Win! An Xbox 360 Elite plus Gears of War 2

Gears of War 2 is finally out in UK shops today and to celebrate this momentous occasion, we've teamed up with Microsoft to offer an amazing array of GoW2 prizes.

The winner will receive an Xbox 360 Elite (so that's HDMI-enabled, 120GB hard-drive packing loveliness), complete with a Gears of War 2 faceplate and a copy of the game, along with a limited edition COG tag and a copy of the Gears of War 2 book, Beneath the Surface.

Four runners up will win a copy of the game, book and a COG tag (pictured right). There will then be five prizes of a copy of the game and book, with a final ten prizes of the book alone.

As if you didn't already know, Gears of War 2 is the sequel to Xbox 360's premier shooter, Gears of War. With astonishing visuals, head-stomping gameplay and a new 'Horde' online multiplayer mode, the sequel is likely to be one of 360's best-selling titles. You know, like, ever.
