Ubisoft, to help promotion of the game Driver, actually bought a Dodge Challenger – presumably to look all fancy at events and such like – but now that the game is close to release, they’ve actually decided to give the car away!
It’s part competition, part pre-order incentive – you don’t have to pre-order the game to enter the competition (you can enter the comp via text message) but apparently pre-ordering does ‘double’ your chances of winning. We’re not really sure how that works precisely, but we’re guessing pre-ordering allows you to enter twice.
Still, it’s a Dodge Challenger – a pretty awesome prize.
Ubisoft also released a developer diary focused on the game itself, which is worth a look.

The entry form requires receipt date and number as does the SMS entry.

Wednesday, June 29, 2011 at 4:11 PMIt seems that you have to buy it either way, so you can enter after release, but if you pre-order early it doubles your chances.

Wednesday, June 29, 2011 at 4:17 PMThe way I read it, you have to buy the game and then SMS to enter the competition – but pre-ordering doubles your chances.
