Tell us & WIN! - Prizeback Winner Announced!

By Ben

Over the long weekend we asked you to share your wonderful gaming tales – in particular those regarding multiplayer moments, madness and messups!

This could have been anything from fending off all challengers on the classic Mortal Kombat arcade machine, or when you made it through that all-nighter to beat the original Halo in co-op… a League of Legends match in which the perfect arrow from Ashe brought you a last minute win, or that car you all hopped into while playing GTA V – which then drove of the cliff…

Most importantly a cool moment you've had with your friends :)

Up for grabs we have a limited edition SilverStone custom Gorilla Rig to brighten things up – our Prizeback Gaming Rig is packed to the rim with choice components and just wants to play games with YOU!

Of course you guys and girls didn't make it easy on us, providing enough great stories to make a small novel :) We particularlly enjoyed the honest tale from Kitchener of bravery amongst friends, the Gnome Rogue who kept stealing flags from a large Tauren Warrior, the sad stories from Tobias and Jackson of their survival (and later deaths) in a zombie apocalypse and the face-off between Nic and a creeper that didn't end so well…

Of course – we must have a winner!

The corp mate that just left the system was his scout! – I made a mental note to put it in that characters description as I launched my drones and started trying to lock onto him.. knowing he was probably fitted with a passive shield tank I knew if I could out last him I would win with my active armour tank and energy vampire modules in my high slots that should feed me enough power to keep my systems alive. My heart was pounding in my chest – it does not seem to matter how much your ship is worth nor how much money you have in your wallet. As soon as you start a fight in eve you know that odds good that some one is going to lose their ship… forever.

As we closed to engage his shields began to drop… fast. Too fast to be passive tanking I thought – his shields hit 20% HP and as if on que there it was. That insidious pulse of blue across his ship and as his shields repaired from his shield booster I knew the fight was already decided.

Congratulations Zara!

You've won our Limited Edition SilverStone Gaming Rig! We've uploaded our latest benchmark for it to the Gorilla Rigs Youtube Channel so you can check it out!
