With the economy the way it is, the likelihood that your folks are going to load you down with gifts this season is seeming slimmer by the day, right? Well, here’s your opportunity to show them! This month, take home three amazing prizes from a trilogy of brands we love. First up is Ubisoft’s brand-new Prince of Persia game (available on PS3, Xbox 350, PC, and DS), which not only won nine awards at the E3 conference this year, but has proven to be a hit even in our own "Loading…" column. You’ll also pick up a hot wallet from J.Fold’s new Reverb Collection, which is said to be inspired by industrial design, vintage sports cars, and limited-edition sneakers. And to top it all off, you’ll grab Hercules' new DJ Console RMX, a multi-function mixer and MIDI controller that received top marks in September’s Machines section.
