Ever wanted to own a mountain of PlayStation goods? Oh, you already do. Well, for those of you who aren't lucky enough to have acquired multiple limited edition PlayStation 4 consoles, dozens of games, memorabilia, and accessories, Sony has got a pretty great competition for you. Dubbed the Fully Loaded Turbo Charged contest, those of you in Europe will be competing for over £10,000 worth of gaming items.
All you need to do to enter is click through here and answer a few easy-peasy questions. It's pretty straightforward stuff, so you shouldn't have too much trouble getting the answers correct. From there, you'll need to add in a few personal details and cross your fingers. If you want to know what it feels like to win big, the video below shows a truck (!!!) delivering all of the items to last year's victor. Remember, you've got to be in it to win it.

I entered, and if I win I'm going to Alder Hey with half of it.
@Johnnycide You're a good person.
The questions are easy until you get to the tiebreaker:
"How many screenshots have been captured and shared globally on PS4 by players up to and including 23:59 BST, 9 August 2015?"
I mean, are we talking hundreds of thousands, millions, billions? I have no idea. That's the only question that matters, too, since just about everyone is going to get the standard questions correct.
Edit
And I guess they mean shared through Facebook and Twitter through the Share button as opposed to screenshots that have been posted on all other websites by people just copying them across to their PC? Argh, damn you incredibly difficult to guess question.
@Matroska Yup, it's like a "guess how many sweets are in a jar" question. There are some stats out there, though... Just sayin'.
I want all of those things!
@Matroska Yeah out of interest what did people give as the answer to that?
I had a punt at 2 billion! lol
No contest like this in the States? That sucks
im in canada, does that mean im out of luck?
Definitely going to attempt to research the tie breaker before submitting my entry!
I hate tie-breakers like this, I'd much rather they just ran with the good old-fashioned simple questions followed by pulling a name out of a hat as a decider.
EDIT: I just read through the prize list & the T&Cs. You need to have it all delivered to the address you register with if you win - I'd be stuffed as all that lot physically wouldn't fit in my little 1 bed flat!
It's kind of too much as dumb as that sounds, I'd most likely give my brother and cousin a fair share of it give a system to the youth club I went to and Guy's as they get a lot of kids all the time and I can remember visits being a bit easier being able to play some games especially long visits were I'd be there for a week +.
Wow, CEX would have a field day if I won.
Oh and I shared a pic last week. So whatever your number was going to be make sure you include that one.
@RawShark CEX? You're mad! It's all brand new in original packaging, meaning you can get rid of most of that on ebay for basically full price!
Even tough i live in South Africa i'm still going to enter my uncle can send it over if i win
It seems this competition is exclusive to Europe, so I can't enter. But even if I could I wouldn't have room for all that gear! I live in a small apartment where my most of my stuff is still in boxes. This would be overkill, going to the bathroom hoping I don't trip on five PS4s and a fightstick.
@Dodoo I put 100 million. There's about 24 million PS4s out there, so I averaged it at about 4-5 pic shares per PS4. Probably lowballed it, but I think there's loads of people that have never touched the share button. Who knows, eh?
Good luck to all of the push square crew from Europe! I'm in the states so I'm ineligible, but that would be sweet if one of you guys win!
@DrClayman Yeah I like your logical thinking. No doubt you're a lot closer than me.
I literally just plucked a figure from thin air and went with it!
It would help if there was a more clear definition of the question. I mean, I have quite a few photos on my HD from snapping them with the Share button, but as far as I'm aware I've never broadcast those snaps anywhere beyond my console. Does that count? Or is it only stuff that's been put out for the public to see?
There are stats out there re number of share button presses, but these are from a year ago, and even at that time don't give any idea of the split between photos and videos, and how many actually made their way online. Oh well, looks like I'll be winging it with a semi-educated guess!
I live in Canada so I can't enter but best of luck to those who did.
