But there's every chance that your upcoming and unrelentingly magnificent entry could convince us to send you one of ten copies of Konami's Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles. All you need is a pumpkin, a relatively sharp knife and a burst of creativity that doesn't result in amusingly proportioned genitals. (That was a joke, but that's not often the case when knives and genitals mix!)
Check out the rules and get carving!

Our deepest apologies. Our technicians are looking into the problem. This will cease to be an issue once they invent some sort of technology that enables users to "scroll" through web pages.

You just don't get it man! We're ALL in the Mario Bros. universe! Just look at all our hats!

Not bad at all, although I believe that the Wario one took the lying cake.

well dracula x sucked anyway. I played a rom of it a few years ago and the only good part was the music
symphony of the night is cool though, but you can also get that on xbla now, for 10 bux

Well, I was really planning on doing this, but when I started I realized that carving pumpkins...is really fecking hard. Maybe it's because I haven't done it in like ten years...but I am an artist...and that didn't seem to help me at all.
I guess since I don't own a PSP anymore, (it was stolen about a year ago), there's no real reason to do it...but damn this competitive spirit of mine!
I was GOING to do a version of that Caturday picture that says "My Pokemans...Let me show you them", except replacing "Pokemans" with "Pumpkins". That was too much.
I'm guessing that 95% of the entries will just be the Halo 3 logo, so maybe I should give it another shot. It would give me more reason to pick up a new PSP outside of the GOW demo, (which will hopefully arrive here...eventually..).

For the joystiq pumpkin contest, do we have to have a "joystiq" label in the picture. My wife carved out 3 Bitchen VG pumpkins 2 halloweens ago (1 of Bowser, 1 of a Metroid, and 1 of the Moogle from the FF3 cover). Best pumpkins I'd ever seen, and I'm sure 1 (or all) would win.
So can I send you the picture and enter it?
