I had to do a double-take when I read this email. Capcom is currently running a sweepstakes for Dark Void where they’re giving participants the opportunity to WIN a Tesla Roadster. These cars are all electric, kick ass, and are valued at over 100,000 dollars. There’s like a PAPER THIN link between the Dark Void game (the bad guy is named Tesla and the car is a Tesla, get it? ), but who cares. Honestly, Howard Brown played the game at E3, so potentially winning a copy of the game is already awesome because the game is looking VERY good. However, the car? Folks, even *I* am competing to get this bad boy.

Details on the contest and prizes after the jump. Go Capcom!

From the Press Release:

To enter the sweepstakes, visit the official site Dark Void site at http://www.darkvoidgame.com/tesla/ to sign up for a chance to win. Five lucky winners will get a free trip to Las Vegas this January during the Consumer Electronics Show to test drive the Tesla Roadster with the Dark Void development team. In February, one very lucky winner will win the grand prize — their very own Tesla Roadster. Gamers who enter before Dec. 7 are eligible for the Test Drive Event and the grand prize. Those who enter after Dec. 7 will be eligible for the grand prize only. By signing up for the sweepstakes, fans will also be entered into the Dark Void community to stay up to date with game news, new assets and announcements. The winner of the Tesla Roadster will be announced in February 2010.

“Nikola Tesla obsessed over building the perfect machine — just like Tesla Motors. Until the parallel-universe jet pack becomes a reality, there’s always the Roadster,” said Ricardo Reyes, vice president, communications, Tesla Motors. “It’s only fitting that we partner with Capcom, another cutting-edge company, to honor a revolutionary genius.”
