This week, if you have a Kinect or plan to get one eventually, we have a game for you. Apart from maybe Kinectimals, Dance Central is the best launch title for the camera sensor peripheral - and you can win a new copy right here (we ended up with two!).
And we have some launch goodies to sweeten the pot: three purple Kinect wristbands, two Kinect window clings and a bunch of Kinect stickers! Just to be crystal clear: Kinect is NOT included.
This prize pack is so nice, we're going to extend the entry period an extra week. Here's how to enter and boost your odds to win:
- Enter a comment here, as usual. That's all you really NEED to do.
- Tweet the following on Twitter: Win #DanceCentral and other #Kinect launch goodies at BusyGamerNews.com, home of the Busy Gamer Podcast: http://bit.ly/aLPpXg #bgnfsf
- Review (or re-review) our Busy Gamer Podcast on iTunes.
- Review (or re-review) the Best of Busy Gamer Podcast on iTunes. This is a short audio highlights feed with our reviews, audio tours and other timeless bits!
If you do 2, 3 and/or 4 (and why wouldn't you?), you do need to let us know your Twitter/iTunes name(s) in your comment so we can find, verify and include your bonus entries in the drawing and match them up to contact you if one of them wins. If we can't easily tell who you are on Twitter and/or iTunes, the bonus entry is disqualified.
You DO have to enter a comment here and follow the other rules to be eligible:
Simply post a comment on this page. (You can do the other things listed above if you want to earn some extra chances to win.) Say whatever is on your mind as long as it's not an ad or profane. Be sure to read the Sweepstakes Rules to ensure you are eligible to win and don't get disqualified by double-posting or forgetting to provide an e-mail address.
NOTE: If you play for extra chances on Twitter or by posting podcast reviews on iTunes, you still have to enter here AND let us know your Twitter and/or iTunes names so we can match you up. iTunes ratings alone do not count since we can't see who posted them, so add or update a comment! (If you already posted an iTunes review, you can still update your review once a week for a bonus entry in each week's giveaway. Just log in to iTunes and click Write a Review; it should load your existing review and let you modify it. Check to ensure that it appears on top with the new date.)
You may also want to white list this domain; we've had MANY would-be winners lose out because they never responded to their prize notification! If you use TypeKey/TypePad, be sure your e-mail address will be shared. No e-mail address, no prize. (Don't worry, no one else will see it - and we'll only use it to contact you if you win.)
Note that unless you're an authenticated poster who has been active on the site and marked as trusted, your comment will NOT appear immediately. It will go into a queue for me to approve, which I'll do several times a day (except the first weekend, where comments may not be approved until sometime late on Sunday). Do NOT double-post. We'll extend the entry period for this until 6:01 p.m. Pacific Time on Wednesday, November 17 to ensure you have plenty of time to enter and verify your entry was posted.
We also sometimes give away unannounced Instant Win prizes and podcast extras. Here are a few tips since this can happen at any time. Check our Busy Gamer Podcast on Sundays for possible hints about what's coming. Follow Gamewatcher on Twitter. Before we post the next Free Stuff Bonus - Instant Win, we'll give you a fair warning tweet. 2) Subscribe to our RSS feed and set it to check for updates frequently.
We continue to stock up on cool goodies for Free Stuff Friday - and we will keep doing so as long as there's enough response, even if we continue to lose money on this site. So tell your friends about this! Hey, if we get bigger, so will the prizes that YOU could win! While you're at it, post comments wherever you see something interesting. Also, if you get a game code you don't need or have some other cool game-related prize you want to donate, we'd be very grateful (we pay for much of this stuff ourselves!).
Thank you!

I've played dance central at a friends and it's pretty awesome except for the fact that I can not dance. The ladies seemed to do pretty well but most of the guys seemed to do HORRIBLE! Hopefully I get the chance to practice with this :D

Looks like the only worth while Kinect game.
Kinect KILLS THE WII
Awesome, Dance Central is the Kinect game I've been most looking forwards to.
Twitter name: BitLooter
Dance Central is easily the best game at launch but I'd love to see what the Kinect can really do!
Haha I agree with you on the fact that it looks to be the second best game of the current Kinect game crop, but it could easily take over Kinectimils if it had the chance. But thanks for the chance to win!
This is my one and only entry :) good luck all!
Good luck everyone !

One acknowledges that our life seems to be high priced, but we require cash for different things and not every one gets big sums cash. Thence to get fast home loans and short term loan should be good way out.
