... party package for five from Red Box! What, you think we can afford to give out a shiny new Nintendo Wii? Of course not. But seriously, an evening spent at Red Box playing the Wii with four of your friends is almost as good as owning a Wii, except for the part where you have to wake up the next morning Wii-less and feeling empty inside.

We'll get to the contest mechanics soon, but first, let me tell you how much I love the Wii. I've only tried it out a few times (at the Red Box Wii Night and at Philos's brother's "bachelor party"--in quotes because a bachelor party without a stripper isn't a real bachelor party), but I already love it to bits. It's the most innovative gaming console ever, and the Wiimote makes everything feels more fun. Plus I kick ass at Wii Tennis. Well, maybe not, but at least I kicked Philos's ass.

Red Box has been around for quite a while as a karaoke place, which means that I never gave much of a crap about it. But now, the Wii is available in their rooms for just an additional 99 pesos per head. Now I'm considering throwing a Wii party at Red Box for my next birthday.

You can throw your own Wii party too if you win our contest (sponsored by Red Box and GeiserMaclang). All you have to do is leave a comment telling us which Wii game character you are and why before November 15, 2008. Be sure to include your real email address with your comment so that we can contact you later. The funniest commenter wins a Wii party package for five people.

This contest is open to anyone who has four friends and can get to Red Box (branches in Greenbelt and Trinoma). Just like our last contest, members of the Chicken Mafia blog team along with their family members and girlfriends and pets can't win... sorry, Chewie (that's Lizzy's new puppy).
