*THIS COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED*
So we all know that the announcement trailer for Dead Island was pretty damn good, epic even. While the actual release might not exactly be tear jerkingly profound, the game has brilliantly sinister characters who are let loose in an open world environment where terror reigns.
You’ll have to fend for yourselves against hordes of a variety of undead from the obligatory zombie bikini babes and surfer dudes to The Butcher, with its sharp elbows; The Drowner, with its floods of body fluids; The Thug, hardened criminals turned even harder zombie criminals; and The Floater (not sure I want to know about that one); all while completing tasks for survivors à la Fallout using an RPG style levelling up system.
If all of this sounds like something you’d enjoy, you’ll be glad to know that we have five copies of Dead Island on PS3 to throw at you lot, like an axe at a zombies skull but hopefully a little less painful and intrusive.
All we ask from you is that you use that brain of yours one last time – because lets face it, the undead have already started taking over your town – and let us know which video game or movie character you’d have fight beside you on a zombie infested island and why? For example:
If I was stranded on a desert island I would have Simon Pegg out of Shaun of the Dead beside me so we could pretend to be zombies, sit it out with a pint in The Winchester and wait for all this to blow over.
The more inventive or funny the answer, the better! The five that we deem the best will win a copy of the game. Answers must be sent on a bloodstained postcard.
Not really, but if you could submit your entry in the comments section below that would be fantastic.  The competition will run through to 9:00pm on Friday 9th September and winners will be notified by the email address linked to your TSA account the following day after we’ve sifted through the submissions.

If I was stranded on a desert island I would have Dr John Zoidberg out of Futurama. His knowledge of the human anatomy would come in handy when faced with the hordes of “sickly patients”.

If I was stuck on a deserted island infested with zombies I would have to take George A. Romero, purely because he help catapult zombies into mainstream cinema and such as well as the slightly less know fact that the population of the town in the original Dawn of the dead was 53,594, this number has since been used as a joke in the credits of Shaun of the dead and certain zombie games (dead rising, left for dead, prototype etc) have one upped this number as requirements for earning certain achievements/ trophies, anyways he is the king of zombies and will always know what to do to survive and how to protect yourself from the horde, as a bonus the experience may even be inspiration for romero’s next movie which you may be asked to guest appear in.

If I was stranded on a zombie infested island, I’d want Ash (evil dead), a couple of chainsaws, a tanker of fuel & a hockey mask. Well, if I’m stranded, I don’t wanna get bored,their zombies so need to be put back in the ground ;)

If I was unfortunate enough to get stranded on a desert island I would have MacGruber by my side from the film “MacGruber”, not only are his gun skills unparalleled but also his evasive “Celery up the backside” maneuver, this will no doubt distract the zombie scum whilst I make my escape to safety.
For anyone who hasn’t seen the film/Celery scene, have a quick google. It’s worth the watch! :p

I’d have Beatrix Kiddo from Kill Bill with me. She could re-enact the Crazy 88 scene on the undead hoards, thus bringing the zombie apocalypse to a satisfactory conclusion

You only need one thing when fighting flesh eating undead stuff.

If I was stranded on an island with zombies I’d take John Marston from Red Dead Redemption, I mean, have you seen the way he handles the F**kers in Undead Nightmare.
I wouldn’t even need to move a muscle, John would kill them all for me!

If I was stranded on a desert island I would have Bin Laden out of Al Qaeda beside me, cos it’d take the best part of 10 years to find us!
DirtyHabit
Oh wait…video game or movie character.
Dammit, back to the drawing board. :(

I’d take Tiger Woods (the game reincarnation, obviously) I’ve heard he’s pretty good at pounding pussies!
