      Count me in as gifting too, I already had it for Xbox1, took in some old games today to Gamestop and got Madden 16 for PS4 for $30. If I win (PS4 copy) please let me know where to send it to someone that can use it.

      Rafflecopter/we can't make people like us on Facebook for an entry, so that is why the entry is simply 'visit' us on Facebook.

      We could have been social media sticklers and left entries only to tweets, follows, etc. but personally speaking, I hate contests that do that so we didn't do it here. Of course we'd like to grow those accounts, but I'd also rather not exclude (or anger) long-time members who may not have or like social media.

      No, I did it because he is Canadian and a chunk of his money goes to national defense. Canadian National Defense? When is the last time anyone attacked Canada? Who needs to defend a large pile of snow? Almost as wasteful as the French buying first place trophies in bulk for their military.

      EVERY time someone makes this joke - i try to find a video clip of that Saved By The Bell Episode where Zack stands in for Slater's interview with the Army and gets on Belding's desk while suggesting we should attack Canada.

      I had a different joke come to mind when reading that.

      Why are the streets of Paris lined with trees?

      If you've played Fallout 3, you know that eventually we just annex Canada...

      Technically we only annexed Canada for their resources and proximity to Alaska, to take it back from the Chinese. Alaska that is, even the Chinese wanted nothing to do with Canada, Too snory, way too snory. Soooo snory.

      USA USA USA!
