Your Turn: July winner

It's been an absolute pleasure to judge Your Turn entries over the years.

Your Turn has provided a prominent platform for Australian gamers to share their thoughts on the direction of the industry and influence local decision-makers.

It's also kick-started the careers of promising new talents, including of course James Dominguez.

And it's always fun to give away great prizes like shiny new consoles thanks to the generous folks at Sony Computer Entertainment, who have supported the initiative since it began back in March 2008.

My final PlayStation 3 prize goes to Ash Walmsley, whose personal piece about Christian games was thought-provoking and stimulated a great deal of interesting discussion.

Other great Your Turn blogs published in July included an entertaining account of how modern games have become so much easier by Chris "Dr Charlesworth" Charles, and the interesting perspective of a female gamer from Hannah Killalea.

Meanwhile, Corey Lee provided a comprehensive look at the components of collector's edition games and Leigh Martin contributed a striking account of survival in the dangerous world of DayZ.

Congratulations to Ash and all of our Your Turn contributors this month.

Next month your entries will be judged by James Dominguez. Please send your blogs to SPYourTurn@gmail.com to be in the running for another great prize.
