After revealing two highly anticipated titles, Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Microsoft has decided to offer another awesome thing: the official, original Xbox 360 chopper! Valued at $80,000, the one of a kind jewel can't be bought but instead, one lucky fellow will win it and become one of the proudest Xbox 360 fans ever.
The competition is open for everybody who purchases an Xbox 360 console - a "Scratch to win" card will be given to the buyer and, among other prizes, they are allowed to enter the draw for the grand prize.

Unfortunately for the rest of the world, the competition is only open for Australian citizens, but we surely hope Microsoft will do a similar thing in Europe and North America. The $80,000 chopper put up for grabs is a result of Microsoft's collaboration with Game and the draw that will make one person extremely happy will be held on the 31st of May.

However, even if you are not the luckiest Xbox 360 fan in the world, you will still get the chance to win one of the 5 Samsung LCD TVs, one of the 100 exclusive GAME/MTV/Microsoft party tickets (but you must be over 18 in order to attend) or one of the 1,000 hats, Live Kits. Also, 1,900 Game discount vouchers are up for grabs, together with 3,000 Survival Kits. And having in mind that only 10,000 game cards are distributed, there are some real chances you'll walk away with something! (For even more details about the competition and your chance to win the Xbox 360 Chopper, check this website).

Of course the Xbox 360 Chopper is the attraction of the day and we can only imagine the excitement one would get just by thinking of riding such a monster. Not to mention that it perfectly fits the Banjo-Kazooie gameplay... Oh, Microsoft! Please tell us this won't be a unique event and you'll give everybody in the world a chance to ride the Xbox 360 bike!
