Promotions & Giveaways

If your here you are prob­a­bly look­ing for some free swag!  We fre­quently host game give­aways here at TGB to thank our fans and read­ers for all of their sup­port.  Check back here often as we con­stantly update this page.  We plan on host­ing sev­eral give­aways over the course of 2011 and well into the future.  Check back here frequently!

Our con­tests are sim­ple and do not require you to “sign up with a sponser” or “give away all your per­sonal infor­ma­tion” or “give out a credit card num­ber” or oth­er­wise sell your soul to get a free game.  We only ask that you like us on face­book, sign up on our site and make some com­ments on cur­rent, future or past arti­cles.  We pick a win­ner ran­domly using a mag­i­cal appli­ca­tion that keeps track of every­one who par­tic­i­pates.  We may also decide to give any par­tic­u­lar per­son a free prize or game for no appar­ent rea­son what so ever so par­tic­i­pate often to be con­sid­ered for those awe­some prizes. 

Cur­rently we are only giv­ing away PC games but we will soon be giv­ing away PS3, 360 and Wii titles as well.  Stay tuned as this will be hap­pen­ing soon.  The PC game give­aways are done through Steam (www.steampowered.com) and you must have a Steam account to receive your prize unless oth­er­wise specif­i­cally stated.  These are legit­i­mate games pur­chased through Steam and are garun­teed to work.

If you have any ques­tions about our pro­mo­tions or give­aways please feel free to con­tact us.  Good luck!
