Graffiti Competition Winners!

[gaz]

Hello Campers!

Man first of all an apology. This has taken a WHILE.

When we originally kicked off this graffiti competition we thought it'd be a bit of FUN LARK to help keep away some of that winter boredom. How naive were we! We've had a lot of gip and hassle both whittling down the HUGE DELUGE of excellent entries to the winning 42 and also a shedload of administrative mundanity crossing all of the legal Ts and dotting the bureaucratic Is making sure it's all legal to use your fabulous work.

And that is -mostly- why it's taken so long until this point right here, right now where we can announce the winners

From the more than 500 submissions received we've narrowed it down to 42 images from 30 artists that really grabbed us as being great for the game. We think they're great though everyone who entered should be proud as just about all of you managed to raise a smile or wow from the team here at Ruffian

Our fearless art team are working right now to include the winning entries into the game. Most will appear as part of a number of graffiti montages , they'll still be individually recognisable but will along side some of the other competition winners. A few select pics will appear singularly in Pacific City. We'll post some screens as soon as we can

All artists will appear in the game credits and I'm also happy to announce that each of you will receive a copy of Crackdown 2 when we release sometime this year.

Phew! It's been a great ride and something we will definitely do again in future products. Thank you very much for the excellent response

It doesn't surprise me that my word didn't made it. There are clearly some real good artist who send there pieces in and they are all great. Congratulations to everyone who got in!

[Marcus]

Thanks for posting the winners

These are all brilliant! Some of them are just...wow. I'm not surprised you all had a hard time choosing the winners.

Glad to see my Czernenko face among the ranks

Congrats to everyone who got in, can't wait to see them all in-game

Oreic you made it!

[Oreic]

HOLY SHIT how the hell did I make it when the other winners look insane!

I only just noticed that, I just skimmed through the text to see the winning entries the first time.

That's fantastic! As if having our art in the game and name in the credits wasn't enough!
Your generosity is much appreciated. Thanks very much, Ruffians.

And about the free copy this is very welcome as money is VERY tight at my House ATM and for a bit I wasnt gonna be able to get Crackdown 2 unless it came out in a long while. Thank you very Much in advance. Also I cant help but notice that they editted my Fraeakone, not complaing just mentioning it.

.....craig patton?
wtf...

[Oreic]

LOL I think the agent on agent is funny. Also I did some very basic math and if Ruffian were to be buying all these free copies at MSRP then it would come to a total of 1800 USD. Also I was wondering how we will get our copy will it be shipped or will we get a voucher for a local game store or something else?
