Well, the turnout was a little disappointing, but for those who entered it just meant your tickets gave you a greater chance of winning.

Overall there were only 33 entrants. There would have been a lot more if everyone who registered commented or posted. We had 103 users register on the site in the competition period. The majority didn’t comment or post to get their first ticket. Maybe they didn’t read the rules or maybe I didn’t make them clear enough. Regardless, this just bettered the chances for those who did read the instructions and joined in the conversation to get their tickets. Thank you to all for getting involved.

Everyone who posted ended up getting at least 2 tickets. Once I added the additional twitter and blog post tickets there was 130 tickets in total.

Pretty good odds for those of you who had 9 tickets.

One random number generator later and we had our winner.

I couldn't believe who won!

The winner was.... ME .... Only joking. I wasn’t in the draw.

The winner was Count. Congratulations dude.

A big thank you to everyone who entered and joined the conversation here on the site. I hope you can stick around into the future.

Yeah congratulations you lucky bastard indeed. ;)

I hope those who registered on the site will continue to use the site now that the competition is over, though no doubt a proportion of them will disappear never to be seen again.

I'll stick around anyways. ;)

I can't believe I have the oppurtunity to play PSP games again, and of course, a big bonus of trying out some awesome PSP minis that Chris reviews.

I will be definitely support this site, and will be spotlighting it on my blogsite! ^_

I guess this would be a bad time for Chris to admit that it was all just a joke, huh Count? :P

Of course I'm just kidding, but for a second there I bet the look on your face was priceless!

Somehow I knew it was going to be Count....

"Count, my heart goes out to you for your PSP loss. Fingers crossed for the draw. But it will be a fair draw."

Hmmm... =)

It's just something to think about, but I'm not bitter for losing, I already have one in my hands right this moment, I just wanted to win one for my brother xD I just wish Blaze would release their 5 in 1 starter kit already.

Too bad they weren't giving away 33 PSP GOs. Then we app could have won.

I was determined to hold a fair draw and if there was any winner on the list that would have had people suspicious it was count.

It's funny, my heart dropped when I saw his name at the winners number. For a second I thought shit, I can't let him win, that's seems way to suss. I have to redraw. But then I realised that would have made it an unfair draw. Exactly what I didn't want.

Count won for real. I couldn't believe it myself. But that's how it is. I guarantee you all had a chance at winning.

I can't stand my integrity being undermined and I really wish Count had never wrote what he did in the introductions topic, but I'm an honest guy and anyone who knows me can testify to that.

I don't think any of us actually think that the contest was rigged. :)

Hmm, I guess it was my bad for posting that. But it was an "introduction thread", after all.

And just to let you guys know. Not 1 thing on my word was a lie. :\

I'm just razzing. I'm glad for the winner, honestly. Enjoy your prize. Play lots of minis and regular PSP games too.

I also hope Sony brings in a lot of developers, big and small, into the mini market. I'd love to see the PSP market grow.

Plus, it would give this website lots of games to review. I like the reviews and this site will be my PSP mini site just like TouchArcade is my iPhone gaming site.

Yeah I'm digging the reviews too. Very Unbiased which is good.

Hmm. In anticipation for your next competition I'd like to boost my chances of winning to the point where it's a guaranteed certainty:

Recently my PSP was also stolen, my dog was run over by a truck, my gold-fish was eaten by the cat, my grandmother died and I lost my job after being caught crying about all the other things. :(

I'm from the UK so you can order mine at play.com. Looking forward to receiving my "randomly" won prize and thanks in advance!

:P

Glad your liking the reviews Little rock. Touch arcade has been an inspiration for this site so hope to make it just as good, but for minis news.

LoL Gareth. Nice one :D

Congrats on winning the raffle Count! Funny how things work out like that. Fate is a fickle mistress and though you were scorned by her before, now you've seen the upside as well.

My suggestion to Chris: To continue to generate interest in the site, might I suggest reaching out to some of the developers for promo codes? I know for PSN games, each developer is allocated a certain number of codes that they can give out for promotional purposes, and a nice contest write-up on your site would be good publicity. Just a suggestion.

Thanks for the suggestion David and funny you mention it but we will be giving out codes for BreakQuest this Friday. Unfortunately only to Oceania and Europe regions. Look out for the post then.

This is something we will try to do more of in the future.
