Win: Dead or Alive Ultimate Bundles!
Can you say fairer than five copies of Dead or Alive Ultimate and five Xbox Live starter kits to give away? Didn't think so! Don't be a fool - enter now!
Here's the thing: Dead or Alive Ultimate is out THIS WEEK! After the roaring success of the groundbreaking Tecmo fighter in the States, Microsoft UK is continuing its no-brainer approach towards getting Team Ninja's masterpiece titles on British shelves - with the lavish attention such awesomeness deserves.
Part of that attention involves teaming up with top gaming websites to give away multiple copies of the game, along with Xbox Live Starter kits! So just head over to... ah, only joking! Kikizo IS a top website! At least, that's what the kids are saying. So look no further if you want to get your hands on one of five copies of the long, long awaited UK version of Dead or Alive Ultimate, each one coming with an Xbox Live starter kit.
Dead or Alive Ultimate is, frankly speaking, the best looking fighting game ever made. But it also breaks new ground insofar as it's the first ever 3D beat-em-up that you can play online against your friends. With superb character design, luscious fighting backdrops, easily accessible gameplay and stunning female combatants, there's really no excuse to be without this latest in the celebrated series.
Our brand new interview with the head of Team Ninja reveals all-new details behind the making of the game, as well as what the studio is up to next - while our full review explains why this is a must-have Xbox Live title. And you can see how stunning the game looks in our awesome 60fps hi-res videos below.
To enter the competition, answer the following special-needs question:
Which of the following is NOT a character in Dead or Alive Ultimate?
a) Hayabusa

Email your answer to contest@kikizo.com, stating your full name, UK mailing address, and your answer to the question. You must also make sure that your email address will be active at the date the copetition closes.
The competition closing date is Monday, February 28th 2005. All winners will be notified by email soon after the closing date.
Dead or Alive Ultimate is released in the UK this Friday, 18th February.
Important Note: unlike our monthly forum game giveaway, this competition is only open to UK residents, as all prizes are for the PAL (European) version of the game, and the LIVE Starter Kits are UK-specific.
