Oh Good, More Doritos Games For Xbox Live Arcade

@breadtruck:

I got only one...I think it involved collecting coins or something. The game was so terrible I couldn't tolerate more than the few minutes it took me to get that, and I never played it again.

This is cool. I enjoyed playing the 1st one for about an hour or so. after unlocking the achievements I havent played it since, but I can say that about most full price retail games as well.

@Outkastprince: Aspartame ("nutrasweet") kills. It's made with genetically modified E.Coli and metabolizes into formaldehyde, and is terrible for your brain, liver, kidneys, pancreas, and more.

To top it off, it was rammed through the FDA with falsified studies by Searle when the ever-cuddly Donald Rumsfeld was its CEO.

Not that regular soda is that much better (its main ingredient is water, but it's cheaper than water... wha?), but aspartame is pure shit.

@Phydeaux: Whoa. I tried and tried... and couldnt even get one achievement. So I deleted the game.

@jayislost: For some reason I was thinking some bizarro version of Triominos ^_^.

@relic1980: I think you just made Rotohex.

@jcb231: I've 200'd Yaris.

BOW BEFORE ME

@Koztah: Pretty much. After working at a place where I had access to unlimited soda and water, I realized how many calories were in Mt. Dew for no good reason. I forced myself to start drinking diet at that point.

Since then, I've actually switched back (high metabolism FTW), but still can handle drinking diet. It's just a different taste. Sort of like expecting Sprite, then drinking Diet Rite or Fresca.

@'360 Fanboy: I thought diet coke was disgusting, vile and unholy for years. Then, one day I decided to cut out (almost) all refined sugar from my diet.

One month without soda, cookies, cake, chocolate, candy, doughnuts and what-have you later.... diet coke tasted pretty damn good.

I think the problem is not with the drink, but that we're all fucking saturated with sugar so the diet stuff tastes like ass by comparison.

@ReVivAL: The exception. Remember McKids? Remember Yo! Noid?

By George, I've GOT it! How about a nifty casual game where you take triangles and have a color on each side of the triangle, then DROP them down, controlling them similar to Tetris (spinning them around) and connect colors to make the triangles disappear! Make random triangles drop that are solid color and only allow it to disappear when you have it surrounded with regular triangles that have the same color on their side touching the solid color triangle.

Gee whilligers, that would be spiffy! C'mon, who's WITH me!?

(listen...crickets) ^_^

@zgreenwell: Same here. It was a fun waste of a couple of hours.

@uglyteradon: I think that qualifies as 'win'

"so while we endlessly poke fun at the contest, it is a way to get your skills recognized by a large chunk of the gaming community."

it always seems so easy to find the positives in shameless activity when it doesn't concern Nintendo.

Crash__Man

dash of destruction WAS a very fun game for being free, i played it more than aegis wing, the ball game with the camera, and of course yaris, so it did get some milage out of it, i just wish i would have remembered that game when i was babysitting the neice and nephew cause that would have been easy for them (my neice SUCKED at fishing frenzy but shes 3 so i'll just accept that)

@TRT-X: you raped it of the achievements? Doritos wins this round, I'm afraid.

@jcb231: Never had access to Yaris but have to agree, for a freebie Dash of Destruction wasn't disastrous or anything. It didn't get me buying more Doritos (not even sure if that brand exists where I live) but it was decent, free fun for an hour or two.

@uglyteradon: win =D

Deathbearer

I hate to say it, but it wasn't a horrible game. Considering that the price tag was FREE it was entertaining enough for the brief time it took to finish. Yaris, now that was a horrible game, even for free.

jcb231

I loved Dash to Destruction. It was fun.

@ca$h: Every Arcade title needs to have achievements.

NeoStarr HD

I should make a game conveying the horrible hung-over feeling I get the day after I eat even a few of them. Gah, I'm getting heartburn just thinking about it.

@MrBangBam: And that's The Word!

@Pult|Ost - Not Backwards Compatible: She can lick my innuendo!

Wait, I did that wrong.

@theuglyteradon: lol, heart-click

I so wish I could submit something along the lines of "Slave Doritos Gushing Virgin Rape Hell."

Kobun

The game was downloaded a million times because it was FREE. But how many of thoes people held onto it for any extended amount of time.

I raped it of the easy 200 Achievement points and have since tossed it to the curb.

It would be a LOT more credible if whoever won didn't have to force the Doritos concept into the game.

@theuglyteradon: And like that, I'm sold...

@ReVivAL: Ah yes, Cool Spot was a damn fine game. But then again, Virgin Entertainment made that - and back then they made some great platformers...

@Courteous_Gentleman: Yeah but, Doritos ARE good...

Kinda got me thinking about Cheetos though... Here in Belgium, they're not as radioactive orange as in the US and Canada. They're not advertised as "dangerously cheesy" either... they're pretty mild actually, which is impressive considering most other american products found there are oversaturated (Sprite is like liquid sugar, Gatorade is horribly salty, etc...)

hmmm... damnit, I want some Doritos now. I hate being hungry.

@MrBangBam: Doritos sponsors dreams.

@ca$h: Dash of Destruction had achievements. So probably.

@'360 Fanboy: Hide your tech! Shes gonna lick it!

It would be cool if companies started making good food brand games like they did back in the day.

Anyone remember 7up dot the game? I think I beat that game several times on my Genesis.

@'360 Fanboy: That is indeed the Chobot.

@Ur-Lord-Crypy:
Sir!

The dream of sharing one's love of the smooth, mouth-watering taste of Cool Ranch Doritos is noting to snark at.

Will it have achievements?
'Cause if it has achivements I'll totally play it.

After all, I already lost my soul to shameless marketing games after I maxed out "Sneak King." And you had to pay for that one.

@Outkastprince: Diet Coke, in my opinion, is absolutely disgusting. Doritos are an entirely different story.

'360 Fanboy

@theuglyteradon: Interesting.

Dreams? who dreams of making a game for doritos? Anyone with this as a dream should aim a bit higher.

On a funnier note, the website Goozex, that does trading for games, Has Dash of destrution up as 400 points, with each 100 points equaling $5. there are 8 people waiting in line for it.

@theuglyteradon: NAW MY EYeZ CAN HAZ WHAWT MY MAWF TASTES TOO TEH XTREME!!1!!1!

@Outkastprince: I get to answer Frito-Lay Canada. :)

sedimin

I suddenly have a craving for doritos.. I wonder why... :P

Cloud_Hiro

I love a pack of Doritos with my diet coke on the side. This is the contradiction life.

The prize makes me smile. Mostly cause when someone ask which gaming firm you work for, you have to with a straight face answer "Doritos".

Outkastprince

I think that's a typo, it should read "Oh God, More Doritos Games For Xbox Live Arcade".

@theuglyteradon: (In a perfect world this would be the only post on this article)

@theuglyteradon: AND IT ONLY COSTS 1 DOLLAR, WAIT ITZ FREEEEEEEE!!!

'360 Fanboy

YAAAUSSS!!!! Seriously though if I find you\ve got all points in the doritos games you automatically lose all value as a human.
