God of War III Slurpee tastes like Kratos' fury; it's delicious

by Griffin McElroy on Jan 29th 2010 10:46AM

When playing the God of War games, we've often wondered, "If Kratos' unflagging rage could be assigned a flavor, what flavor would it be?" Finally, that question will be answered by Mountain Dew and 7-Eleven, which are collaborating on the next advancement in frozen sugar-drink technology: The Kratos Fury Slurpee. We know that sounds like the kind of thing we'd make up for comedic effect, but we assure you, it's berry real.

You can pick up a tall, refreshing cup of Fury (which includes nonconsumable codes for DLC armor and other content) starting February 1, at which point you'll learn that Kratos' anger actually tastes like a pleasant mix of blackberries and lime -- and the blood of a freshly-slain Gorgon. But, yeah, mostly just blackberries and lime.

Blackberries and Lime doesn't sound very good at all.

Have you ever had a ruffie colada?

I'm going on the basis of slurpees here. I live in Winnipeg, which is the slurpee capital of the world, and I drink 4L of that shit daily, any Blackberries and Lime does not sound like a good combination.

(Yes, I am a fatass, thanks for noticing.)

Sweetie, you had me at "pass the butter".

I agree but i'l still give it a shot... oh yes that's right their is no 7-11 here in My Province of Canada. looks like i'l be missing out !

Blueberry taste so good combine with lime.... i live near 7 eleven so i know every flavor they got

"YES KRATOS! GET ALL YOUR FURY IN MY MOUTH!"

oh god...

I would choose just about any of those other pictures as a better cover for God of War III.

But the far left IS GoWIII's cover.

Just A Canuk...your comment is so much funnier with a dirty mind. Thanks for reminding me how distrubed I truly am.

No, I think he actually wants a slurpee on his GoWIII cover. :P

I was mostly referring to the three in the middle. Obviously the one on the far left is FAR too awesome. :P

Perhaps a slurpee cup on the cover of a game isn't too far into the future? I see crazy product placement like that becoming a standard fairly soon.

slurpee, tis the drink of he gods.

Something fizzy and stawberry, something tangy! Something to emphasize my RAGE! Something that can be enjoyed while smashing my PS3 Controller with sheer anger.

I really hope PMC is out on time, how I want to destroy the gods for causing me the suffering of constant button smashing with relative ease!

Is there anyone out there that really collects these Slurpee cups? Seriously?

.............

:)

It's really only for promotion/advisement. I'm sure there will be plenty of people to drink the slurpies even without buying the cup, and vice versa.

That said, I definitely try to collect these cups when I can.

Oh and btw Cap, I would like to apply to be a Planeteer. I imagine it looking something like this:

Storm Eagle [Planeteer | Power of Chameleon Sting]

Yeah, yeah...that'll show 'em....

I mean...So what do you think?

Dear Storm Eagle,

Thank you for your interest in the Planeteer Foundation. We at the Planeteer Foundation are always on the lookout for noble citizens who are constantly fighting for the good of the Earth.

I have been watching you for quite some time and am excited to offer you this newly crafted Power...

I dub thee:

Storm Eagle [Planeteer | Power of Phoenix Wright's Colloquial Catch Phrase - "OBJECTION!" and Captain Planet's Second in Command]

Remember, the Power is YOURS!

Not on purpose or consciously, but yes... I've got so many Halo, Spiderman, and Transformer cups (w/ Optimus Prime heads) in my cupboard. They're actually a good size for me because I tend to spill and/or break stuff (because I have little-to-no self-control.)

*And I hate "Coke" slurpees. That stuff tastes like chemically engineered dirt.

My dad

Dear Captain Planet,

Ahem.

Thank you....thank you thank you thank you.

Signed,
Storm Eagle [Planeteer | Power of Phoenix Wright's Colloquial Catch Phrase - "OBJECTION!" and Captain Planet's Second in Command]

Brilliant.

slurpee? like futurama's? puajj...

...wat?

"Mommy, this slurpee tastes like anger."

"Sure it does honey..."

I don't think I want to know what happens when the fury comes out the other end...

"Would you like a squishee? Today's flavors are cherry-lime and lime-cherry?"

While the simplistic cover for the PS3 game is nice, anyone of these images on the slurpee cups would of looked way better as the cover for the game.

To be fair, the ones on the far left and right sides actually ARE on the official game box.

wallywallas - I agree. I totally would have picked the one on the far left.

Except it the wrong season. I would much rather have a cup of hot soup than Slurpee right now.

It should be made of Bull shark testosterone, what's more manly than a freaking shark and testosterone.

Chuck Norris, banging a shark whilst eating dolphin and punching a grizzlie bear on the roof of a speeding train that's plowing through a field of Nazi zombies that are on fire.

Maybe.

You sir, have beaten me.
Although you forgot the jets flying over head while he orders his wife to make him a sandwich.

Market saturation... GO!

I would gladly buy 1 to 5 of these drinks if only I could locate a damn 7-Eleven near me.

i concur! i dont eve know where te nearest seven eleven is around this shithole

Funny, I live in a shithole and there are nearly 30 (not exaggerating.)

I hear ya, according to their website the nearest one to me is 200 miles away in Indiana (I'm in TN). I guess TN is just Icee country, no room for this fancy-pants Slurpee business.

Mmm, tastes like the blood of vanquished foe!

Finally something to be excited about: Slurpees of War!

I can't remember the last time the flavor I wanted (or any flavor for that matter) of a Slurpee machine actually worked for me. EVERY Slurpee machine within a 200 mile radius has been broken for 15 years, and I still fall for it.

Ahh, the perfect way to build a body like Kratos.

Yes...nothing builds muscle like sugar and ice.

Clarification:

The codes are non-consumable.

Does that mean that you're not supposed to eat it, or that it's a code that can be used infinitely many times?

After a couple Slupees my pee changes color :D

This game is going to be so F-ing awesome.

Maybe it'll come to the 360 in a year... lol

"Maybe it'll come to the 360 in a year"

It's published by Sony, no. Even if that was a joke it wasn't funny.
