We are entering into our fourth month of running Gears of War Wednesday now and we’re still welcoming new p33ps each week.
Although there were a few regulars missing last night we were lucky enough to be able to welcome back some old skool p33ps, including the October brothers who marked their return to battle with a (few) hearty musical numbers.
Yesterday we gave you the chance to win 15 double-tickets for an opening day screening of Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menace 3D, courtesy of Xbox South Africa.
You don’t have to travel back in time and visit a galaxy far, far away for a chance to witness the birth of the Star Wars series of cinematic masterpieces - all you need to do is live in Johannesburg and enter El33tonline and Xbox 360 South Africa’s competition!
El33tonline and Xbox 360 South Africa are giving away 15 double-tickets for an opening day screening of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace 3D this Friday, February 10th, at Monte Casino in Johannesburg.
Why? Simply because we want as many people as possible to experience the movie in spectacular 3D and celebrate the upcoming release of Kinect Star Wars!
Zip over to El33tonline’s Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace 3D Competition page for details on how to win a double ticket to the movie - there are chances to win on El33tonline, Facebook and Twitter too!
This is a quick-fire competition and we need to find our winners early today! Tell your friends and family to get entering, too!
“You know the drill soldier! The battle begins at 20:00, sharp, over the fabled battlegrounds of Xbox LIVE! Keep those Lancers revving and keen, but whatever you do don’t tear into the enemy until you see the whites of their eyes… on the ground!
Ha! I just made that one up right here on the spot - good one, wasn’t it?
I said, good one, wasn’t it?
Nervous laughter, now that’s what I like to hear! There’s no shame in being nervous before a big battle, soldiers, that Gears of War 3 videogame will break even the steeliest of nerve - doesn’t matter if you’re a veteran or an amateur.
That’s why we play… on Gears of War Wednesday.”
Final Fantasy XIII-2 was recently released around the world on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, signalling the return of an RPG series that was once considered the most cherished of videogames!

When EA and Starbreeze Studios confirmed that a ‘re-invented’ first-person iteration of Syndicate was in the works, nostalgic gamers the world over immediately decried the publisher/developer pair’s lack of reverence for the original, classic cyberpunk strategy game series.
As the months went on, however, and more information, screenshots and videos came to light, gamers were slowly won over by the new vision for the franchise, while the recently released demo put a nail in the coffin of any doubts we may have had about the game’s additional four-player co-operative mode.
Syndicate is due for release in South Africa on February 24th across Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, and EA South Africa and El33tonline are giving you all a chance to win a copy of the tactical first-person action game on all platforms, and to stand in line to win we’re giving you a task worthy of an agent! Well… a rookie agent.
Head on over to El33tonline’s Syndicate Competition page to accept your task - you might soon be filling the technology-imbued boots of an agent in Syndicate.
Be sure to join El33tonline and friends for games of Battlefield 3 tonight at 20:15 on Xbox LIVE and sign up for the El33t_P33Ps platoon in Battlelog.

The Durban heat is more draining than usual today so this introduction is going to be cut real short, everybody…
… but not before we invite you to let us know what you’re going to be keeping busy with this weekend. If you’re playing a game, seeing a movie or catching up on some reading (or sleep, even), tell us what you thought of your chosen activities on Monday morning, too.
Before this keyboard hosts a collapsed body, however, let’s take a look at what members of El33tonline will be up to over the next few days:

In order to keep you on your toes, El33tonline decides to spring quick-fire giveaways on you through channels like Facebook and Twitter when you’re least expecting them.
Last week, Lisa sprung just such a surprise on our unsuspecting friends to give everyone a chance to claim some awesome Nintendo goodies! So who snagged the prizes?
Battlefield 3 is by far the most fun I have had online since I discovered online gaming. What makes it so good for me has to be the squad system where smaller squads fight in the same big team towards the bigger goal.
Everyone who has played some Battlefield 3 online has immediately been hooked. Apart from Oliver who has owned the game for more than a week and is yet to play a game with me. I figure he is avoiding the addictive nature of this online phenomenon. Don’t worry OL, stick with me and I will look after you.
