Mighty Gaming Screenshot Competition with ASUS!

By Ben

Ahhhh the lost art of screenshots, Nvidia Shadowplay Game Capture has opened up a whole new world of sharing to us but sometimes that one sweet screenshot is worth a hundred hours of gameplay :)

Maybe you are the Master of Character Creation, perhaps you have crafted a mine so epic, so vast, so.. Wallpaper Worthy that it simply must be shared!

We would love to see a bit of what you're all playing so with the help of our friends at Asus we've cooked up a MIGHTY GAMING SCREENSHOT COMPETITION!

Up for grabs we've got the excellent Asus 24" Monitor ready to deliver bright crisp images to our winners eyes as they play their favourite game!

To be in to win simply snap a screenshot of your amazing character, tricked out ride, killing machine (or whatever you're playing as!)

Then post it to instagram along with the hashtag #ScreenShotAsus and you'll be in the draw! Be sure to @mighty.ape so we can check them all out!

If you feel you're screenshot won't be done justice without the higher quality you can email them through to gorillarigs@mightyape.co.nz or use options offered by imgur or similar to link to your images in the comments below as well :)

We'll be adding the screenshots to our New Screenshot Gallery whenever possible so be sure to swing by and check it out!

We're looking for screenshots that impress or amuse for this competition so get gaming, share some cool screenshots along the way and you could be treating your eyes to a brand new screen!

Double points for bananas or monkeys :) we'll be announcing the winner on the 20th July!

Game on!

    Here is my entry for the competition, recently started playing Warframe and thought it'd be cool to design a Mighty Ape styled tenno with the blue, orange and white colours (had to pay for a colour palette). Complete with banana sword!!

    Very cool tenno, I use the Skana as well :) hopefully I'll find the parts I need to build my second one soon!

    Here's my Sylvari Elementalist, Amfortas Agravain, exploring the Risen Undead infested landscape of Mount Maelstrom in Guild Wars 2.

    While the gameplay of GW2 is incredibly fun I often find myself stopping and staring at the scenery. The game isn't the most graphically impressive, but there are times when it manages to look insanely beautiful.

    @ Philip - That looks awesome, I also love the little guy on the left that snuck into your screenshot :)

    Metro 2033 (redux). Probably the most beautiful game available when it was released, just downloading Last Light on Steam now! It's a shame screenshots don't have sound - the story telling and atmosphere is incredible.

    This is my best screenshot of my entire 320 hours of DayZ standalone. I have gotten to the point of wandering around Chernarus aimlessly looking for the higher luxuries of the game, such as helicopter crash sites or driveable vehicles (I'm still yet to find a helicopter crash site). This was one of the last few screenshots I took before I was killed by a mob of 4 players in an epic standoff. I hope you enjoy the scenery as much as I did :)

    i couldn't decide with these two,

    1. FF14
    2. Spintires - hardcore mode and i flipped my truck and my mate was coming to help and thought he would climb a tree on the way

    I really don't think i have picked a better load-out or colour scheme in Warframe before.

    Skyrim is far too arctic for either bananas or monkeys.

    But I did manage to grab a shot with this cute little fellow instead:

    Sometimes the only way to kill your enemies is by using their own heads to fire lasers at them.

    @ Everyone - I've just set aside the monitor and realised it's a bigger 24" version - links updated :)

  • Jaison says: 20 July 2015, 1:42pm

    @ Ben - I don't think anyone will be complaining!
