Win a Xbox One via Doritos, Mountain Dew promotion online, PAX Prime

4.7

Microsoft has partnered with the Doritos and Mountain Dew brands to give away thousands of Xbox Ones in exchange for the longevity of your health, a press release revealed last week.

Specially-marked packages of Mountain Dew and Doritos will contain codes to be used as currency in online auctions for Xbox One consoles beginning on November 5. Participants can begin to stockpile codes on the contest's website on September 30, but nothing's stopping anyone from stockpiling the snack foods for the next two months.

PAX Prime attendees can also scan QR codes hidden in the convention center to bid on Xbox One systems in an auction on Sunday from 9 p.m. til midnight PST. The QR codes can be scanned with the PAX Guidebook App to bid on one of 30 Xbox One consoles, as well as subscription cards, gaming headsets and general merchandise. The press release notes that some codes "are worth more than others," so scrounging for as many as you can find might be worth your time.

Katsumi Will Australia have something along these lines?

I was able to enter, unless their system didn't pick up that my post code was not from the US it may of worked.

We have both Doritos's and Mountain Dew in Aus so they should include us in these nice competitions.

_Bale Looks like I'm going to be getting a lot of doritos!

Ill rather spend $500 on the sure thing xbox 1, than spend $500 on chips and soda just for a chance to win(i dont drink soda anymore and occasionally eat chip)

They should have made it a raffle event or something. Theres a possiblity you buy $300 worth of chip and not be able to win a auction for a headset or 1 month card.

Plus im sure theres gunna be a youtube video or something of someone going to a supermarket cutting off or taking pictures of codes to redeem them. I remember MW3, i had a bunch of codes i couldnt redeem because someone else already did

Kylan Does anyone know if this is in the UK as well as the US?

The UK will have a similar promotion but it'll be run by Pepsi.
Heard it the other day, so look out for special promo cans.

They should post that as news me thinks.

Cheers! Sounds good. It's a shame it wont be Mountain Dew though, I much prefer it to Pepsi.

You're welcome :D

To be honest I don't like Mountain Dew or Pepsi =/ MD just tastes like flat lemonade and Pepsi is a second rate Coke knockoff lol.
