PAX SWAG: Win one of two MAW Plushies
As part of XBLArcade.com’s coverage of the Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, WA this year, Twisted Pixel Games donated us a couple of MAW plushies to giveaway on the site. Seeing as how The Maw was honored with the Audience Choice Award in the 2008 PAX-10 showcase of independent games, we thought it would be fitting to re-introduce you to this great title! So, if you couldn’t make it to PAX this year, or you were not able to pick-up one of these cute, little, purple guys up; we’re giving you a chance to win one!
The Maw is a full featured 3D action/adventure game for Xbox LIVE Arcade! Returning from a routine mission, a Galactic Bounty Hunter ship crash lands on a strange planet, leaving the captured Frank (our hero) and a tiny glowing blob in a cage labelled "THE DEADLIEST ORGANISM IN THE UNIVERSE" (known as Maw) as the only survivors. Aware of the risks, but concerned about traveling around alone, Frank hooks the strange blob to a plasma leash from the wreckage. Making their way towards the communication tower in the distance, they must escape from the bounty hunters out to cage them, as well as the unknown dangers of the new planet they are on.
Download the trial version now, or pick-up one of the three great "deleted scene" add-ons for the Xbox LIVE Arcade. You can also pick up The Maw on Steam, Greenhouse, or Direct2Drive for the PC.
Winners: 2
Prize: 1 Maw Plushie
Restrictions: Only one entry per person, numerous entries will result in a infraction and disqualification from the contest. North American residents only.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: The contest will be open to all North American (sorry everyone else) members of XBLArcade.com for just over a week.

At that time, we will be asking you (the two winners) for your mailing address so we can ship you your prize. Your address will NOT be used for any other reason. As soon as we receive your details, we will ship you your Maw plushie using regular mail and you should receive it in about 4-6 weeks. Once the winner has been contacted and responds back, their name will be posted here. Remember that multiple entries will be disqualified and that this contest is ONLY available to those living in the US and Canada.
One last thing… if you are attending PAX this weekend, head on over to booth #3102 on the 4th floor of the Main Entrance to the Exhibition Hall and check out some of their fantastic merchandise, or play The Maw and Splosion Man. At 4:00 PM on both Saturday and Sunday they will be showing off their new game Comic Jumper! Tell them the XBLArcade.com sent yah!
Good Luck!!
UPDATE: Contest is now closed and the winner has been contacted. Thank you for all who entered and hopefully you will all continue to stick around to get your XBLA News! Also, thank you to Twisted Pixel Games for providing the Maw plushies to make this contest possible. Make sure to check out all their great games on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace!

I'm following @VanIslePimp on Twitter, my gamertag is alee67, I didn't go to PAX 2009, and I'd love to win one of these Maw plushies. Thanks!
I want it! That is about the coolest plushie I've seen! I have the maw and splosion man, and I'm looking forward to Comic Jumper. The character design is a little weird, but I'm keeping an open mind.
