Time is running out to win the Grand Prize in our Hitman Sniper Challenge, but there is still time to get involved. And there's so much up for grabs! For starters, the best overall sniper from the past few months of competition will will a coveted Golden Joystick (to be presented to them at the 30th Annual Golden Joystick Awards in London on October 26, 2012) and have their face scanned into a future Hitman game. Then there's the small matter of an iPad 2, Sennheiser headphones (model U320), chibi Hitman statues and downloadable content for the Monthly winners.

You can read the exact details in the terms and conditions on Page 2 of this very article, but suffice to say we're talking crazy prizes. But keep in mind that due to the Golden Joystick Awards taking place before the end of the month, this month's 'Monthly Winner' will be drawn early as it needs to be a short month to get it all done in time for the ceremony. So you've only got until the 24th of October to register a score for this month's leaderboards! There will, however, be one final month to compete after that for one final Monthly Prize, up until the release of the full version of Hitman Absolution.
