Codemasters’ funky new Overlord II, out this Friday, is all about controlling your little minions and getting them to do your dirty work. As we all know, in real life most of us are minions, with a big fat man telling us what to do, so we thought it only fair to offer three lucky TSA readers the chance to own their own little minion.

To win, you’ll need to harness the power of Twitter. Once you’ve signed up for an account (if you didn’t have one already), ensure you’re following us (this bit is crucial) and then you have to tweet this line: “@thesixthaxis – You’re just a big fat man, give me my Overlord II minion!” and we’ll pick out three random matching tweets that have landed in our inbox at midnight (BST) tonight. Easy peasy.  So…

1. Sign up for Twitter.
2. Add thesixthaxis to your Follow List.
3. Tweet “@thesixthaxis – You’re just a big fat man, give me my Overlord II minion!”

Winners must live in the UK and not be a real overlord. Winners will be picked at random, and we’ll follow the winners back so we can send you a Direct Message asking for your address – if you’re new to Twitter it might be worth checking it out so you know what you’re doing. Only one tweet per person. Prizes selected at random, and might not be the same models as they are in the photo.

Good luck everyone!

    Killing Baby Seals = Mega LOLs ;)


  4. Shall tweet shortly :-)


    • as soon as i find smoewhere to steal the internet.


      • damnit. why are everyones routers locked? i’ll tweet when i’m home then.


  5. Oh sure, give the minions away. But then before you know it, they’ll be claiming minimum wage, dental plans and holiday pay.

    Minion Unions these days are relentless!!


  6. Nice competition, I’m likeing the new background as well. Nice use of twitter to.


  7. I’d do it, but i dont have twitter lol


    • Sign up then.


    • i dont have twitter either, i see it as rather a useless toll to have and would rather be an old fashioned git than give in to popular demand.


  8. One of those would look cool on my monitor at work ;)


  9. I entered :)


  10. Haha, I got a whole bunch of those figurines with my promo copy of Overlord too so I’ll pass on this. My desk in work is getting rather cluttered with various figurines actually, so many of my review copies come with this sort of stuff thrown in these days. I remember when I used to get hardware included instead :(


    • Overlord too or Overlord two? :P


      • He isn’t saying Overlord 2, re-read the sentence..


  11. Whoo overlord comp just like on threespeech did when the last game was released


  12. Done.. they look pretty cool those minions – one sat next to me here would help me through the day :)


  13. Damn those look cool…can I enter? :-P


  14. just wanted to ask if there will be any competitions where you can enter as a non UK citizen?
    and why is it at all that all competitions are UK only? because the shipping would be more expensive? or simply to limit entrys?


    • The shipping costs would be too expensive. There are comps in which you can win a PSN game, they are of course open to those outside the UK.


      • and how about non UKs declaring they would pay the shipping costs if they won? because there are often competitions for stuff you cant even buy regularly and i would be more than willing to pay for the shipping myself…


  15. how do you tweet?


    • how do you tweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet


      • Read the article pal. The words with the lines under them are linkies.
