The code hunt will have contestants 18 and older in the USA and Canada scouring assigned locations across the web and inside the top 500 Best Buy stores in the country for elusive game codes, each of which gets them closer and closer to the grand prize! The contest began May 5th and will end just in time for the Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker release on June 2nd.
Contestants, working either alone or in groups of up to five, will be able to find the codes in a number of different locations across the web and in the real world. Once the codes are found, the contestants will need to enter their codes on the Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker contest micro-site, where their tallies will be logged. At the end of the contest, the team that has logged the most codes will win $10,000.
For those who are searching for the codes online, they can be found weekly or bi-weekly at a variety of different websites including the main contest mini-site, the sponsors’ various websites and social networking sites (including their Facebook and Twitter pages), Sony’s PlayStation blog, Konami’s YouTube Channel, the PlayStation Network site and more. Outside of the web, Best Buy will feature the codes in designated areas inside its top 500 stores in the US and along with circulars and Gaming Insider pamphlets. To obtain daily clues where the codes can be found, players can download a Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker widget to their desktop. This widget will also provide players with a newsfeed and exclusive content, preparing them for the big release of the game!
