So the Disgaea PSP contest is over now (http://www.kotaku.com.au/games/2008/02/psp_slim_disgaea_afternoon_of_darkness_competition _winners.html) and yours truly came in as a runner up. I got a free copy of Disgaea Afternoon of Darkness, but NO PSP TO PLAY IT ON!!!

Is this the ultimate bad luck or what!!! (although I'm still happy I won a free copy of the game itself)

:( They are all DS only owners. A mate did have a PSP but he got rid of it a while back

Nice work, I was going to enter that then realised how incredibly lazy I am, congrats on that. Pity about your dilemma though.

I'll sell it to you for the price of a PSP Slim and copy of Disgaea (so that way, everyone wins except the guy dumb enough to pay me $370 for my lone copy, haha)

You are lucky, why don't you buy a PSP or trade in the game?

Well I WANT a PSP, but its a matter of me being unemployed and mum saying no to any new systems/games this bday (since apparently I have enough) so now I have to wait until I get a job and enough money to buy a PSP.

lol, well then try to borrow the money off a family relitive and buy a cheap one off ebay. Thats your best choice. Or getting a job. Good luck with that.

Many people rob eb games buy staff members leaving games in the cases. But, knwing dark moogle, he would rob the bank :wink: joking.

So, anyone know how long it takes those drones at Kotaku to contact you after their contests end? My guess is that posting would be 5-10 working days so I want to know if I will get my prize before or after my bday (aka before or after I get my psp)

I can't believe you got into second place with such a crappy entry.

You did pretty well for what looks like barely an afternoon of taping and colouring in. :P

Is there a webpage about the winners? Wouldn't mind seeing the other entries. I know Alecat IRL, its a small world.

trade it in to EB for $4 and buy an oversized lollipop.

Also get the money to buy a PSP for your birthday.

Yeah, I know. Fast food stores or super markets is the easiest place to find a job. But thats why I said good luck.

*checks email for 7th time today only to find a gamespot update for Brawl*

Nope, no contact from Kotaku yet. This is starting to many me squeamish since I know it'll take a while to arrive in the post after I give them my postal details. I'm sure they will soon (after all, its Kotaku and not some dodgy fansite...or is it, haha) but even if I can't play it yet I want to get my Disgaea on!

EDIT: Just got the email from Logan (the Kotaku Aus guy) today. Hopefully I wont be waiting too long for my prize to arrive!!!

Honestly, why am I getting so excited about something I can't even USE? lol
