Guitar Hero and Pump It Up contests want you to shake your moneymaker
Two contests currently underway encourage gamers to strut, vogue, power chord, and basically rock their way to winnings.
1up is hosting The Ultimate Guitar Hero contest, with tons of great swag as prizes. You have until October 30th to record your entry, and submit it to GameVideos.com. Bad wigs and skinny ties optional. Entries will be judged on rockmanship, style, and sex appeal. We hope entrants don't take that third category too far.
Not to be outdone, Dance Dance Revolution clone Pump It Up: Exceed is hosting the first ever United States Pump It Up Festival, we kid you not. Fans of the arcade game, which also has PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions, can compete this Saturday in Charlotte, NC to try and win an all-expense paid trip to Korea. Not surprising, since the game features all the Korean pop music you might ever need in a lifetime. Winners also compete for a top worldwide prize of $146,000, which is a serious gamer payday.
