What better way to celebrate Valentines than with a Dead Space 3 in-game item giveaway!

roses are red[8][1][4][1][1][1]While some may see Valentine’s Day as a time to go out and have dinner with a friend or loved one, or perhaps even go to a singles party celebrating being on the other side of the Valentine’s Day fence, we have an alternative suggestion for you care of EA and Visceral Games.

The team behind Dead Space 3 has codes to help you make stomping the heads of Necromorphs all the more rewarding, and not only that, we have two codes to give each winner so you can keep one for yourself and pass the other on to a co-op partner. For your chance to win, all you have to do is post a comment below telling us what games coming out this year that you are most interested in (or even unannounced games possibly coming in the future). Let us know what games you are interested in, and we’ll do our best to make sure we keep you up to date in the coming weeks and months on any news regarding the game or franchise.

N-day card[6][1][4][1][1][1]Here’s how the codes break down: we will choose two winners for Dead Space 3 on EA’s Origin service, two for the PS3, and one for the Xbox 360. When you post a comment, you must specify your system of preference. The contest is open to U.S. residents only.

Here’s what you can win:

Origin and PS3 players:

-One winner will receive two codes for the “Tau Volantis Survival Kit” (containing the Marauder, Sharpshooter, and Tundra suit packs, as well as the Bolt Accelerator.)

-One winner will receive two codes that includes a “Miscellaneous pack” (including the Maurauder, Sharpshooter, and Tundra suit packs, the Bolt accelerator, Bot capacity, and Bot personality.

Xbox 360 players:

Good luck, and happy stomping!

Amazon’s Fallout success reveals a big problem with the video game business
The cast of Fallout.

April's biggest video game isn't a new release like Tales of Kenzera: Zau or Stellar Blade. Instead, it's a series that hasn't gotten a new entry in years.

Fallout is currently enjoying a wave of mainstream attention thanks to its surprisingly fun Amazon TV adaptation. Returning players and newly-won-over fans alike are returning to classics like Fallout 4 and New Vegas to scratch their post-apocalyptic itches. It's the moment any video game publisher dreams of, but there's just one problem: Bethesda can't capitalize on the moment.

A Redditor ‘didn’t know’ about the Steam Deck, so they built their own
The homemade Ryzen Deck sitting on a desk.

It's hard to imagine that anyone interested in portable gaming hasn't heard of the Steam Deck, but one Redditor says they "didn't know" it existed. And because of that, they decided to build their own.

The 3D-printed contraption comes from Raven0606, who shared images of the completed handheld on the r/SBCGaming subreddit, which is dedicated to handheld emulators. The build took nine months to complete, and Raven0606 dubbed it the Ryzen Deck in honor of the Steam Deck (they found out about Valve's handheld halfway through the build process).

All Trinkets in Tales of Kenzera: Zau, explained
The main character of Tales of Kenzera: Zau stands with two elemental items.

Your main upgrades in a metroidvania like Tales of Kenzera: Zau will always be your new abilities. These transform the way you move and fight, but there are other ways you can make Zau a more powerful shaman. Trinkets are introduced right away, but aren't given away as freely as you might think. Each one requires you to overcome a small trial that tests your platforming abilities off the main path. Technically, you can miss every single one aside from the one you begin the game with. Even though there are a few fast travel points, backtracking isn't a particularly fun experience. Here are all the Trinket locations in Tales of Kenzera: Zau, plus which ones you should equip.
All Trinket locations
You can see which zones have Trinkets on the map, and for the most part, you will be able to grab them as you navigate through them for the first time. Here are each of the Trinket locations roughly in the order you should naturally be able to get them.
Battering Stance
This is the Trinket you begin the game with and is equipped by default.
Lifted Spirit

The first Trinket is found in this side path trial in The Buluu Caverns.
Retaliating Spirit
