Hello, how is everyone today? I hope you’re all okay. I just wanted to let you know that yesterday I spent a sizeable portion of the day struggling with the fact that I didn’t yet have my grubby little hands on a copy of Uncharted 3. I sat there, working at my computer, seething with rage that I wasn’t playing the latest in the Uncharted saga yet. It was threatening to consume my very being. So I nipped out and bought a copy. Problem solved.
But while I was planning my little excursion to buy the latest PlayStation 3 blockbuster, I spared a thought for all those of you who, for whatever reason, don’t yet have the game. So when I finally made it to the shop, I bought two. Now I’m going to give one away to one of you lucky little blighters. Because that’s how we roll here at TSA. Except Kris, he’s a right stingy old beggar *.
Let’s keep it nice and simple though, shall we? Why don’t you tell us about your most treasured possession in the comments below and at 17:00 GMT today, we’ll have a poke around the comments and pick the one we like best. The author of that comment will receive a copy of the game in the post just as soon as we can get their address from them and the postal service can find their house.
Our usual T&Cs apply, as ever, and our decision is final so no grumpy faces if you don’t win, okay? Oh, and have a read of our review, it took Alex about a month. And that’s just the sandy background.
* This is not actually true. Kris has, in the past, sent me cookies in the mail and given me awesome robot socks.
Update: Sorry folks, it took me ages to read through all of the entries! I’ve picked a winner now though, because of the sentiment and also the extra little attention to (peculiar) detail, hannes_truce is the winner of UC3. However, because I bought the games in Sainsbury’s, I also got two £25 PSN vouchers and stories from grimm and adamguest1985 resonated with me and with Uncharted 3 so I’ll send each of them a £25 code in their emails too.
Right, now bugger off and click some ads or something, I’m skint!

My most treadured possesion is my Sooty hand puppet. For 17 years, he has been in my bed, either as a memorandum or just something to hold in times of need. I know he will be one of those things that stays with me for the rest of my life, yet if the oppurtunity presents itself, I hope one of my children or grandchildren maybe will see it and come to love it as much as I have.

Ace. Harry has my old gummi bear. It took a lot for me to give it to him!

My most treasured possession? A replica bullet my sister bought me from her Battlefields trip with high school to France and Belgium. Always have it on me somewhere, in a pocket or something. Brings me good luck, and reminds me of her :)

My pet dog, Simba. He’s a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and is almost 13 years old, a few months ago we found out he has cancer and probably won’t see the end of this year. He really is the best dog you could ask for, he is truly a member of my family. I would quite like to get him stuffed when the end comes but I doubt I’ll be allowed to.
Since I’m an Aussie, and picked up my UC3 Special Edition this morning I don’t expect to be counted for the prize, I only posted because the question got me thinking about what’s important and I felt like sharing. Good competition.

My most treasured possession is a piece of Quartz Crystal I found in Magpie Mine when I was caving years ago.
I had it mounted and it hangs from my wallet, so it has gone everywhere with me for the last 31 years.

My phone. Connected to everyone, everything, at all times no matter where I am.
The infobahn accessible in a matter of seconds. Good or bad? It’s a possession to treasure either way.

I think my most treasured bit of kit is probably my dishwasher (or Magic Cupboard as its refered to in my house). sad but true, i would rather be without most things rather than wash a cup!

This might sound sappy but my life is my most treasured possessionou see before I was born my parents were already pregnant with another child. Unfortunately as was gimme then more so than now, my mum had a miscarriage. After that they decided not to try again for fear of going through those emotitions again. But they decided to try again just for the sake of it. So turns out I wouldnt be alive if it werent for that unfortunate incident. So I.dont take my life for granted since I learnt this. Sorry if this is sappy but tis my story of my most.treasured item.

My fridge, because cider isn’t meant to be drank warm, and if it wasn’t for the fridge i’d end up forking out loads on ice just to quench my first

My most treasured possession. Might be obvious but I would say my very first Playstation 1. It may be broken and I do intend in one day fixing it. But it was the very first games console I brought with my own money. I refuse to sell it or even throw it away
