" Unlock Xbox" - Jun 25, 2007 03:09
I don' t really know what it is. Is it a game developer competition or something?
I read a little about it in the latest Pitpass Report on Forza 2' s website.
I thought you might be interested so here' s the official website
http://www.unlockxbox.com/default.aspx

You know you’ve got it. The vision. The inspiration. The dream. Whatever you want to call it, it’s what makes great video games great, and it’s inside you. Here’s your chance to let it out. The DORITOS® brand is providing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to turn those brilliant ideas into the world’s first user-generated Xbox 360 video game.

Think your ideas are ready to take on the world? It’s not going to be easy, but hey, somebody’s gotta win this thing. Might as well be you. Here’s how you do it:

Tell us your idea for a DORITOS® brand–inspired video game. Use our iconic shape, bold flavors or simply our intense experience - whatever comes to mind. How you use that inspiration is entirely up to you

Every great game has to start somewhere and sometime. Why not here and now? Submit your concept for a DORITOS® brand–inspired video game. If your idea has what it takes to go the distance, we’ll turn it into the world’s first user-generated video game.

The five finalists will bask in the glory of an epic home entertainment system: 42" plasma television, a Limited Edition Xbox 360 Elite Console, ten Xbox 360 game titles, 2,000 Microsoft Points, a one-year Xbox Live Gold subscription, a home entertainment system including a 5.1 Dolby Surround Sound System, and a pro-gaming chair.

Hey! That Pepsi game was awesome. The one with Pepsi-Man.
It' s one of the best PS1 games I' ve ever played. Simply because it was based on a great idea.
And just like that game was great, the Doritos game can be great.

What the hell is Doritos?

I just found out that Doritos is owned by PepsiCo. PepsiCo makes Pepsi. And the PS1 Pepsi game with Pepsi-man was awesome which means the new game for the 360 will be ultra awesome!

If I thought I actually had enough talent to do this I so would.

The biggest problem is that who actually wins is decided by an internet poll which means that the best game will prolly not get picked because people in general are idiots and so will pick an absolutely crappy game. The funny thing is it isn' t even going to be sold it' s going to be a live arcade game.

What I want to do is be on their panel of judges who are refered to collectively in the terms and conditions as get this JUDGES isn' t that amazing. But seriously it would be kinda fun as long as they got rid of all the really shitty ones first.

I think that someone on kikizo should do this and also tell us your idea.
