Alright folks, we closed the compo a little under two hours ago, let's do some winners! Not up to speed with the hip happenings? We asked members to come up with a question to pose to Al Alcorn, the creator of PONG , as part of our GAME ON coverage. Winners receive a pass to the exhibition!

Let's start with MyPSP!
That wasn't hard to decide as only one person entered!
Pongo:
Do you ever wonder what would of happened if pong was never invented and how would of it affected todays gaming?

Next up, MyPS3
Lil_Fil06:
Explain the feelings you had about gaming in general at the time of PONG and what you felt about the future.

Hammy360:
How about making PONG HD?

Moving right along, MyDS:
Eldude:
When you dropped the first PONG machine off at Andy Capp’s Tavern did you stop for a drink as well?

Silence:
Is it true that PONG had to be halted for a few years so that technology could catch up and play it with its full graphic and physics settings?

Heading back towards consoles, MyWii!
Desi:
When the first PONG machine broke down because it was literally overflowing with coins, what was your immediate reaction?

MB0742:
Who would win, one of your paddles or Andy roddick and Federer playing doubles?

And finally, My360!
xLAMBIEx:
What did you expect to happen after you launched the game PONG?

Shiversul:
Does the new advanced gaming industry interest you more now than when you invented PONG?

And very lastly, due to being down one entry on MyPSP, we've given the spare pass to another entry that gave us a laugh, that being...

Wet_Dog:
Great game and all that, but where's the downloadable content?

So there you go folks! Congratulations everyone! Winners will be contacted in the next 24 hours.

Finally there's the matter of who's question is gonna be asked to Al Alcorn.....

....and you're going to have to wait and watch MyMedia's GAME ON coverage to find out

Thanks. It appears that a little bit of research goes a long way.
I was going to this anyway but now I can afford an extra choctop as I don't have to pay for admission.
