I deserve to win because playing this game will keep me from taunting old people down at the Rest Home.

I deserve to win this prize because I don't believe Serena Williams is a man.

I'd like the game because I've literally never won anything ever. I love the older Top Spins and played them like crazy, can't buy this one though cause I don't buy games anymore seeing I work at my crappy job just enough to pay for necessities.

Thanks for the opportunity to win.

Why I deserve to win (assuming I'm not late here)

* Tester and statistical research on Madden Manifesto in 2005
* Main tester for Spin16s progression and franchise stat fix utilities
* Made the initial smart *** post on EA Sports forums that brought Ian Cummings to MM, which in turn lead to the 'challenge' that LBzrule made that brought him here as well.
* Currently polling, tracking, and compiling for the Community Wishlist as requested by Ian.

Now I feel all sheepish for singing my own praises. Meh... free stuff, gotta do whatcha gotta do.

I deserve to win this game because since 2000, I have been a huge 2k sports fan. I have bought every 2k basketball game and football. I have also enjoyed top spin and top spin 2, as i play tennis myself. I still play top spin 2 daily and look for new competition on the 360. I have downloaded the demo for top spin 3 and it seems AMAZING. I cant wait.

Please pick me.

# 46 nctiger @ 07/07/08 01:31 AM

Gotta be because I am over 40 and hand-eye co-ordination is starting to slow. This game would correct that and may even keep me from getting Alzheimers!

# 47 baumy300 @ 07/07/08 01:58 AM

Well, two reasons to be honest.

One of them being because I have to use the bulk of my money to pay my tuition just so I can get my degree, and therefore other than for games like NCAA and Madden, I can't really budget in a game I'd like to get (like Top Spin)

The second reason is that I'm becoming interested in tennis, slowly. Now that I am out of high school I find there are not a lot of football teams to join, or even basketball and softball teams in my neck of the North Dakota woods. Don't laugh, but finding enough people to field a softball game is tough. So tennis is a sport that only takes one other person and I've been slowly making a push towards playing it some more.

This may sound crazy, but maybe I'd learn something about tennis just from playing top spin.

Dear Operation Sports,

I have been a long time fan of both Operation Sports and tennis. I have been a member of Operation Sports since 2003, and I have not eclipsed the five hundred post mark. The reason I have chosen to ask for a free copy of Top Spin tennis is quite simply the most simple reason of all. I want to play this game, but cannot shell out the cash for a game that I think is overpriced. Top Spin seems to be a good game, but I do not think it is a great one. I would love the oppurtunity to spend some quality time with Top Spin, as I have extremely high hopes that Operation Sports giving me this game might make me a lifelong fan of Top Spin.

Thanks,

madscientist

I've always loved Top Spin games from what i played, but could never work them into the small budget that allowed only me to only purchase a few games every year. I tried the demo of Top Spin 3 and I was extremely impressed, but I need to save up money for NCAA 09 (which I don't have enough money for as of now). Plus, like most other people, I've never won anything and I admit I'd be pretty excited!!

# 50 pf8363 @ 07/07/08 02:46 AM

I would like it, but I dont think I deserve it more than anyone else. Give it to somebody that does.

# 51 texbuk84 @ 07/07/08 05:33 AM

i trhink i deserve a copy of the game and to win because I need to get some more videogames for my 360. i bought PS3 and i thought it was the greatest thing until it counded out on me and Sony wanted me to pay 150 dollars to get it fixed. i went to gamestop and they gave me 220 for the system and i bought a used 360 for 189 dollars(horray me!!!). my boys alll have 360 so they welcomed me back to the community like i was the prodigical son and now that i'm back i only have 3 games to play and can't finacially afford another one right now so this would help.(no pitty here just telling the truth) plus this is my favorite website to blog on. thanks OS for everything

# 52 ManiacMatt1782 @ 07/07/08 08:29 AM

I should win because I am no more deserving than any other OS member, however I am honest enough to admit that. Plus I wasted money on Virtua Tennis 3, so a free good tennis game would be nice.

# 53 BrianFifaFan @ 07/07/08 08:58 AM

It seems a bit indulgent to sell oneself as being deserving but I'll express why I'd really love to have this prize. Like many on here times have gotten a bit tighter, in my case having having a child now and working for a GM suppier that was laid off for a while due to the American Axle strike. Both of these were events that impacted my gaming lifestyle and purchasing decisions. The first I would never call anything but the greatest thing ever to happen to me.To wrap it up, I love gaming. And since the birth of my son my greatest joy is to "create a player" of him. I get to dream of him playing at "The Big House" or Old Trafford. It'd be cool to have him playing at Arthur Ashe in the Open! Thanks, Brian

There has to be a better way of determining the winner of these giveaways. This is just pathetic and sad.

Hey everybody, trade your dignity for a free tennis game!

# 55 labguy @ 07/07/08 03:00 PM

I don’t know that I deserve the game any more than the other good people that entered. All I know is that I would make GOOD use of the game. My wife often gets upset about the time I allocate to gaming. The one common ground we have in sports is the occasional game of tennis at a local court. Anyway Top Spin seems like it is going to be a fun game. It looks like a game we could BOTH enjoy. So by giving me a copy you could strengthen a marriage. A family that games together stays together!

# 56 rubisco43 @ 07/12/08 09:45 AM

Because I'm a pathetic loser and if I don't get this game, I'll KILL MYSELF. You want that on your conscience?

# 57 PhantomPain @ 07/12/08 09:59 AM

The reason I deserve to win is because I am about to have my 2nd child any day now, while my first is exactly 2 years old. What does that mean? My wife isn't working and won't be for a while and I just started a new career after finally getting out of the horrible mortgage business. Funds will be hard to come by for a while plus when my wife has me up in the middle of the night while she is breast feeding, I can at least play some tennis matched on the ps3.

# 58 CWood2 @ 07/12/08 11:20 AM

With the money saved by getting a free copy, I will buy the world a puppy and teach people to be nice(er).

# 59 Beantown @ 07/12/08 12:33 PM

Simply because I would like to play the game, but don't really have the money at the moment to spend on it being a broke college student. Figured the honest route would be better than the fake sympathy route.

# 60 Shaver @ 07/12/08 01:14 PM

I wrote nearly 200 reviews and feature pieces during nearly a decade on the Staff at Operation Sports. Never made a dime... never got paid for my games, my time or my effort. That's about it. Steve has my address to send my prize.

Toodles.
