It’s time to announce the winners in the xBox Live Second Chance Giveaway, but before I do I want to thank everyone who participated. I know I’ve been doing a whole lot more giveaways than I normally do, and there are few reasons for this: one, these prizes are particularly awesome. Two, it’s the holidays! And three, I want to give back to you after all the support you’ve given me over the years. If this whole thing ignites the tiniest jolt of excitement in the winners, then I think it’s a success.

And so, congratulations to:
