Word of mouth is a powerful advertising tool, and most companies realize this. Quite a few are even willing to hand over some freebies or other incentives in exchange for a good word from their current customers.
Giveaway Gamer, a site dedicated to…well, giveaways, is the latest site to jump on this bandwagon, and the carrot on the stick is a year of free Age of Conan playtime. All they ask is that you spread the word about their contest in whatever way you choose: Twitter, Facebook, interpretive dance, mention it on your blog or podcast; it’s entirely up to you. Send Giveaway Gamer an email telling how you passed the word along — links, screenshots, photos, and videos are even better — and you’re entered in the contest.
The contest runs through December 18th, and the winner will receive a year of free AoC playtime and pile of in-game goodies as well, such as the mammoth, rhino and horse mounts. All of the entry information can be found here at the Giveaway Gamer site. While this doesn’t count as an entry for Massively, we wish you guys the best of luck!

Cryptic has revealed the free costume pieces in next week’s Nemesis Confrontation update, which come in addition to two unlockable costume sets. Among the new free costume items are some exceptionally sweet capes, although we’re sure many players will be filled with glee to see new weapons being added to the costume creator.
While these are only cosmetic costume options, they’re important to players who wield specific guns or swords. It may seem like a minor issue to some, but having an outfit that makes sense — and looks cool at the same time — is surprisingly important to players who revel in a game like Champions Online.
You can also now put guitars on the back of your characters; something that immediately reeks of potential. We have to wonder if guitars are going to be added as visual replacements for sword based powers, enabling us to whack enemies with our musical axes. If someone at Cryptic could make that so, it would be somewhere within the vicinity of pure awesome.

Yesterday, Major Nelson announced that with all the latest features added to the 360, they want to give all silver members a free trail for 3 days. That’s right, from November 20th – November 23rd anyone who hasn’t paid for a gold membership can experience it for free.
In honor of the free weekend of Xbox live, I have decided that I will broadcast this Sunday for a few hours. You can watch us right from the broadcast page on the site! We will start around 5pm EST. Of course we will be play games on Xbox live.

We know you guys have the memory of a … well, whatever the polar opposite of an elephant is in regards to memory. (A fruit fly?) So, we thought we’d remind you that Cryptic’s made its superheroic MMO Champions Online free to play this Halloween weekend in an attempt to promote the game’s spooky pseudo-expansion, Blood Moon.
You can download it for free at 1PM EST today, then play it to your heart’s content — or November 2. You know, whichever comes first.

With The Ballad of Gay Tony set to release this week, Xbox live is there to help celebrate the event. On top of many things like, “Game with the Devs” and the “GTA All Nighter” this weekend, Xbox Live will be free for all non-gold members who play GTA IV, The Lost and Damned, and The Ballad of Gay Tony. That sounds pretty sweet to me. The Ballad of Gay Tony is set to release tomorrow, October 29th. Hope to see most of you on GTA this weekend for some base jumping and APC action!

NOTE: The Source had no source…this MIGHT not be true. I could not find anything on Major Nelson’s, or Rockstar’s sites, or Xbox.com about this (yet).
