We’ve got a pretty good comp this week on the site. Except there’s not much “competition” in the competition, enter and you’ve pretty much won? Why? Because we’ve got a rather huge 2,000 prizes to win, that’s why.

Plus, the competition question is ridiculously easy – although so far 5 people have managed to get it wrong…

The thing of it all is a ticket to play in the Open Beta of hot new RTS World in Conflict.

Think of it as free fun. Or think of it as a cool way to participate in the development of a game and help it be perfect when it’s released. Or think of it as something to keep you busy inside until it stops raining which is probably bloody never.

It’s cool. Get into it, and while you wait for the beta to go live read our interview with game god Richard Garriott, it’s ace. So’s the Linux vs Linux feature story by Leigh Dyer, it’s a super OS battle with every flavour perfect for a special somebody. Maybe you.

Have fun out there!
