Happy New Year from Bitmob (and Raskulls/DC Universe Online beta code giveaway)

We've heard Duke Nukem and Lara Croft's New Year's gaming resolutions, and you'll hear some of ours on this Monday's Mobcast, but what about you? Don't you have some arbitrary, gaming-related promise to make to the world?

As some extra incentive, we've got four codes for XBLA game Raskulls and 10 codes for the DC Universe Online beta (five for PC, five for PlayStation 3) to give away -- add your resolution to the comments below and note which game or games you're hoping to win in parenthesis. We'll pick winners at random on January 3.

And now we're taking the rest of the day and tomorrow off, too -- your regularly-scheduled updates resume on Sunday. Happy New Year!

UPDATE: Congrats to code winners David Corapi, Toby Davis, Chris Winters, Tim Latshaw, Sam F, Rakim Reid, Marko Cotra, Dale Fassoth, Evan Campbell, and Rachel Jagielski!

My New Years Resolution is to kick my WoW addiction (hopefully this game can do that) and also to improve my skills at Dota :D. I would like a PC version code for DC Universe Online beta. Thank You!

I resolve to finally beat Okami. That game is too good to leave in my backlog. (When I'm not working on that, however, it may be nice to be playing Raskulls.)

Happy New Year everyone! My New Years Resolution? Getting my life in order with my writing. Stuff gets to congested at times. (And as a way to relax I could be playing Raskulls).

I really want to finish Final Fantasy XIII, so I'll resolve to do that.  I love the Final Fantasy series, but I kinda hate FF13.  Still, I feel obligated to finish the stupid thing.  (Maybe Raskulls would wash the taste of FF13 out of my mind.)

Beat FFXIII. Rented it and had to take it back before I was done.

I'd also like to replace my aging Xbox 360 with a new one. Not sure how many more MacGyver fixes this thing can take.

(Raskulls or bust. DC Universe Online isn't going to do it for me.)

I resolve to clear my backlog. Seriously, it's way too big. I'm either going to clear it by actually beating the games, or just plain abandoning them. I'm sick of seeing a pile of games I actually want to play, and not playing them. That changes this year. :D

And if I win... Raskulls for me. EVE Online is all the MMO action I need right now so I doubt I'd use DC Universe Online.

My Resolution is to get through my troubled times with the least amount of pain ...

My New Year resolution requires me to get better at FPS and to make a dent at my games backlog. I hope. Raskulls please. Happy New Year and thanks. :)

With so many sequels to PS3 games coming out this year, I finally bought a PS3.  I resolve to catch up with some of the console's library, and complete all the PS3 exclusives that I have any interest in (I've got a list of about 15 games, including PSN titles). 

I should note that I did honor my resolution for 2010, which was to finally play a Final Fantasy game (beat FFX; liked it!).

I resolve to complete every game I buy or rent this year. I got too many games I was only mildly interested in 2010 and did not even finish them..  (DC Universe Online Beta PS3)

My resolution is to end 2011 with a smaller backlog than I started with. Gonna be a tough one,lol. (Raskulls please)

I know one thing I want to do better this year is time management. I spend so much time doing schoolwork and sitting on the computer reading news about stuff (including games) that I don't actually sit down and entertain myself with some games as often as I would like.

Coincidentally I've been watching Raskulls since it was announced (over a year and a half ago), and I've been anticipating being able to play it. I love Mr Driller and it reminds me of that. I'd like a (Raskulls) code because with my finances even $10 is hard to part with.

My resolution for 2011 is to drop twenty pounds using fitness games as my only source of strenous exercise. As long as I'm earning achievements while doing my crunches this shouldn't be too bad.

My gaming New Year's resolution is to actually play more games.  I barely beat a fourth of the gamesI bought, and with my previous backlog of games, it's really not looking pretty.  I have to eiher buy less or play more (or both)!

(Raskulls sure seems like a fun way to start beating down the backlog, even if it'll add to it too.  ;D)

Happy New Year! My New Year's resolution is to pass my boards and find a job shortly after!

I am already speedily chowing down my backlog soooo...

My resolution is to post 20 articles on Bitmob this year. Why 20? Well, I have only posted 19 since 2009! My other resolution is to improve my grammar so my Bitmob articles are easier for the staff to edit!

My other-other resolution is to find an intership or job related to game production this year! I am pumped. Happy New Year!

EDIT: I forgot my other-other-other resolution is to finally sit down and start learning how to program. An entry level coding book is on it's way to my apt at this very moment!

If all goes well this should be a pretty busy year.

I resolve to finally set some time aside to play at least one of the many RPGs piling up in my backlog. 

(I'd like to win Raskulls, please.)

This year I will finally make a dent in my backlog. With all of the great games coming out this year, I have no choice if I even plan to play everything I own.

(DC Universe PS3 please)

I'm determined not to let my recent decision to jump into WoW again (after four years off) take over my entire gaming schedule. My backlog will fossilize if I'm not careful.

I'm also keen to find more suitable 'treadmill games' that don't cause me to trip up while speed-walking! Anything with a 3D camera is a treadmill no-no, so it would have to be (Raskulls) please...

My resolution is to finally beat Final Fantasy VIII in the new year. I have plenty of time, so I'll see how far I get.

Actually, my resolution is to beat any Playstation 1 Final Fantasy game. I always like these games. I just never finish them. I feel like I should finish them soon.

My New Year's Resolution is to catch up on all the games I missed from the last two years. Darksiders, FFXIII, Hot Pursuit, DQIX, and Red Dead all need to be finished. Also, on the non-gaming side, to try and take opportunities wherever I can find them.

(Raskulls looks cool and I'm not big on MMOs.)
