Ever one to seize a seasonal opportunity, EA is giving away a couple of Dead Space 3 download codes to celebrate Valentine's Day - that holiest of days, when couples renew their affection for one another by blasting hideous outer space monsters square in the joints with obscenely dangerous engineering implements. Or, if you're the less demonstrative type, by scavenging for weapon components together. It's a metaphor, silly. Those weapon components stand for LOVE.
Fancy being a part of it? Simply leave a comment telling us what you'd expect to read on a Dead Space 3 Valentine's Day card - EA has helpfully supplied a couple of examples. We'll choose a winner at 5pm today.
Packs covered by the offer include the below:
Tau Volantis Survival Kit (bundle of Marauder, Sharpshooter, Tundra, and Bot Accelerator)
Marauder suit pack
Sharpshooter suit pack
Tundra suit pack
Bot Accelerator
Bot Capacity
Bot Personality
Update: The winners have been chosen and contacted. Thanks all for participating.

Good luck to everyone who enters!

Dearest Isaac,
You've heard of course that roses are red,
and obviously no doubt that violets are blue?
You may ask of course what's this to you?
It's valentines of course so here's what you must do...
Run back to that door where death us did near,
And take on those Necros, forgetting all fear!
What's that? Don't cry, i know it's too small,
a gun that little, it'll be no use at all...
but wait my dear, no matter, rejoice,
I hear a new rifle's available - only 1200 points!
All my love, Frank xxx

Valentines day is a little bit gay but I wrote this for you just to say,
without being pushy, I'll avoid being mushy, there's a game we could play by EA.
Nothing could be more romantic, I'm not being pedantic, whip out your plasma cutter see.
I'll make a nice cup of tea, but try not to wee when we're playing some Dead Space 3.
It gets pretty gory and there's even a story to keep us entertained all day.
Just trust in your man, you'll become a fan, Dead Space 3 is the valentines way.

To my love Nicole..
You appear in my head the weakest part,
I'm plasma cutting my way to your heart,
I lost you on the Ishimura,
Want you to know that I still adore ya,
To make us whole and interlace,
I'll converge with you and create dead space...
Yours and pressing x rapidly always,
Isaac.

The blood stained floors are red,
Kinetic Locks are blue,
Whatever lies beyond the door,
It only wants you...
Love Issac xx

Roses are red,
Blood is red,
Necromorphs are dead,
Eat my buzz saw.
Issac.

Roses are red my line gun to open your legs and let me use my electrified ripper blade on you.
FishyGinger on 14 Feb '13 said:
I hope you're all ashamed of yourselves, especially the ones that can't spell Isaac.
Except Sid, that was pretty good.
