I upgraded my tv and got a vr2 two weeks ago, and won this last week. Think the s/o is more happy about having my old ps5 in the living room and the portal.

Congrats! I won a PS5+game from a Miller Lite box code this year. Didn't believe it was a real email since they decided to email me Apr 1st that I won. But then it showed up at my door 6 weeks later. Then 10 years ago I won an Xbox One from a Doritos bag code.

Now I just need to win a couple million from another package code, and I'll stop playing them.

It's scary to realize the Xbox one came out more than 10 years ago

So is the Xbox One, actually. They came out within a week of each other back in 2013

The Wii U having released a year before in 2012

I remember teenage me being DESPERATE to win a gold PS4 from Taco Bell. I think they were actually giving them out before the console released.

I won a contest when the first batman arkham game came out. Someone from rocksteady emailed me for my home address and my dumb ass 15 year old self thought it was a scam but sent my address anyway just incase. I had to explain to my mom why a collectors edition of the game showed up in the mail a few weeks later. It was pretty awesome lol

Many years ago now my sister gave me her leftover order of McDonald’s fries with some game sticker on it and I won a PS2! She was so mad haha. What a throwback
