Halo 4 Free - Winners Announced!
KontrolFreek has posted a list of winners for their Halo 4 Free contest - congrats to all 6! (I'm impressed - four of them are women.) Even better news for folks who DIDN'T win - HBO was the winning community partner, which means that at some point soon, we'll have ANOTHER Halo 4 LE console to give away. w00t! Thanks to GrimBrother One for noticing the announcement - and thanks to everyone who referred us! Keep your eyes peeled for the contest announcement. (There's a discount code listed on that announcement page - you can buy anything in their store for 10% off with it. Go shopping!) (Louis Wu 17:30:43 UTC)

Halo 4 Free - we need your help!
We've entered the final week of the KontrolFreek Halo 4 Free contest - and the chances of HBO getting an extra Halo 4 Xbox 360 bundle to give away to you guys are dependent on your participation! We are currently 80 referrals out of the lead - if you haven't visited their Facebook page yet, please do so... and attribute your referral to us! We'd love to give you more goodies.

Halo 4 Free - from KontrolFreek
We've had good things to say about KontrolFreek products in the past - and now, they're kicking off a new giveaway. Halo 4 Free is a Facebook-based giveaway - liking their page could net you a Halo 4 console! Take a look. (Louis Wu 17:59:11 UTC)

Farewell to a Legend - Winner Announced
We heard from Kontrol Freek that the winner of their Farewell to a Legend contest has been announced - go see who's going to be playing on his new Reach Xbox 360 with a Master Chief vs the Flood statue in the background (and a pair of Freek Legendarys on his controller!) In the near future! In addition, Kontrol Freek is sending along a Steve-Downes-signed pic of Master Chief to us (one of these); we'll figure out a suitable giveaway in the near future! Everybody wins. (There are still a few FPS Freek Legendarys in stock, so if you haven't grabbed a pair, do it now!) (Louis Wu 16:55:15 UTC)

Farewell to a Legend - Ending Soon!

Farewell To a Legend
KontrolFreek, the guys who make those little adaptors that sit on top of your Xbox controller's analog sticks and give you tighter control, have a new contest going. The FPS Freek Legendarys, a variant of their product designed specifically for Halo, is being retired - when this last batch is gone, they're gone. And to say goodbye in style, they've put together a heck of a prize package - A Reach Xbox 360, a Weta Halo statue, and a pair of Legendarys signed by Steve Downes. All you need to do is enter your email! This contest officially kicks off on Saturday - but because you're reading this on HBO, you get to sign up early. Check it out, sign up... and maybe grab a pair just in case you don't win! (I wrote a mini-review of these puppies last year, and the KontrolFreek guys answered a bunch of questions for us soon after that. I'm not getting paid for this - I can recommend these because I use 'em, and love 'em.) (Louis Wu 22:03:42 UTC)

The Headshot Heard 'Round The World - Results
The day did NOT go as planned - I thought I'd get the Headshot Heard Round The World results posted, and the voting started on the Guilt O' Lantern pumpkins. Neither one happened. I do, in fact, have results for the Headshot contest - but the pumpkin voting will have to wait a bit longer. (There are a lot of them! I'm really sorry!) Congratulations to Amish Butter, AWW CRAIG, and cagman40 for taking First, Second, and Third Place, respectively. More than 6500 individuals cast almost 19,000 votes - an amazing turnout! We've also listed 29 of the 30 Early Bird winners - the first 30 folks who sent in a clip (and answered the email notifying them of a prize) won FPS Freek Legendarys. (We're still waiting for one answer; the original winner has already lost out, the email is now out to the first backup.) If you didn't win, but you still want these puppies, remember... they're offering a discount to HBO readers through Sunday! (Check the Q&A page for full details.) Thanks to everyone for playing, thanks especially to KontrolFreek for providing the awesome prizes, and congratulations once again to our top winners! (Louis Wu 02:34:53 UTC)

Headshot Heard 'Round the World - plus Q and A
Voting on our Headshot Heard 'Round the World contest is amazing - nearly six thousand people have cast almost 18,000 votes, and winners are beginning to emerge. (We're going to let the voting continue for another day or two, so there's still time for some shifting to happen.) While you're waiting for results, you might want to swing by a short Q&A about the FPS Freek Legendarys - we asked our forum for questions, and KontrolFreek answered 'em. As a really nice bonus, they've provided a discount code you can use this week - anything you buy in their store is 10% off! (See the Q&A for the code.) We'll be contacting the winners of the 30 Legendary sets who sent in the earliest valid headshot entries today - please keep an eye on your junk folder, just in case! If we don't get responses in 48 hours, we'll move on to the next person on the list. (Louis Wu 17:29:36 UTC)

Headshot Heard 'Round The World: Voting
Whew! Took longer than we'd expected, but hey - there were a LOT of entries to sort through. No matter: Voting for the Headshot Heard 'Round The World contest is now open! We've narrowed the playing field down to 15 finalists, and you get to pick your top three choices. Voting will remain open for a while - but don't put this off forever! Remember, the grand prize winner will collect a Halo: Reach Console Bundle, thanks to the generosity of KontrolFreek! Go watch, and vote! (Louis Wu 14:02:04 UTC)

Just a quick word - I'm gone for the next four days, so any mail sent to my personal address will languish unread until Sunday night. If you have Halo news, send it to halo@bungie.org. Also, this means I will be gone for the ending of the submission period of the Headshot Heard 'Round The World contest. Don't worry - any entries sent in before 9pm PST tomorrow will qualify - and we'll post a page full of finalists sometime next week (after HBO and KontrolFreek admins have a chance to pare down the list a bit). Enjoy your weekend - and be nice to Grim! (Louis Wu 18:42:16 UTC)

We want your headshots!
I checked our contest email over the weekend, and there are only about 50 valid entries for the KontrolFreek Headshot Heard 'Round The World contest - you guys remember there's a Halo: Reach Xbox 360 on the line, right? All you have to do is submit a cool headshot video that's less than a minute long, and you're in the running! Do you not like free stuff, or something? (Louis Wu 16:36:38 UTC)

Wanna learn about FPS Freeks?
The Headshot Heard 'Round The World contest is going great guns - thanks for all the submissions! You've still got a week to add yours, so be sure to keep track of your best shot. KontrolFreek, the kind folks supplying all the prizes, want to help you understand their product - if you have any questions at all, add 'em to this forum thread! We'll get answers, and post 'em for you. (Louis Wu 19:15:28 UTC)

The Headshot Heard 'Round the World
You'd think with all these giveaways and contests, it would be December, or something... nope, still October. We've got a new one for you - KontrolFreek wants to see your most impressive headshot clip. In return, they're giving away a whole bunch of FPS Freek Legendarys (they're controller enhancers - they'll make you play better), and some bigger prizes as well. Check out the full details on the contest page. And start domin'! (Louis Wu 19:48:54 UTC)

FPS Freek Legendary - a Controller Enhancer
I recently got my thumbs on a pair of FPS Freek Legendarys - they're tiny add-ons you snap on to your controller's thumbsticks. Swing by my mini-review to see pics and find out what I thought of 'em. (Louis Wu 15:51:09 UTC)

Prevent slippery fingers
If you've put any time on your gaming controller, you've probably uncovered a weakness with the stick controls. KontrolFreek is releasing some FPS Freek Legendary extensions (with grippers) and a sick new twist you'll need to see. (Cybrfrk 01:13:29 UTC)
