Game Completed – DORITOS Dash of Destruction – Xbox 360

After getting the Xbox back, I thought I would checkout the Marketplace to see what I had missed out on in the last couple of weeks. Apart from the normal trailers, gamerpics and themes I spotted  DORITOS Dash of Destruction – particularly as it is a FREE Xbox arcade title.

Developed by NinjaBee (developers of Cloning Clyde, Outpost Kaloki XA Kingdom for Keflings, Band of Bugs, and Boingz for the Wii via WiiWare) DORITOS Dash of Destruction is described as:

fun and fast-paced racing game. Blast your way through cities as a hungry Tyrannosaurus Rex, as you chase a speeding Delivery Truck full of tasty Doritos. Or, try zooming in and out of the T-Rex’s path of destruction as the speedy Delivery Truck in search of your Doritos drop-off points.

Anyway a free game is a free game, so I thought I would give it a quick spin. 15 minutes later and I was finished, first game of 2009 completed and 200 gamerscore richer, easy achievements, nice :) Its a fun little game and worth a download.

Now for some reason, I have a craving for Doritos…
