Even more obsessive Game Fuel purchase disorder

Previously, we told you about a group of guys over at the Microsoft is Awesome blog who stockpiled an amazing stash of 444 cans of Mountain Dew Game Fuel. We then challenged you, fellow X3F'ers, to beat their 444 can survival hoard and we're proud to say that we have a new champion. Sent in to us by NeuralLink is the photographic proof you see above showcasing him and his three friends' new record setting Game Fuel stash. As you can see, they're rockin' a twelve pack Game Fuel pyramid consisting of 55 twelve packs which translates to 660 cans of sweet liquid sugar. Congrats NeuralLink and to your crew, that 660 can stockpile should last you through your 24 hour Halo 3 all-nighter. Drink up.

We knew that there were fanboys out there who loved their limited edition Halo 3 branded Mountain Dew Game Fuel, but we didn't think there was anyone that loved it this much. Over on the Microsoft Is Awesome blog (we're not kidding, that's the name of the website) the three man crew posted picture proof of their 444 cans of Game Fuel that they've stockpiled due to its limited nature and because they can't imagine being without the liquid sugar when it leaves us in a few months. They are also challenging anyone to beat their Game Fuel survival stash. Who's up for getting 777 Game Fuel cans stacked up to the ceiling fan?

[Thanks, Arcaynn]

There are a few free theme and gamer picture downloads for our US and Canadian fanboys this weekend with both Mountain Dew and Pontiac offering up retail tie-in content. Available to US Xbox Live members is a free Mountain Dew Game Fuel gamer picture and theme and even though the theme is rather lame (same picture for every blade ... come on!) the gamer picture is quite sweet. Canadian Live members can download a Pontiac theme, picture pack and the week four Drive Fast gamer picture too. All downloads are free and should make you thirsty and ready to purchase a new vehicle within' the next five minutes.

Video: Halo 3 Game Fuel commercial

Posted Aug 24th 2007 2:30PM by Dustin Burg
Filed under: Halo 3, Videos

Airing on a television station near you is a new commercial promoting the Halo 3 branded Mountain Dew Game Fuel that we've all ~~became addicted to~~ grown to love. The commercial, embedded above, features numerous Xbox Live gamers screaming at their television sets, angrily yelling in multiple languages and becoming physically expressive of their pent up frustration. Why so much chaos and anger? Well, it's because they're getting pwned in Halo 3 by Mr. Game Fuel drinker himself. Give this Game Fuel commercial a watch and be sure to remember kids, you should chug it and have no mercy.

Visit Game Fuel online, download Halo 3 RSS reader too

Filed under: News, Halo 3

The official site for Master Chief's soda of choice Mountain Dew Game Fuel has gone live and Microsoft released a nifty Halo 3 branded RSS reader to boot. The official Game Fuel website is kind of bare right now, but offers up some information about the soda, a few free wallpaper downloads as well as a link to 7-11's Halo 3 sweepstakes that goes live on September 1st. The other goody is the official Halo 3 RSS reader, which is available for download, but you'll have to accept some terms/agreements first. The reader is a separate application that runs on your computer and will notify you when Halo 3 news hits the interwebs. It's pre-loaded with a few websites including Bungie.net, Halo3.com, and Xbox.com, but you can add your own customized RSS feeds too. Speaking of customized RSS feeds, we totally recommend adding X3F's Halo 3 feed to your official Halo 3 reader simply by putting this link in your "My Feeds" section. Once added, you'll be up to date with so much Halo 3 news that your eyes may pop out. No, we aren't kidding. Give Game Fuel a chance and download the RSS reader too, Halo 3's success is dependent on your purchasing and download decisions.

The X3F Halo 3 Game Fuel taste test

Posted Aug 9th 2007 5:15PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: News

Just this morning, a promotional case of Halo 3 Mountain Dew Game Fuel arrived at Fanboy Towers. The box stood alone on the front step, the delivery man out of sight. We can only assume he was eaten by the X3F guard bear, Toby. Such has become the fate of many delivery men (and yet not one mailman; those guys are metal). We cracked open the case to find two cans of the stuff nestled inside. Though our desire to sample it was ferocious, we wouldn't dream of our first taste being warm. Oh no, it had to be cold, so cold it might have been frozen by the Devil's wings in the 9th circle of Hell itself. So, we put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes. Finally, the moment of truth arrived. We cracked it open and ... it was sweet. Damned sweet. Drinking Halo 3 Game Fuel is, to put it simply, like drinking a Pixy Stick. Whether that is good or bad is completely up to interpretation.

The soda has more caffeine than regular Mountain Dew, and we definitely feel edgier than we did before drinking the soda. We're not quite sure that's the sort of "edge" it's supposed to give us, but we digress. Should you desire some Halo 3 flavored Mountain Dew, it should start hitting stores next week, though we've received reports that it's already available in some areas. If you manage to wrangle some for yourself, feel free to share your opinion here.

Halo 3 Dew "Game Fuel" available August 13th

Posted Aug 3rd 2007 10:15AM by Dustin Burg
Filed under: Halo 3, Fan stuff

Certain video game websites (see: not us) have been receiving samples of the Halo 3 branded Mountain Dew called Game Fuel (which we've known about for a while now) and confirming that the drink will be available for only ten weeks starting August 13th. The IGN guys were lucky enough to receive their two can sample and after giving the Halo 3 Dew a few good gargles they think the orange colored, cherry-citrus flavored soda taste like cough syrup and Dew ... but that's them. We know we'll love it, because A) we're fanboys and B) because we're fanboys that will drink any Master Chief branded soda, even if there's a chance that it'll make us break out in hives or cause our ears to fall off.

Game Fuel Dew is really, really expensive

Posted May 22nd 2007 4:15PM by Dustin Burg
Filed under: Halo 3, Fan stuff

The mysterious and oh so refreshing Halo 3 Game Fuel Mountain Dew that we saw at last week's LA event has hit eBay and is fetching a pretty high price tag. Up for auction is one can of limited edition Halo 3 Mountain Dew featuring Master Chief's handsome mug and is currently sitting at $20 or roughly $2 a sip.

Yes, it is one expensive can of Dew, but it has yet to be opened, so that should add some value ... right? Or you could be money-smart, wait until the Halo 3 Dew hits retailers later this August, and for the same price you can buy a few cases to share with your friends. We're going to go with option two.

Halo 3 Dew coming in August [update 1]

Posted Apr 18th 2007 3:45PM by Dustin Burg
Filed under: News, Halo 3

The marketing machine is shifting into first gear this August with the release of a Halo 3 branded Mountain Dew called Game Fuel. Advertising Age dug up some news on this "limited edition" drink, finding that its Brute plasma rifle red contents are packed with more caffeine than regular Dew to keep you awake during those long gaming sessions. This supposedly cherry citrus Halo 3 Mountain Dew will only be available for three months, so stock up when August comes around.

Update 1: Check out more Halo 3 Dew photos over at Lamma's Game Console forums.
