This week, here's a little something for the Halo fans: a sealed Bonus Box of Halo Trading Cards - six packs of seven, for a total of 42 cards. Since it's still sealed, I can't say for sure whether it contains any Motion Cards or Foil Cards, but the odds (1:12 and 1:6, respectively) are with you.While I am a fan of Halo (among other first-person shooters), I collect enough stuff already. So if you collect cards and/or love Halo, they are yours to win if you're lucky.

Hmmm... having only just played through the original Halo last week, maybe I should get through Halo 2 & 3 before I decide if I'm a Halo fan or not...
Well, eventually maybe - Force Unleashed just arrived yesterday!
Did you know that the LHC over in Europe is now called "Halo"? Kind of fitting, a giant ring that has the potential to destroy our corner of the universe. Anyway, wish me luck!
Sounds like a good idea. I'm up for it! I've never heard of Halo Trading Cards, actually. Great way to start!
Thanks for hosting such an awesome contest!
Me loves me some Halo! Argh!
Wow!!! This is about the 3rd or 4th Halo related contest I have seen this week! It must all be related to the Halo 3 anniversary release date coming up soon, but I am not complaining! Awesome Contest guys!!!
Nice to see some of these cards up for grabs, I'd been considering buying a box for myself.
As MusicMan said, there sure is alot of contests for Halo this week and probably more next week! Which is awesome! Thank you for this contest!
Huh, never really thought about collecting the Halo trading cards, but it would be awesome to win!
Halo = My Life

I can't wait for the update!
I've gotten a pack or two before, and they give nice little details on the subjects the depict.
Hm. Halo Trading Cards? Never heard of that before.
i,m making a book about halo. and ill give you a thanks in the book;
if you give me the cards or not(you also get a copy ;)
I remember when I first got my Pokemon cards, priceless. When I get these, my life is complete. lol
Never heard of Halo trading cards... I hope I win these!
I've drawn a random winner, and it was Curtis Hancock. Assuming he coughs up a qualifying mailing address, he gets this week's prize.
Come back this Friday for a chance to win not one but TWO games for the price of, well, NOTHING if you win! They're both good ones you may have missed, and one is REALLY worth playing. I still go back to it, but fortunately for you I have an extra copy I can part with!
It's worth mentioning that if this kind of participation keeps up, I'm planning to give away a really new and coveted game in the next month. So go ahead and enter every week and tell your friends. It'll be worth it, I promise. Rock on!
I'd love to win these for my son! ~ :) Thanks for the giveaway!
I love HALO!!! (Imagine the voice of the Entertainer from "I love New York").
UPDATE: The initial winner did not respond to my request for a mailing address within three days even with repeated requests so, per the rules, I drew a new winner Friday: Damian, who responded immediately and will get the Halo cards. So you know: It's not over until an eligible, responsive winner is drawn!
And if you have a spam filter, you might add busygamernews.com to your approved senders list, just in case you win a Free Stuff Friday drawing.
