Doritos XBLA Game Finally Released

I remember waaaaaaay back when the Doritos Xbox Unleashed contest was still going on. You could come up with ideas for a Dorits themed XBox Live Arcade Game and if yours was picked, it would be created. I wonder how winner Mike Borland feels as his creation has finally come to life. Doritos Dash of Destruction is a free game released today that features a Tyrannosarus Rex chasing down a Doritos Delivery truck. You can play either as the dinosaur or the vehicle and even play against friends as your try to outwit each other. Oh, and with NinjaBee behind the creation it is sure to be designed as a top notch game. I just wonder why they picked Mike’s game instead of my Doritos Ninja idea. Yes, I am a sore looser!

Seems our good buddy Patrick Steen from Ripten has some reliable sources that have seen the first Metal Gear Solid pop up on PartnerNet, the developers-only Xbox Live network used to beta-test unreleased downloadable Xbox 360 games.

Snorkle256′s Note: This is interesting since the latest Metal Gear Solid game is hitting PS3 right now. Oh well, they know we cry for one.
