I'm a member over on Gamertag.com, an Xbox-centric website dedicated to 360 gaming. They recently had a contest, wherein the winner would receive 1,600 Microsoft points (the 'currency' used in their online shop to buy downloadable games, pics, etc.). IIRC, that's about $25 in value; there's talk that there may be another small prize alongside it.
The contest was "Be the Voice of Sam Fisher". Fisher's the main character (an NSA agent that works for a 'shadow operations' group called Third Echelon) in the Splinter Cell titles, a series known for its 'stealth-action' gameplay. Michael Ironsides has voiced him since the beginning, but rumors suggest that the next installment will be utilizing a new voiceactor (which is sad, because I just can't see Fisher sounding any other way).
Anyways, the contest basically entailed saying a few lines, recording them, and sending the recording into the website. Just got the PM this morning, I won!
Yaaay! So now I can go buy a couple XBLA games I've been eyeing! :)
