    Default Interesting Atari Contest from GameStop

    http://www.gamestop.com/gs/flashback...backsweeps.asp

    I'm surprised these guys even mentioned "5200" and "Lynx" or do they even know what those mean?

    Contest is long over btw
    These cartridges are dirty as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!

    Dammit! I wish I would have read that. I just now tried to enter and thought 10 months is a long as hell time to hold a contest.

    Doh! I just put my email in too. Gotta give us slow people more of a warning.

    I love that picture though...something doesn't quite belong.

    ehh... would have been much cooler had they been New, in Box...

    Maybe we all would have noticed it, instead of waiting 10 months to mention it :P

    Sorry man, I don't usually point out typos (cause I also suck at spelling), but that one just struck me as funny.

    Maybe I'm missing something here, but how is this contest over? There is a link to the contest on the frontpage at Gamestop.com

    Why didn't someone notice this contest before then? 1) It's still on the front page. 2) The Flashback didn't come out until, what, last month? And apparently, they just threw it together. They probably didn't even have it planned last March.
