Times are hard and I think every one of us is at the very least aware of the economic crisis the world is currently going through, so to see what has been happening over at the local PS3 forums really is quite special.
A forumite by the name of M21 has started a quite unique craze at the moment of giving away PS3 games for free. You read that right, he isn’t looking for money or repayment of any kind and is literally just giving them away.Â
First up a copy of Uncharted Drakes Fortune was raffled off with the first 20 people who hand’t played the game given the chance to choose a number between 1 and 20. A random numer was then drawn and Posttoastie was the lucky recipient of the first free game give away.
Next up TobySelf setup a raffle to give away a copy of Motorstorm and now Lemon is giving away a copy of Genji or Warhawk.
The only rule seems to be that once you have finished the game you cannot sell it and should rather raffle it back into the community.Â
I would just like to say that you guys are awesome and I hope that Karma repays you all in kind.

Just kidding guys. I am a bit chuffed that my actions has sparked this kind of repsonse.
Sometimes we all just have to do something nice for someone else.

Unfortunately there will always be some guy who screws someone else over. While we cannot prevent it, they’re the ones who have to bear the consequences sooner or later.
