Our GTA IV Xbox 360 Caption Contest Got Hacked

May 21, 2008

gta-iv-unit-231x300 Our GTA IV Xbox 360 Caption Contest Got HackedWe’ve got some bad news. Our poll to decide the funniest caption for the Xbox 360 contest has been hacked. Turns out some of those out there in the Interwebs have attempted to fix the vote by pointing bots at our poll. We appreciate the irony that people out there tried to use shady means to win a Grand Theft Auto-branded prize and the opportunity to use phrases like “pointing bots at our poll.” But we can’t let cheaters walk away with any prize.

Voting clearly isn’t going to work so we have to go despot-style and pick the winning caption ourselves. Since all the possible captions were affected by numerous bots we have to DQ all five caption entries. We’ll leave the contest open for submissions until May 28th and then pick the winner. You can caption the GTA IV screenshot posted after the jump or on the original contest post. We’ll pool all the captions from both posts and make a final selection in one week. You also need to register to be eligible to win.

Caption the above screenshot in the comments below or in the comments section of the original contest post. Don’t forget to register.

The disqualified captions are:

“Well what do you know, there wasn’t enough air in there to last an hour. I guess I owe you a dollar.”
“Ok, go ahead and let Hillary out before she turns us all into newts.”
“Oh boy…now THAT’S a stain….”
“Those acts of God really stick it in and break it off, figuratively speaking. What happened to his pants?”
“Oh dear God, someone stole the hooker. This city really is going to hell in a hand basket.”

UPDATE: The caption contest is closed for business. We will announce the winner shortly.

  10. “What!? When you left there was one body in the trunk. Why are there two now?”
    “He seemed lonely.”

    “Dammit Niko I said get Randolf not Rudolph!”

    “What does it mean when a bomb starts flashing red and making a loud screech?”
    “It means it’s time to go.”

    “Niko, in America when someone asks you to “pinp their ride” it doesn’t mean you stick a pimp in the trunk, although I see how it could come in handy.

  11. If you think beating up Hillary like this is bad, you should have seen what we did to McCain, lets just say he’s not going to be running for president anymore…

  13. Whoa… so this is what happened to those guys that try to rig that last Das Gamer contest.

    By NegativeGhostrider on May 26, 2008

  14. Damn! Now this makes sense why the cops were chasing us across three state lines for the car we stole. The trunk is full of Krispy Kreme doughnuts!

    By NegativeGhostrider on May 26, 2008

  15. This is NOT what I meant when I said I liked the junk in her trunk!

    By budstud on May 26, 2008

  17. Damn spelling errors and no edit button… here’s the quote I meant to write”

  18. “Niko… when I said ‘get me some hoes’ I wasn’t talking about the gardening tools…”

  19. Look, it’s your first day in America. I get that. There’s lots to do, and you want to do ‘em all. But I think your eyes were bigger than your stomach here. Either way, we’re gonna need a crowbar.

    Niko: The crowbar is under the redhead. No, no the other redhead.

  20. This is why I love America. In the home country, a red light special just meant 50% off a crockpot.

    By fortunz on May 27, 2008

  21. Oh please, on 5th we saw a girl do that with a 100watt incandescent.

    By fortunz on May 27, 2008

  22. This is why we can’t have nice things.

    By fortunz on May 27, 2008

  23. This is where that Hefty Ultra Flex product placement deal would have come in handy.

    By fortunz on May 27, 2008

  24. Ok, Niko… I know you’re new to the country and all, but when I tell you that I want you to bring me a girl with a lot of “junk in the trunk” I don’t mean the situation we’ve got here.
