Party In A Box

[Nato King]

Winners of the EveryTenMinutes.com free Xbox 360 promotion have begun to recieve their introductory winners packs, dubbed Party In A Box.

The package includes:
5 T-Shirts (XL)

5 Baseball Caps

10 Party Invites

1 Confirmation Letter

2 Coupons, each exchangable for a 12-pack of Mountain Dew

So it looks like Microsoft are hoping for Xbox 360 parties around the country when these 360s ship! Check out these pictures of the package contents, courtesy of Avid, one of the contest winners:

Maybe this means that the Xbox 360 consoles themselves will start arriving soon. I was personally hoping they wouldn't be sent out so early - it could blunt the excitement of the launch day.

I really hope they start getting their xbox 360's early. Hot damn, i need some things to be reviewed before i go out and start purchasing 6-7 hundred dollar bundles.

[r3lik1]

I really wish they were giving them away free!!! LOL

[Bakeman]

Cool!
Hopefully mine comes before the week is over

I got my "Party in a Box" last night, and mine came with all that stuff shown plus a free bottle of MDX. I'd throw a pre-release party, but I'll be on a plane to a different state for Thanksgiving the day its supposed to arrive.

That said, the consoles are supposed to be delivered on the 19th. I doubt they'll show up early. The little white card shown in the 3rd picture there says that winners should expect an email about their 360's sometime soon (between now and delivery), although it doesn't give any other specifics about it.

Woulda been a lot cooler if they were 360 logos instead of mountain dew.

[icarusfountain]

There's 360 logos... on the backs of the shirts and hats.

I thought it was pretty lame, too. Like I want to wear around a hat that has a giant MtDew logo on it...

yeah, I thought It kinda defeated the purpose. I don't mind being a walking logo for 360, but for MT dew...........come on now, pepsi's better anyway

[icarusfountain]

I won mine drinking only Pepsi. I dislike Dew... although this free MDX is kinda okay.

[Smiley7853]

Right on bro! I never win jack.

[icarusfountain]

Best part was, I won mine using a dollar I found on the ground. My wife yelled at me for wasting the buck on Pepsi, and then *bam*, I win a free 360. I just had to rub that in her face.

[SH4MR0CK]

Hey im just curious what 360 package you get when you win one from the dew contest the 300 or 400 dollar pack?

[Smiley7853]

Hah! your married...^^^does it suck, or is it cool? Ahh the joy of being 16.... still pi$$es me off that you won off one dollar though. god. if you win anything else could I have it. my luck is like, in the negatives.

[Fanobills]

Right on bro! I never win jack.

My greatest winning ever was $130 on like 8 $2 scratchers.

Then I went out and bought a 1/16 of coke, and some cigarettes, soda, and mexican food.

[icarusfountain]

SH4MR0CK, it comes with the $400 bundle (HDD, wireless controller, etc), and you get your choice of either Madden '06 or NFS:MW. I went with NFS.

Smiley7853, I'm 23 and just got married. Its actually pretty cool; my wife is quite the gamer herself. She's mostly into stuff like Tetris and othe rpuzzle games like that, but she also kicks ass at FPS games. When we were first dating, I introduced her to MoH:AA and UT99. Within a week of frst playing UT99, she could kick my ass pretty easily. When I got her started on MoHAA, she became a member of my clan and was one of our best snipers. In Halo, she'd regularly snipe me and the other guys out of our Ghosts as we would zoom over the hills in Blood Gulch.

Its no wonder why I love her so much. :)

But to be fair, I actually bought $8 of 20oz Pepsi's, 2 of which were from the $2 I found on the ground that morning. One of those two codes was my winning entry. So I didn't win on just a dollar; it was just that dollar I won with.

By the way, do you want a shirt? I don't expect I'll be giving many of them away.

[Jackyboy]

i probably spent over $80 on this contest, and i didnt win :bang: :bang:
oh well, i will have a lot of soda for a while and a few beanies

Dude,if I ever get married, I want a wife just like that. does she get mad when you tell her your blowing money on games? If not, she's way cool.

If your serious about a shirt though, I'd love one man. That'd be way cool.
