by Richard Mitchell { Mar 17th 2008 at 12:00PM }

Update: This giveaway is now closed and our winner will be notified shortly.

Don't ask us how we did it, but we managed to snag a custom Mass Effect Xbox 360 Elite. It comes complete with everything you'd expect in an Elite, including the 120GB hard drive and HDMI cable along with all the slick black accessories. And, as you can see, it's decked out with sweet Mass Effect artwork. Seeing as this is such an incredible prize, we're going to forgo our usual Fanswag Weekly in favor of a monster five day giveaway.

You want this Mass Effect Elite? Leave a comment on this post explaining the massive effect this prize would have on your life. You can enter once per calendar day (Eastern Time).
Be sure you only leave one comment per day. Posters of multiple comments during the same day will be disqualified. We'll accept entries until Friday, March 21, 12:00pm Noon, Eastern Time. You must be at least 18 years old to enter. This giveaway is open only to residents of the U.S. and Canada (excluding Quebec).
On Friday, we'll pick one winner via a random drawing

Erik Horte @ Mar 17th 2008 12:05PM

The effect would be pretty massive, seeing as how my third 360 has gotten the red rings and I'm unable to play Mass Effect. :(

Brogdan @ Mar 17th 2008 12:07PM

I would LOVE to win this Mass Effect 360 Elite. I'm a huge fan of Mass Effect, and everything else Bioware. :-)

david gregoire @ Mar 17th 2008 12:09PM

This xbox would destroy what little life I had left without mass effect.

Matt Vidito @ Mar 17th 2008 12:08PM

I'd LOVE this xbox 360. The effect it would have one me? Well, for one I'd finally be able to own my very own 360 and be able to enjoy what you all are experiencing!!

Jerry @ Mar 17th 2008 12:08PM

I DeX I @ Mar 17th 2008 12:09PM

Jason @ Mar 17th 2008 12:18PM

Winning this system would impact me greatly, I believe my wife would stay if I had more hard drive space...

Bill @ Mar 17th 2008 12:12PM

This 360 would give me a massive reason to play Mass Effect for a 3rd time.

GoBob @ Mar 17th 2008 12:11PM

Playing Mass Effect(and eventually 2!) on a Mass Effect Elite would have a massive effect on my ego. =D

Dan Lugo @ Mar 17th 2008 12:12PM

This elite would massively a(e)ffect my gaming and i'll be seen as teh awesome

Adam Looney @ Mar 17th 2008 12:13PM

Winning this 360 would look really nice in my entertainment center. (This one is much classier looking than other "themed" consoles). Though the effect on me would not be nearly as great as it would be on my cousin, who would inherit my current, plain ol' 360.

Zoot Suit Jedi @ Mar 17th 2008 12:12PM

This would be massively effective at affecting my mass, as I would not leave my house due to the effect of Mass Effect and a currently defective console.

Jimmy @ Mar 17th 2008 1:05PM

This would look massively sweet in my bedroom...

Timothy Malin @ Mar 17th 2008 1:00PM

OMG! I think I just p'eed a little! I'm speechless as to how MASSive of an EFFECT this would have on me!!!

Philip @ Mar 17th 2008 12:13PM

Winning this would make my brain turn massive.

DustyPhoenix @ Mar 17th 2008 12:41PM

I might cry. :)

DustyPhoenix.

Mike @ Mar 17th 2008 12:13PM

It would get my wife off my back about wanting a 360 elite...and that's huge!

xx THRILLH0 XX @ Mar 17th 2008 12:14PM

This would make me go for 1000/1000 gs on ME

Bioware for life!

Marc Santos @ Mar 17th 2008 12:15PM

Joseph Brumleve @ Mar 17th 2008 12:15PM

I would use this Mass Effect customized Elite to play games on, most notably Mass Effect.

Captain Obvious @ Mar 17th 2008 12:14PM

I would be able to watch downloaded programs in my bedroom. I'm talking about programs like Lost or Heroes.

ExEBGuy @ Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM

Winning this would allow me to finally finish Mass Effect which would have add some Massive points to my gamerscore!

DeaconBlade 360 @ Mar 17th 2008 12:15PM

wow. i know i won't win but this console would massively increase my chances to participate in some alien lesbianism for sure. how could the alien ladies resist Shepard if he's playing on a uber console like this! i'd be the life of the alien party!

autochthonous @ Mar 17th 2008 12:19PM

Mass Effect leaves a massive effect in my pants.

Preacherman23 @ Mar 17th 2008 12:15PM

It would be cool to have.

MDJ2010 @ Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM

Im from the UK so cant enter this contest, so it would mean nothing to my life. I suggest giving it to Eric Cartman, Kyle must have destroyed his 360 by now. He hasn't learnt a thing you guys!

Jonah Falcon @ Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM

I desperately need that 120gig HD. Plus, it would go with the other massive things I have. :p

Jer @ Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM

This would be the final piece of Spectre Master Gear to complete my arsenal.

Neuromancer @ Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM

It would have a massive effect on my bank account after hawking it on eBay.

zack @ Mar 17th 2008 12:17PM

I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY Want It!!!!!!

DemonGSides @ Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM

I would be able to donate my regular 360 to charity, and perhaps brighten the lives of another gamer family.

Not only massively effecting my life, but someone elses as well.

Andre @ Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM

Massive effect? I would have an Xbox not even my rich friends can buy. :)

RicePudding @ Mar 17th 2008 12:45PM

Winning an Xbox elite would let me replace the one that my brother had stolen out of his room at college, so that we could finally play Halo 3 together.

Reviler @ Mar 17th 2008 4:42PM

Playing on this console would finally inspire me to get the achievement for completing the game on insanity mode.

Vcize @ Mar 17th 2008 12:17PM

In addition to the regular edition of the game that I play on, I also bought one of the Collector's Editions for Mass Effect to leave unopened on my shelf. That is how massive an effect the game has had on me, so you can imagine what this console will do.

g4barry @ Mar 17th 2008 12:17PM

This would have a massive effect on my life. I would be so much cooler than those nerds at the local GameStop.

Hipple @ Mar 17th 2008 12:17PM

this would double the number of 360's I own.

Chuck @ Mar 17th 2008 12:17PM

This Mass Effect Elite would have a mass e(a)ffect on my wallet saving me $450.

hunter2223 @ Mar 17th 2008 12:21PM

I would finally be able to use this elite, and give my Current 360 to my Little brother who has a game leg and other game parts and would love to have a 360 of his very own... but he can't have mine unless I get a free one from someone else because I'm selfish... So winning this would make me less selfish. And that's good.
