[xXx aGeAn xXx]

I vote for Mature Rated RPG, and good luck Roza

[Gradon]

I don't know many Mature Rated RPG's, so I picked a Survival Horror game that's not RE.
So about the theme; can we pick any? Or do we get a theme based on the most votes?
Another thing, I PM my submission to you, right?
Also, finally, good luck to my opponent, SMHS. ;)

I was expecting lots of Silent Hill boxes :P

[xXx aGeAn xXx]

I was expecting lots of Silent Hill boxes :P

So is the horror thing the theme?, or is that just speculation?

[roza]

I vote for Mature Rated RPG, and good luck Roza

yeah, id say that too! and thnks, good look to you too!

[Silent Oblivion]

Nope. Look at the poll. Whichever has the most votes by Monday is the theme.

[Ultima]

I was expecting lots of Silent Hill boxes :P

That too! But there's already so many on the site. I don't know if I'm allowed to vote, but I'm going with Downloadable games!

[Silent Oblivion]

Anyone can vote, its just this Round thats having the choice.

[Silent Oblivion]

The Theme has been decided:
Xbox Live/PSN Download Only Title.

For example:
GTA: The Lost and Damned
Watchmen: The End is Nigh etc.

[crazyjp]

Haha,Ok.
Get ready S_O.

I'm just lucky it wasn't some horror box,I would have been destroyed.

[Silent Oblivion]

What if I choose a downloadable Horror title?

Mwhahahahha!

Oh, if your doing a PSN game, you can try and make a temp for it, or just use the 'Playstation Network' PS3 temp. For 360, you can try and find a Xbox Live Marketplace template, maybe ask Rossugues, or just the normal Xbox 360 Live temp.

[KOSMOSinusa]

Hey Silent_Oblivion Can we let bygones be bygones and can I join your contest?

[Silent Oblivion]

Its full, but you can act as an replacement (for if someone drops out).
Make your box and send it to me before the deadline (above) and if anyone drops out, then you will enter teh comp.

[KOSMOSinusa]

Thanks I know this sounds wierd but how do i send it too you? ( I really don't know).

[Silent Oblivion]

Private Message?
Just go onto my forum profile, and click on the 'Send Message' button, then click send a private message.

To get your image/box on there, I would use Photobucket. Upload it onto there, then choose the 'IMAGE' code, and copy and paste it into the Private Message.

Also, just to clarify, you CAN post your box on the site before the comp ends and you CANNOT use the Critques forum.

So no WIP threads, and we can post it before the round is posted? Ok I am excited about this comp!!

[Gradon]

What is the maximum pixel size for our presentation?
Is 1600x1200 okay? Or way too big?

[Silent Oblivion]

Too big xD

Go for something like, 1024 x 768, or 1280 x 960

[Gradon]

[Silent Oblivion]

Yep.
