*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.

It would have to be Austin Powers! The image of him smacking zombies in the head whilst screaming “yeah baby” or “Yes, yes, yes…. NO! NO!”

If i was on a zombie infested island i would bring along Haggard from Bad company. We would spend the entire time strapping C4 to zombies and watching them explode, whilst out hunting for Gold bars that are supposedly stored somewhere on the island. Anyone want to tag along too?

I would take TV’s Dr Brian Cox, since he is so brainy he should be able to come yo with an escape plan. But if things go awry those zombies will be snacking on that giant brain of his long enough for me to get away if things go wrong. It’s all about survival people!

It would have to be Madison Page from Heavy Rain. She suffers from insomnia which would make her the perfect scout whilst I catch 40 winks, and if we get caught in a sticky situation she could always strip to distract the zombies whilst I hit them over the head with a lamp. Of course, she would only strip down to her bra. A girls gotta save her dignity. (Ping!) Trophy awarded.

Clint Eastwood.
“You feeling lucky, punk?” … as a Zombies head is blown into precisely 54 pieces.

I would have Ken Block with his trusty Ford Fiesta RS WRC. With Ken driving there would be no way for the zombies to catch us…… until we ran out of fuel!

Has anyone said Michael Jackson, cos I’d love for them to learn the Thriller dance routine!

If I was stranded on a zombie-infested desert island I’d have to have Sackboy as my accomplice, due to the simple fact he can spontaneously create anything from weapons to shelter to vehicles, so we’d rack up some inventive zombie kills, be able to live comfortably and be able to cruise in whatever we fancied :)

I would have the goblin king aka David Bowie from the film labyrinth. When all said and done goblins and zombies are fairly similar and if he can’t rule over them he can rub his totally inappropriate bulge in their faces.

You now have Magic Dance stuck in my mind!

Excellent one of my favourite movies of all time. Hopefully the power of voodoo, who do, you do, will put me in with a good chance of winning.

That was very nearly my entry! Glad I chose something else.

I would take the full Lost cast with me. 1, most of the women are fit so something good to look at before they get mutilated and the black smoke may take out a few Zombies, 2 they are used to the island, 3 throw Hurley at them that should keep them busy for a few days so i could make a raft.
