Dell Alienware is proud to announce the winners of its cosplay competition, which was held at Africa's leading three-day technology and gaming exhibition for professional and leisure gamers, rAge, at the Coca-Cola Dome, from 4 to 6 October 2013.
Alienware once again partnered with Telkom and EA at rAge and hosted an Alienware-themed cosplay competition. Attendees at rAge were encouraged to attend in "Alienwear" or an alien-themed cosplay. A photobooth was set up at the Telkom stand where cosplayers had their pictures taken, which were then uploaded to the Do Gaming Facebook page. The top three participants with the most likes stood a chance to win some amazing prizes, all sponsored by Alienware, Telkom and EA.
The results have been finalised, and Dell Alienware is proud to announce the winners. The overall winner of the competition is Jean Drew, who wore a Rubick costume, and received 2 235 likes. Drew walks away with the grand prize of an Alienware Aurora unit valued at R35 000, Battlefield 4 from EA and a 100GB Telkom data bundle. The second prize goes to Maxine Puren, who came in at 2 112 likes spotting an Avatar look. She walks away with a TACTX gaming headset, an Alienware enhanced gaming keyboard, Battlefield 4 from EA and a 50GB Telkom data bundle. The third and final prize of a TACTX gaming headset, Battlefield 4 from EA and a 30GB Telkom data bundle goes to Gabriella Jardine, with 1 029 likes, also in an Avatar-style face art and cowgirl garb. Alienware would like to congratulate all the winners and salutes all the participants of the competition.
