Every goddamn video game magazine from Electronic Gaming Monthly to Game Pro to Nintendo Power ran this contest every other year, upgrading the systems as new ones came out. Even as a teenager, I thought it was all a bullshit scam because no one has ever come forward saying, "Yep, I won ~~The Ultimate Gaming Rig!!©™~~ back then :smug:"

EDIT: Reply is not edit :derp:

Wait this was a scam!?

I remember thinking it was the coolest thing and I would TOTALLY win all of that if only I was allowed to send in money to random ads i saw in magazines.

I was not. Truly, my parents stole from me the most ULTIMATE GAMING RIG.

Honestly how could they run that thing year after year? Its such an obvious scam.
