You would enter to win gift cards, and maybe video games.
Gift cards around $20 would be .20 BTC to enter
A $60 video game would be 1 BTC
What do you guys think?

I wouldn't.

Maybe if the $60 was 0.10BTC I would consider it.. or if it was 1BTC and 99% of the money went to charity or something like that.

Raffle games are close to fraud anyways in my opinion... just do an auction.

https://www.coinlend.org <-- automated lending at various exchanges.
https://www.bitfinex.com <-- Trade BTC for other currencies and vice versa.

I wouldn't call them fraudulent, just financially unsound. I agree nonetheless, if you want to sell the items, an auction would be a better way, and likely make more money. Raffles are profitable for items not purchasable on the open market. I doubt you'd have much interest in low-denomination gift cards.
