Aces of the Galaxy Contest
Think you've got some skills in Aces of the Galaxy? Feel like picking up one of Sierra's XBLA titles mostly free of charge?
Then we've got the contest for you.
Together with Sierra, XBLArcade.com are giving away one of the Sierra's XBLA titles to each of the first three people who complete these steps:
1) Start Playing Aces of the Galaxy
2) Get the “Hero of Vanguardia-7” achievement
3) Make a comment on this post bragging about your skills.
While it looks to be one of the harder XBLA Achievements, Sierra had decided to take almost all the skill out of it with this overly helpful Video that tells you exactly how to beat the game.
Please note that in determining who are the first three, we will be going by when you post that you have the achievement here; not when you actually get the achievement! Also anyone found bragging about their skills without actually getting the Achievement will be disqualified and generally mocked for being the cheater that they are.

Not exactly free of charge if we have to buy a game to enter is it now?

This is hard. My hands have started to hurt from playing Aces so I decided to take a little break. I hope I make it in time, I've probably gotten 5 stars on ten levels so far. Do we get to choose what game of Sierra's we get if we win? I'm hoping for Assault Heroes 2.

I'm playing the game right now. Looks like I don't have to rush anymore then to enter the contest. I just needed to get five stars on three more levels. Last time I checked I was number 17 on the leaderboards and I liked the game ( I decided to purchase the game because of this contest) , so at least I have that.

If any sierra people are watching this thread your giveaways suck. The same people are getting all your rewards...

Well to be honest I have most of the Sierra games and really am mostly interested in giving them feedback on their promotions. Basically if you are going to do these "achievement" based promotions on 3 different sites you are really going to end up giving the same 3 people all the rewards. Like I said even if I won I would most likely have given the code away because I have most Sierra games already.
Anyway welcome to xblarcade.com... I hope you stick around and contribute.

Don't give gamerevx his reward!!! He is lying, he is not really gamerevx!! That "I dropped my isp" thing whatever is a scam. Send a message to the gamertag first to make sure. He did this on 2 other sites with 2 different gamertags!!!
Aside from that, when do I get my reward lol

I'm definately going to send a message to the gamercard, don't worry about that. Also note that we'll be mixing it up a bit next time to try and avoid these problems in the future.
