Well look what the great people over at Epic sent us to giveaway!! This very rare nutcracker stands about 1 foot tall, and is sealed in a beautifully designed art box. This Nutcracker is based on the “Creep” enemy in Bulletstorm. The “Nutcracker” is also the name of one of the many “Skillshots” available in the game.
To win this very cool nutcracker, you need to first download the demo of Bulletstorm and play it. Take a photo of your best score and post that picture here in the comments. If you are having issues, you can also email your picture to me at oly[at]ps3blog[dot]net and then post that you did that here in the comments. The winner will be chosen at random, meaning having the highest score doesn’t matter. The deadline for submitting your picture, as well as the drawing, will be one week from today, Tuesday February 1st at about 3PM Pacific time. Depending on the number of entries, I might add a very cool second place prize!!
Bulletstorm is also giving away a PS3 console tomorrow, Jan. 26th, for doing the exact same thing.
“How would you like to win a Bulletstorm PS3? Tweet a pic of your best score with #killwithskill tag. We’ll pick a winner tomorrow! http://twitter.com/bulletstorm” A picture of the console is after the jump.
Here is the newly released Bulletstorm Demo trailer. And don’t forget, “The Bulletstorm demo also allows players to unlock platform-specific upgrades to use in the game’s Anarchy mode, from the Crimson Leash to Stealth Armour, when they purchase the full game.” Enjoy and good luck!!

It’s very easy to create a US PSN Account, 5 minutes tops.

That’s mine ; )
#19 by Dean147 on January 26th, 2011 [ 359 Points ]
hmm, well I would enter the competition; to support the site and all.
But I’ve just played the demo and I hate the game. Bulletstorm is just another shallow bro shooter just like Gears of War. WTF is with the auto-aim and the twitch controls.
When will EPIC make a game that has real depth and a story to it.

Bulletstorm is awesome.
#21 by Oly on January 26th, 2011 [ 129785 Points ]
Turn off auto-aim and twitch in the options if u don’t like them..
Also, this game is meant to be mindless fun..
#22 by William on January 26th, 2011
No matter how many times I shoot the enemies in the crotch, nothing happens. I wonder if that’s only in the full version game or something. I shot them with every weapon in the crotch and every single enemy. Nothing. Srsly? Are their crotches on their knees or something? Anyway:

Here’s my score… needs improvement!

@Oly exactly, its meant to be mindless fun. I can’t do those games. They can be fun. But I prefer a game with meaning and depth, not just blowing enemies apart for no apparent reason.
Also I know you can change the controls in the settings but the gameplay still feels very cheap, compare it to killzone where you really feel like you are in the warzone and carrying a heavy gun.

hahah sweet!!!
#27 by Oly on January 26th, 2011 [ 129785 Points ]
I’ve ran into the same issue.. but I’ve seen a video where they are doing it on the demo.. so??
#28 by Yaridovich on January 26th, 2011 [ 125 Points ]

My first try.
#33 by William on January 27th, 2011
Yeah I finally got it to work the other day, but the weird part was that I was trying to get a headshot, missed and hit his chest…Yet he crawled over. Then again, maybe I actually hit the area and didn’t realize it. I’m hoping it wasn’t a glitch ;.;
I’ll see if I can rack up some points this weekend…
#34 by William on January 27th, 2011
^^^ I meant to say last night, not the other day, lol. I only downloaded the demo yesterday!!
