Joyswag: Win a Cobalt Black DS with Advance Wars or Prof. Layton
by James Ransom-Wiley 
{ Feb 14th 2008 at 2:30PM }
What's black and blue, and red all over? Why it's Joystiq's Valentine's Day giveaway! Admittedly, black and blue are not the colors of a healthy romance, and no one wants to think about 'war' and 'ruin' while toasting champagne with that special someone, but for those bitter, lonely gamers out there, here's your chance to get something out of an otherwise miserable Thursday. Just leave a comment between now and 2:30pm ET tomorrow telling us which game character you'd most want to be your valentine. We'll select two entries at random, with the winners receiving a brand new Cobalt/Black DS and either Advance Wars: Days of Ruin or Professor Layton and the Curious Village.
- To enter this giveaway, leave a comment on this post letting us know which game character you'd want as your valentine
- You must be a US resident, 18 years or older. (Sorry kids, love is for grownups)
- Limit 1 entry per person. If you comment on this giveaway more than once, you'll be automatically disqualified ... and still lonely, and still bitter!
- This entry period ends in 24 hours at 2:30pm ET Friday 2/15/08
- For a complete list of rules, click here

Definitely not Princess Peach (Mario AND Bowser...no thanks). I want to spend Valentine's Day with my fiance's character from Animal Crossing, but we only have one DS. That, my friends, is where you come in!

...Dur, and, uh, the valentine would most definitely be Peach from the Mario series.

If I had to choose, I'd got back to the days of FF7 and choose Tifa Lockheart. As Cloud, I always pushed to date her on the gondola ride....hahaha.

Jade, from Beyond Good & Evil.
Mike @ Feb 14th 2008 2:38PM
Samus. I mean, the Zero Suit is nice and all, but that Red, Orange, and Yellow body armor just does it for me.
