cr1s' Christmas Giveaway: 2018 Edition [Status: Closed]

[cr1s 2,970]

Happy Holidays, PSNProfiles!

 

This is the first in what I hope will be a series of annual Christmas giveaways. There's nothing like spreading some holiday cheer, even with the bad times we may be going through. And that's exactly what I've decided to do to this fine community this year, and hopefully in the future as well. I had initially wanted to do something like this a long time ago, but I've only recently gotten financially stable thanks to finally starting a full-time job, so let's do this!

 

The premise is simple: just reply below to enter the draw. If you feel like it, you can also answer the following question: What's your favorite Christmas memory?

 

There will be a total of 6 randomly-picked winners, each getting the following:

• A 20$/20€/20£ PSN card (or any other equivalent of your choice)
  • Note on equivalents: I may not be able to get you an equivalent card depending on what country you request, as some websites only accept PayPal as a method of payment, which is not available in my country. I will do my very best to get you one, but please bear with me if I cannot do so. In that case, you'd have to choose another country, preferably US or UK.
  • Also, a huge shoutout to @olliebear66t for contributing a 20£ PSN card to this giveaway.
• AND a PSNP Lifetime Premium Membership. If you happen to be a Premium Member already, you can definitely gift it to a non-premium member of your choice instead.

 

The giveaway will run until Thursday, December 27 at 10:00 PM GMT, after which entries will be closed. The winners will be announced on Friday, December 28 at around 10:00 AM GMT, and the prizes will also be distributed during the same day.

 

Sorry for the lack of banners and formatting.

 

Edit 1: The winners have now been announced!

 

Edit 2: The prizes have all been distributed and the giveaway is now over. I'll see you in the future with more giveaways, hopefully!

Thanks for the giveaway!

Hm, I don't think I have that many strong Christmas memories?  My family doesn't do much.  I did, however, get my first video game, Kingdom Hearts, on Christmas however many years ago.

Thanks for the giveaway.

As for favorite Christmas memories, while it may not be my one of my top memories, there was this one time my cousin has a camcorder and was filming the family gathering.  When she got to pointing the camera at my brother, he was nonchalantly picking his nose (I don't think he ever noticed the camera).

Merry Christmas and thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite Christmas memory is when I was little and going downstairs to see a pretty purple and white bike sitting next to the tree. I can still remember how I felt that day. ^.^

[SerpentSeed 212]

Thank you for the giveaway.

My favorite Christmas memory is getting Pokemon Gold. When I unwrapped I started gasping and I was told to breathe. I did not see it coming.

Thanks man, 

My memory would be the one where I got a ps3 in 2012, it was like christmas eve and my dad and mom was out shopping in the afternoon while I was watching Star wars: the clone wars when they called me about a surprise (I was 14 at that time).

Hi, merry christmas and thank you for this giveaway.

 

My favourite memory was twenty years (approximately) ago when I unwrapped the PS1. It was my first game console and everyone in my family was around me being very happy seeing how excited I was

[sephiroth4424 4,010]

Merry Christmas! Thanks for the giveaway!

Unfortunately the strongest memory i have from Christmas is a sad one, so i'll just say that i got my first console in Christmas, Super Nintendo with Yoshi's Island and Toy Story

[Solid-Fisch 604]

My favorite memory? Um, maybe sounds a bit mawkish but it honestly is the big Christmas dinner with lots of family members, including  my parents, siblings, grandparents, great-grand parents. uncle with his girlfriend and so on... That was a long time ago but it was really funny. Nowadays it's only my parents and siblings left. The rest died or has no relation to my family anymore. Yeah thats sad but life's not always beautiful. Some people even don't have anybody. Pray for those. Merry Christmas to everyone!

Thanks for the giveaway.

My favorite Christmas memory was opening a PlayStation 2 after launch when they were extremely limited and hard to get. I was so darn surprised because I had nothing preordered or anything and my dad actually got it by someone he knew at a store hooked him up. I had friends with preordered systems that couldn't get one until the next shipment which was like 6 months or so after launch.

Thanks for the giveaway

 

My favorite Christmas memory would probably be when i got my first ps2 console along with the games crash wrath of cortex and harry potter the prisoner of askaban. Still love those games and my ps2 till this day

Thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite memories are those dinners with all my family members (aunts, uncles, cousins, etc) it was like a tradition :), nowadays we no longer do that 😞

[Mesopithecus 5,217]

My favorite Christmas memory was when I was around 6, going into my parents room every half an hour during the night and asking them if it was time to get up yet.  I must have decided to be more efficient because I fell asleep on the duvet that they had kicked off onto the floor at the foot of the bed, so when my dad woke up to go and put the oven on for the turkey I gave him quite the fright when I popped my head up from the bottom of the bed asking if it was now time to get up

 

That Christmas was a big exciting family one, as my grandparents were celebrating a big wedding anniversary on Boxing Day.  I remember it being chaotic, we actually lived next door to my grandparents so there were people over spilling into both houses and everyone was all hands-on-deck with helping make the buffet style supper.

 

Merry Christmas and thanks for the giveaway

My best Christmas memory is five years ago, when my father was still alive and healthy

[Ghost 2,985]

Thanks for the giveaway.

One of my favorite memories is going with my cousin and visiting New York to visit my other cousins. Spent Christmas day drinking and gaming and on New Years was a big party. And today, just like every year since, spending time with uncles, aunts, cousins and their babies

Thanks for the giveaway.

 

My favourite memory is pregnancy the nostalgia of simpler days back when I was a kid. The whole family used to meet at my grandparents house and theliving room had a big Christmas tree on a table and underneath the tree, also on the table, were a lot of dried grass and a stable with Mary and Josef and little Jesus in a cripple and around the stable were figurines of sheep and cows and Shepards. And Christmas music was playing from an old CD player. We all sat around a table in the kitchen and ate what everyone brought and after dinner my grandpa would ring a little bell and we kids could come into the living room to find mountains of presents underneath the tree just for the three of us (my two cousins and me)...

 

It were wonderful days. Nowadays Christmas had lost all its wonder for me. It always makes me sad.

Merry Christmas and thanks for the giveaway cr1s!

 

One of  my best Christmas memories is when I got home from a three week stay at the hospital after surgery, just in time to spend Christmas at home with friends and family. 

[Terra 5,547]

It's really nice that you're doing a giveaway! Hope your Christmas is going well!

 

My favorite Christmas memory? Oh wow. I'd say this year because my mother forgot to take the candy out of the stockings and someone turned the fireplace on two days ago so taking them out they all melted. Oh well but it was well worth the laughs

[TugaSonic 1,148]

Merry Christmas (Happy Holidays) to anyone who reads this.

 

Thanks for the giveaway. As a Christmas Memory, I don't really have one since my family isn't really into it but if I had to choose it would probably be when I bought my PSP with my own money for Christmas. It was the first console I ever bought since all the others in the house belonged to my older brother and I still love it to this day even after replacing it with my Vita.

[FrenchDevil54 420]

Thanks for doing this! Merry Christmas to all! 🎅
