Win Guacamelee! On PS3 and PS Vita

Hola, ¿cómo estas? We’ve just taken a big swig of tequila and woken up in a strange world filled with nefarious skeletal baddies and colourfully-masked heroes. It’s okay though, we came back to the real world with five codes for today’s best PSN offering: Guacamelee!

In case you’ve not been paying attention, Guacamelee! scored 9/10 when I reviewed it. It’s a Mexican, Dia de Los Muertos, themed platform brawler with a light upgrade system and evolving pathways (that’s a fancy way of saying “Metroid-vania”).

So, you’ve got a PlayStation 3 or a PlayStation Vita (or both, it’s totally cross-play/-buy/-save), and you’re ready to pull on a luchador mask and go nuts, how do you win one of the five EU PSN codes for the game?

Just leave a comment below telling us what your Mexican wrestler name would be and we’ll pick our five favourites at around 4PM. Feel free to give us a little back story, some info on their fighting style, etc. If you’re lucky enough to win, your code will be emailed to the address you registered with TSA when you signed up.

The editor’s decision is final and our usual T&Cs apply, so no fighting with the referee. Please note that codes have to be redeemed on a PS3 – regardless of the version required.

Update: Phew, this was quite a popular one, huh? We can’t really blame you, and if you’re not one of the five winners listed below, we’d thoroughly recommend that you pick up the game anyway – especially if you’re a PlayStation Plus member!

Here’s the list of winners. If you’re listed, you can expect an email from me with your code in the next five minutes or so:

  • NemesisND1derboy, who built his character’s origins brilliantly.
  • hanmik, who immediately followed the entry above with a satirical take on a recent games media controversy.
  • ProjectJAY, who made a smart play on words – across two languages, no less!
  • quinkill, who took the time to write (or translate?) his entry entirely into Spanish!
  • Takyu, who based his entry on tequila and on a style of Kung Fu – two of my favourite things.

  3. He would be… Le Tortuga!
    Once a member of the infamous drug cartel Los Muertos, this hombre with nothing to lose decided to lay low by taking up a career in luchadore wrestling (makes sense).
    Taking things slow and steady, he circles his opponent in the ring, waiting for them to make their first move before going in slowly for the kill.
    If things go south of the border during a fight, he isn’t afraid to unleash some machete justice either.

    Le Tortuga!!!

  4. Estoban de la Sexface.

  5. Hot Sauce tasty.

  6. Fellow TSAers, since only five of you can win, let me share the wealth a little! I too am giving away two EU codes for this fantastic game. Increase your odds, and good luck to you all.

  8. Thanks TSA! It was written in Spanish. I knew that Hispanic Studies BA counted for something :D

  9. Thanks..! Keep up the good work here on TSA..!

  10. ehh just a quick question.. the competition says that I have to redeem the code on my PS3.. what happens if I redeem it on the PC-site..? https://account.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com

    • not sure, we were told codes had to be redeemed via PS3 but I don’t think it’ll break anything if you try on the web store – the worst thing that’ll happen is it won’t work.

      • See I messed up and tried the code on the PC-Store, and the code went through.. now I have three copies of the game on my download list – All for PS3.. lol.. maybe it´s just the PC browser that is messing up. Will have to chck my PS3 and Vita when I get of work in a bit..!
