(This is a “port” of an article salvaged from the old site. It was written back in 2007. The writing quality sucks. I tried to spruce it up a little. I just wanted an excuse to drink this stuff because it is awesome. I hated how they brought it back with World of Warcraft artwork…and did it in 2009. Way to strike while the iron is hot guys. Also, mixing Code Red and Livewire DOES NOT produce the same drink. Not to me anyway…sniffle. Also, I just noticed that the CD case the can is placed on is Sothis by Vader…in case you were wondering. Also, Halo 3 turned out fine.)
Hooray, marketing! Mountain Dew seems to be after the hearts and urinary tracks of Xbox and Halo lovers everywhere. Remember the Mountain Dew baby vomit green Xbox? Halo 2 Mountain Dew machines? I don’t want to type Mountain Dew again, so I won’t. The word “Mountain” is just way too curvy for me to repeat in my head for too long.
I don’t care what anyone has to say about Halo 3. It seems to be a trend now for people to hate Halo. During my Halo 3 Beta playtime all I heard was complaining, which is funny since all those people logged huge amounts of hours playing said beta. Keyword beta. I for one am very excited for Halo 3, since it should actually be good, unlike Halo 2 (which was just sort of good). I had to hunt this stuff down since I love stupid drinks and Halo, but since I live in Wiener World and absolutely no stores around me ever have stuff like this, I had to cross the Mason Dixon line to find this crap. After that, I had a cold for a week and couldn’t drink it, so I had to let it ferment in the fridge. How does it taste? Really good. It’s like a game turned into liquid, and that game isn’t TMNT for NES, fortunately.
According to the can, Game Fuel is suppose to be "Mountain Dew with an invigorating blast of citrus cherry", and it has more caffeine in it. So not only do you get a magical citrus-cherry flavor, but you also get hyped up to do stuff, like sit around for hours at a time. Since caffeinated drinks have become pretty trendy among the gamer, computer, and people who love drinks that all taste alike, it ought to sell pretty well. I have to give a thumbs up to not having CAFFEINE emblazoned across the can in Halo font.
My camera sucks, so don’t worry if that picture is gross looking. This drink is actually really good. It tastes a lot like melted ice pops, specifically the orange and pink ones. The drink itself is orange. I hope it becomes a permanent flavor. I do have to point out a drawback to this magical concoction. After drinking it you can literally feel the sugar working away at destroying your teeth, just like in those dentist cartoons. I felt like a dentists dream come true after every gulp.
Each can comes with a big picture of Master Chief plastered on it, along with the Halo 3 logo. That means you can decorate your house with them, just like I did. Now when you walk in my kitchen, your surrounded by discolored Master Chiefs. We still have a bunch of this stockpiled. We’re keeping it forever. Also, ignore the people who say this stuff is gross, as they are either drinking it from bottles, or warm, both of which is sure to make any soda suck. The Slurpees are good too!
