Hard to explain. Though i feel like a dork for buying it, i mean why not just call it "nerd fuel"? ;) I'm not a huge Halo fan, more that i like Mt Dew, but if i need caffeine i usually go with Jolt. Halo 3 just seems so over hyped that it just makes me laugh when i see cross branding. Maybe i'll play it if i can keep my 360 from red ringing of death on me. again. Wait! I got it, the soda is read, the 360 is famous for the "red ring of death", game fuel is the "Red Soda of Death". Maybe not.

Don't advertise Coke in medieval England or feudal Japan.

Either way, I find the ads silly...but I never buy anything based on ads. If my wife was a gamer, I'd ask her opinion - she's heavily influenced by advertising.
