds

exactly, Ive even mailed hamza 3 times and asked if multiple images were allowed and he never answered.. just asked me to show it, and I did. I had a full comic stripe ready to post and didnt do it because I was afraid of being disqualified for a misunderstood, so I made a new picture in the last day. Gratz to Monte, good job, but Im sorry to see I lost such a good contest because of the lack of communication of the editor... really, it wouldnt take 5s to answer me.

@BiroBiro You messaged me once, I did answer as you even stated and you never replied. Also, I answered you pretty timely considering last week was GDC.

Like your writing! Still you can do some things to improve it.,Actually, I don"t know the brand <a href="http://www.bestparkas.com/Wholesale-mens-yorkville-parka_c1272">canada goose outlet</a> much. I first hear about it from my friend. It"s going to Winter and weather will turn to colder and colder. People are searching for cheap and warm clothes, like<a href="http://www.bestparkas.com/Wholesale-mens-expedition-parka_c1270"> canada goose clothing</a>, as the cheap price and good quality and look. For now, <a href="http://www.bestparkas.com/Wholesale-mens-yorkville-parka_c1272">canada goose jackets</a> are sold very well, as weather is not so cold as to wear a large coat.
