We ended up with 4 extra codes for Armored Core 3 Portable for the PSP and in the spirit of giving, 4 lucky people will end up with those codes. We will give away 1 code per day starting this afternoon. 2 codes will go to randomly selected readers who post in this comments thread. The other 2 codes will go to readers who retweet our post about this contest so make sure you are following @SnackbarGames!
