Here is a chance to win the brand new XBox 360 Elite plus a DVD game called Grand Theft Auto 4 to go with the XBox 360 Elite. I saw this contest “Win An XBOX360 Elite Plus Grand Theft Auto 4” on Johncow.com so I thought I would blog about it and hopefully win the XBox 360 Elite. To get a chance of wining the XBox 360 Elite and a copy of Grand Theft Auto 4, you can do a lot of things, you can blog about the contest and include two links 1. to Johncow’s contest post 2. to XBox 360 Elite contest sponsor, Top Hosting Center. If you write a blog post, you will get 250 points, if you signup for an affiliate program of the sponsor, you will get another 250 points. Add 25 points to it if you subscribe to both johncow and Top Hosting Center’s RSS feed. 10 points if you stumble johncow’s XBox 360 Elite contest post. This contest will end on the 30th of April 2008 so there is about 27 days left before a winner is announced. I hope I get this price (All fingers crossed). Ok, enough about the contest, now more about the XBox 360 Elite.
