Tell Me Again…How the Hell Did I Die? Be Part of Video Game History!
ATLUS and Old School Games announce the “Ways to Die” Contest for God Mode.
For the first time in the history of 4-Person co-op XBLA, PSN and PC shooters (we think) comes an all-new and exciting contest.
WHAT IS IT?
When you play God Mode, you are already dead. We want you to tell us how your character met his fate. In other words what act of stupidity or simple bad luck sent you on your journey to the Maze of Hades? Why you ask? What is the grand prize? Well, it’s legendary!
· Submissions that make us laugh or cringe more than the others will get selected and recorded by our hilariously annoying Spirit Guide for inclusion in the game. We aren’t limiting the number of entries that get in. If it’s good, you might just hear it in the game.
· You win, and you also get a game credit in the “Special Thanks” category.
RULES
What are the rules you ask? Well, fortunately God Mode is an M-rated game so we have some leeway with submission content, but we ask you to please adhere to the following rules when submitting entries:
· No mentions of brand names (if it has a TM or © or ®, that’s a good hint that it can’t be mentioned). You might hate that fast food chain down the road, but if someone died eating its horsemeat burger, we just can’t include the name of the establishment in the voiceover.
· No mentioning of real-life individuals. Your neighbor might have the world’s worst BO, maybe even bad enough to cause a death, but don’t mention him/her by name or we need to exclude your submission.
· Please refrain from using profanity in the submission. It might be a funny line to us, but unfortunately we won't be able to put it in the game.
· The phrase should be about 25-30 seconds long that should naturally break down into 6-8 sentences with pauses. (Read your text out loud with a stopwatch!) Here is an example:
“There you are sitting in the office at 2 am on a Saturday crunching to finish that stupid video game that you think will change the world!
You look at your to-do list and then the schedule. Back and forth between the to-do list and schedule. Suddenly something misfires in your brain.
Your eye begins to twitch, teeth begin to grind, and bowels violently evacuate.
A stroke at age 29 – such a shame. You’ve wasted your life making video games!”
· Include your real name in the submission as well as an email where we can contact you if you win.
LEGAL BLAH BLAH
Oh, and there is likely going to be some legal gobbledygook on this somewhere on this site, but we just to need to make the lawyers happy here – if you submit it, we have the right to use or modify it as we see fit. Sorry for stating the obvious.
SUBMISSION
Submit your entries HERE, in the comments section below. The deadline for submissions is 11:59 pm PT on January 11, 2013.
Check back often, as we may post some of your ingenious creations on the site. Either way, we'll announce the winner(s) here on this page on Tuesday, January 15th, so come back then!
Good luck and have fun!
