July Contest Details

It's July. Summer is officially here, gaming news slump is in full effect post-E3, and we're all talking about what will happen later this year in gaming. But, we still have some Amazon Gift Cards to give out, if you choose to participate.

PLEASE NOTE: There is an additional contest that will be posted next week in place of the usual random comment lottery. A separate blog post will be made for that contest.

.

HAD THOUGHT, TYPED IT UP, WON SOMETHING
The top two user blogs in the month of July, as voted by the N4G admin team, will win an Amazon Gift Card. Thoughts on the new consoles and what they mean for our current generation of gaming? Thoughts on why people keep insisting on declaring games Game of the Year prior to their release? Mario or Luigi, who wore it better? Write a blog and you could win.

Prize: 2 winners, a $75 Amazon Gift Card each

So for example, I submitted that Warriors news and it reached today's hottest. Does that mean I get anything?

Fullmetalevolust3524d ago

Congrats and keep at it, I've submitted some news in the past and it's never gotten that much attention. Keep up the good work. You'll have to submit all month long.

Who won last months competition?

Deadpooled3524d ago (Edited 3524d ago )

The "Today's hottest" continually changes depending on the time it was submitted, from personal experience of submitting articles last month for that competition it's around 24hours since approval when it stays on the front page then goes for the next highest heat one to be the hottest of the day. Most likely if the article gets 1000 degree+ heat it likely gets a top news rank. Last month my C Rank went up from 5 to 9.

We're still tabulating things. As stated in the rules of every monthly contest, we'll notify winners by the 7th of the next month (that means the 7th of July). The public will know at the same time.

I hope the Switch 1 reaches 160M+ before production stops. 😅

There was a worldwide chip shortage when PS5 released so not an apples to apples comparison.

Christopher1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Pretty sure Japan had plenty of PS5 on the shelves to buy no matter what. The fact is, Japan has moved to mobile gaming over standard home console. Software sales alone show that.
