Contest Allows Kids to Design Activity for Future BookGRAPEVINE, Texas, Jul 04, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME), the world's largest video game and entertainment software retailer, has created an all new large-format activity book specifically designed for kids. The book, which is free with the purchase of any new E-rated video game, is now available while supplies last at all U.S. GameStop locations.

The activity book features coloring pages, word puzzles, learn to draw pages, mazes and more -- all of which were created in partnership with leading video game producers and publishers. Electronic Arts, Activision, Nintendo, Midway, Sega, Ubisoft, Microsoft and others helped GameStop craft this 2nd edition of the activity book.

One of the most popular features of the book is the activity contest, and this issue features the biggest grand prize to date. Contest entrants are asked to come up with a cool and unique activity for the next issue of the activity book based on their favorite E-rated game. A detailed description of the activity is required for entry, and drawings to help further explain the activity are encouraged.

The winner of the activity contest will receive a $500 GameStop gift card and have his/her activity featured in the book coming out this winter. Four runner-ups will each get $100 gift cards. All entries must be postmarked on or before Sept. 12, 2008. For complete rules, visit www.gamestop.com/playground/contest.
