You log into your EA account when you get these. When you gain prizes you select which version you want. The other three have been PC exclusive but you might have to choose one or the other for ME2. Not a problem unless you buy PC and 360.

Only 1 code available using the internet per week. In other words, you would need to ask for the codes for 3 straight weeks in order to get all three items.

@Jack:

since the codes go onto your EA account, doesn't it make sense that you can put it in both? Unless the people at Dr. Pepper are greeedy and require you to buy more products to get the same content for both games. That would annoy me.

So if I buy 3 Dr. Peppers and get 3 codes, I'm guaranteed to get my 3 ME prizes?



Could someone give me an answer on this? because if its guaranteed I won't buy anymore.

If you ask for 3 weeks in a row, you have a 1 in 3 chance of getting a new code. So, basically, it is possible to get, for example, 2 helmets and a visor or just 3 helmets.

Darn it. UK is shafted again :( Well, on the very remote chance someone gets a spare code and they are willing to part with it, I'd appreciate it (PM).

Yeah, I know - unlikely to happen, but hey - Bush got elected (twice!), so stranger things HAVE happened :)

God I hate the taste of Dr. Pepper. I guess I'll buy it for the Code and chuck it


Lol, same for me, except I don't drink soda at all. My roommates boyfriend drinks Dr. Pepper though, but we haven't seen the EA bottles here yet. I guess if I find them, I will just buy them, take the code and let him drink them.

I'm pretty sure you get to use the code on whatever prize you want. I mean, by your logic, it's way more than a 1 in 3 chance, because if each code was for a specific prize, you might not get one for an ME2 prize at all.

will this happen in the UK ?


Nope, even though when this promotion started a UK company owned all the rights to Dr Pepper (Cadbury's) but now the dastardly Kraft owns it.  We just gotta face it, we're 2nd/3rd/4th class citizens when it comes to EA.

That's what happens when you give us taxation without representation. HAH! Oh yeah, I just went revolutionary on your ass!

You choose which prize you unlock. Get three codes, you get all the prizes.

If I go and buy some more maybe I'll give them out to my fellow forumites over the pond. Who knows.

Probably not. The details on how to contact them are in the thread. You should try asking them yourself.

Official rules state that you only get one code per week. So, it would take 4 weeks for 4 codes.

Still no bottles around in stores around here. I requested a free code (no purchase necessary) just yet, will see how that goes.

Great thing about this campaign is that there's no actual continued production and material/shipping costs (so no 'running out of stock') while still offering added value for people who like it. It's still cheap stuff, but for once a soda company offers cheap stuff I actually want! :D

You have to mail them a self address stamped envelope so the free code actual cost you 88¢.

When your selecting the game, it makes you click on a type to send you to the prize selector. The games up there are all PC exclusive, but I'm thinking if it makes you do that it might make you choose between the two versions of ME2. I'm not sure though since it isn't up yet, we'll just have to wait and see.

So if that is an US promotion only, europeans have to download the content from another source?

Correct. They'd have to gain the code some other way. You know what that means. ROADTRIP!

Thanks for the info, I kind of knew most of it but its nice to see all in one convienient place. They should probably stick this.

I do think its sad that even though you say clearly in your original post, that this is a US only promotion, people are still asking if they can get it in the <insert country thats not the US here>. I don't know if its funny or sad...
