Try Your Hand At Sony’s Casino Royale Sweepstakes
After reading this warning in today’s paper:
SONY WARNS OF PLAYSTATION SCAMS: Sony Corp. issued a warning Tuesday about false promotional offers for its upcoming PlayStation 3 video game console. A number of Web sites have been promoting preorders on discounted or bulk shipments of the game system without the cooperation of Sony, the company stated. - Associated Press
I decided to visit Sony’s website to learn more. I never got around to finding a list of offenders. I was distracted by Sony’s new promotion for the movie Casino Royale (click to view trailer) opening November 17, and their game Casino Royale 7.
I like games I can play online for free. I love when I can win prizes by playing those games.
When you visit their website you can play four casino games. After you win (you can play until you win) you’re given a coded game piece to print out. (You must register to receive the game pieces.) You then take the game pieces to your local participating electronics store to see if you’re a winner.
After you’ve written down the validation code for the winning game pieces you return home and log back onto the Sony website where you enter the numbers to see what you’ve won. The prizes are listed below. These are some very nice prizes!
You can play every day, and losing game pieces can be submitted with $1.59 s/h for a free deck of playing cards. Okay, so just make sure to preorder your Playstation from a reputable dealer. I have games to play…
