Spend Valentine's Day on Burnout (last resort)

Whether you've got a date or not this Valentine's Day, Electronic Arts invites you to switch on the James Blunt, bust out the love oils and get on Burnout Paradise with missus to takedown some celebrities we've never heard of.

EA will be holding the special Valentine's Day event on Xbox Live tonight (so we needn't cancel dinner plans - phew!), which apparently gives couples a chance to play with "Hollywood's hottest dynamic duo", Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, stars of MTV's The Hills. It's okay, we don;t know who they are either.

If we put our partners on Burnout this Thursday, we reckon the only magic we'll be getting that night is from the Kingdom Under Fire inventory screen.

If, like us, you've never heard of the weirdly-named pair, you can also look out for Burnout Paradise producer Craig Sullivan, who's probably got lots of interesting things to talk about.

The catch is (as this event is blatantly aimed at our mates across the pond) you're going to have to get up at 5am tomorrow morning to catch the US celebs, who'll be taking down punters right until 8am when the postie arrives - empty handed, AGAIN.

To connect with Heidi, Spencer and Craig send a friend request to BurnoutGWFHeidi, BurnoutGWFSpenc, and BurnoutGWFCraig.
