Can't remember Revolution well enough to compare the Alliance flavor to that one, but it had an artificial berry-type flavor that I didn't find terribly agreeable. The color's quite striking and will hang out on your tongue for a while. The red one's about what you'd expect if you had Game Fuel last year.

    I don't think I'll be picking up the blue one again, especially not while Voltage is out, but I do like the original Game Fuel in small doses, I guess. Wake me up when Pitch Black comes back around.

    If only we were so lucky, I am not a Dew drinker, the only one that is out that I can drink in small doses is Voltage. I loved Pitch Black.

    Gave the blue Game Fuel a try the other day... really don't like the mouthful of a name like Mountain Dew Game Fuel Alliance Blue. I've seen folks pretty much just call it the 'blue game fuel'. Go figure.


    I expected the flavor to be very berry infused, but it was quite muted, to be honest. If you closed your eyes, I'm not sure you'd place that the drink was blue... you might confuse it with Code Red. As for taste, I think it shared some commonalities with last summer's Revolution... but the color was more more vibrant and bold... in a "my tongue is now blue" kind of sense.

    Lol the orc on the packaging is scary! I work for a marketing company doing the campaign for Mountain Dew and my first taste was from a taster can similar to the one pictured above.

    I like the flavors a lot personally, though i am biased toward horde red?(lol I play horde in game).

    Here's a link to the microsite for you guys if you'd like to learn more about the product, you can also get in game goodies like a 14 day free trial and a in game pet. You also have the chance to win some cool prizes as well.

    My local grocery store still has a dozen or so 12 packs of Game Fuel. I should probably buy them since it'll probably be another year till it comes back (they seem to be doing Game Fuel & Dewmocracy in alternating years).

    Horde red disappeared fairly quickly around here once the run was over, but Alliance blue held on a while longer. They ended up putting $1 off coupons on them to get rid of them.

    Haha we had it for the mid summer but it dissapeard pretty quick.
    Then I went to Ohio and was in an IGA and saw a few boxes (although I was pying attention to the Throwbacks).
    Then I tun a corner and theres a HUGE pile of both for $2 a box!
    Then I got back to NY and found a random box sitting in a 7-11.

    Just bought six 12-packs in Peotone, Illinois for 99 cents each.
