The AusGamers Survey that was run over the last month or so has wrapped up, and we'd like to thank everyone for participating. The feedback you provided has already proven extremely useful and we're looking to make a number of changes based on the survey and competition results.

We got a bunch of really excellent suggestions for the competition and it was hard to pick the favourites. There were a lot of great ideas along the same lines, and choosing the absolute winners was a tough call.

Big congratulations go to our three winners - BassMan and shrapse scored a Nintendo DS for their entry and merlin hooks up the Xbox 360 system. The winning entries are up on the winners page.

We have actually already started work on some of the ideas that came through and we're pretty stoked about making them happen - so keep an eye out.

Oh yeh, all your details have now been sold to spammers. Bwahahaah!

Couple of other things:

1) Great to see active community members winning the big prizes. For those wondering, our judging process does not show the names alongside the entries - so there's no way for us to know who has won until we actually look up the winning entries. So it was great to see two regulars come out on top.

2) These prizes were funded directly from the ad moneyz that we get paid. We're planning to give away a lot more stuff in coming months, so please come back regularly and often and take note of the advertisers, because they're funding the stuff we're giving away.

Brendan's entry is already a reality, except it's not exactly a database.

Ecogamer and http://palgn.com.au/ both have sections on game prices etc.

Lucky him for winning!

"If you were inventing a feature for a gaming website, what would it be?"

An account feature that remembers all the games that you have, and the types of games you like, so that it can keep track of patches/mods/etc for my existing games and also recommend other and upcoming games based on my preferences.
IMO, this is not an invention of a feature, it exists on many other websites.

Tip for next time: be clearer with the competition question, eg. "What great website features should ausgamers integrate?"

I can't believe my suggestion of merging a porn site with a gaming site didn't win. It has easily got to be the greatest idea since forever.

I'm pretty sure he just said the exact opposite.

Grats to the winners and thanks to everyone who participated. We'll be working hard at a lot of things over the coming months so it's great to see so much interest.

Did the "update the forum code" bandwagon get much of a showing?

I should've gone with my original idea of "inventing a large wad of cash to lure Yahtzee/Zero Punctuation to Ausgamers"!

Grats to the winners though!
