Jericho Halloween Contest! Win the game, soundtrack,  and more (9 winners) photo

I'm proud to announce this week's sponsor is the fruit of Codemasters and Clive Barker's labor, the new horror game Jericho arriving next week on the 23rd.  Since Halloween is around the corner, we thought we thought we'd put something in your goodie bag a little early: We're giving away three copies of the game on each platform as well as the soundtrack and other swag to the top three winners -- a total of nine winners! Here's how to steal your free copy:

Contest rules: 

(1) Post a photo of you in your costume holding up a sign that says "Citizen of Jericho" (preferably something scary, but any silly costume is fine).  If you can pull off a Jericho cosplay, your odds of winning obviously go up.  Some screen shots of the various characters are attached in the gallery below. Who needs working eyeballs, anyway? Go all out! 

(2) Please specify your platform of choice and a backup choice (Choose from: PS3, Xbox 360, or Games for Windows) .  The contest ends on October 31, so be sure to post your entry before you go out trick or treating.

Prizes:

My favorite three entries will win a copy of the game and the soundtrack. Six winners will be selected at random.

Other ways to win: 

Not planning on dressing up this year?  You can also participate as a "standby entry" by posting a found photo of a carved video-game related pumpkin.  If we can't contact the winners of the costume contest, one of the pumpkin comments will be selected at random instead.  You can post as many costume entries and pumpkins as you'd like but you can only win once. 

Good luck!

*groan*

If I wasn't grossly lazy, I'd do it.Counting the fact that we have Bioshock, Orange Box, and Halo 3 to play (better games)

Awesome contest, though.

Can we PhotoShop a sign into the picture?

Also, I have a horror make- up friend, can I have him hold up the sign but also have a separate picture of us together to prove we are friends and use him to win?

Photoshopped signs are fine, however it makes it hard to tell original work from found cosplay on the web. We can leave one day after the winners for internet matlockery appeals.

I'm dressed as a high school kid that listens to metal, plays video games, obsessed with D&D, mommy and daddy don't hug, and gets picks on all the time by the jocks and cool kids.

I know its not Clive Barker, but in today's times is there anything really scarier?

360 and then second choice PS3.

My costume pic is in this post --- You just can't see it. I'm the consciousness of the guy who keeps switching between teammates. And the sign is in my consciousness, too... Yeah... Great costume idea, huh?

OK!

New costume is read.

I'm the only one of the fatguys on this site with the balls to do this. So, Hoorah to the fuckers that want to crack fat jokes (who will be first lol). I forgot to add my Jericho sign in the last one. This isn't exactly Jericho themed costume, or much of a costume for that matter, but, oh well, shits and giggles right?


I AM! CRAZY PERVERTED ROBE GUY!

I wants the Xbox 360 version of this game. In case I forget to do some cosplay for this, here are some pumpkin entries.

In honor of Beautiful Katamari this week:
