I used to drink the red Game Fuel back in 2011/2013, and this year's version tastes similar but with slightly more cherry. The versions 10+ years ago had more citrus flavor from what I can remember. Hopefully they'll retro Supernova at some point.
Dude, I totally get what you mean! The red Game Fuel is still pretty awesome, but we can't deny that the citrus flavor was on a whole other level. Let's hope they bring back Supernova soon!
Supernova was my favorite
MTN Dew always killing it with the artwork on the cans and bottles
They sure are! Love it!
nah. their game old game fuel designs were better. i am not a fan of the stupid collage artworks they do nowadays.
@@markn9619I get what you mean especially on the core flavors such as code red, live wire etc they shoulda kept the old designs it fits them more than the new ones the only that fits the most on the new design is voltage
Nabbed 2 cases of the classic citrus flavor and 1 of the mystic punch. Mystic punch is good and all but nothing can top the citrus cherry gamefuel instantly took me back to halo 3 days.
Great stuff! I didn't know I missed it!
@@ChrisFrezza It was such a good soda back then many nights spent drinking it and staying up playing halo and cod all night lol one sip of the citrus and it was like I was back in those days for a split moment. I wish they would come back out with the world of warcraft alliance flavor game fuel dew at some point it was so good! Can't remember the year exactly but it was even better than citrus cherry in my opinion. Only came out that one promotion to promote a wow dlc and has never returned since then. Most people don't even remember it or know about it but if they did they'd advocate for it's return!
I can’t wait to try citrus cherry. I’ve tried mystic punch, it was good.
Soooooo good!!
Citrus Cherry tastes like if Livewire and Code Red had a baby, nostalgic ❤🍒🧡🍊
Very interesting.
A cherry citrus BLAST from the past!
Yasssssssssssss
🎈🥳 Happy Birthday, Vito. Sunday is your special day. Enjoy it. You are growing up so fast. 🎁🎉
Thanks so much! I'll let him know.
we need to sign the petition to make it permanent....theres a couple floating around. It's my favorite flavor from ALL the way back to the Halo 3 days; nothing on the market comes close to this flavor.
I'm all for it!
Happy Birthday Vito! Let us know what you get for your birthday.
I'll be sure to let him know! :)
Good evening my good friends! Hope all is well. First of all congrats on hitting 22K! That is exciting! 25K will be here before you know it! Good for you guys! Also, great that you finally found these as well. Never tied the cherry one last time it was around, but I really do like Code Red as well. I am a big fan of cherry. So you really liked that one? How does that compare to Code Red? Would be nice to compare the two. Like, what would be the difference? Not sure what I would think of the other one either. I think I would stick to the cherry. Not as good as a Thrashed Apple, but I am sure I would like it :) Have a great night and rest of your week. God bless!
Heya guys! Thanks so much. :) Yea, finally found it today at Kroger. The Citrus Cherry is really good - almost like a candy chew with Cherry in there with that MTN DEW finish. REALLY good. I keep taking stock of all the Thrashed Apple around me and when it starts to go down i'm buying some. I hope you guys have a wonderful rest of your week. God bless!
Citrus cherry is the goat of mtn dew
It's really good!!
100% correct
Disagree taste like Crush 😂
@@DankBulbasaur13to each their own
It taste like a Shirley temple to me(citrus cherry), something from my childhood it reminds me of.
Too funny! :)
Bought both , havent tried the purple yet but the red was AMAZING , better than i thought it would be
Yummmmmmm!!!!
Yum, more Mountain Dew 😎
Yasssssss. Last new one of the year.
Both are good
😎👍
I remember one in 16 oz can charged berry blast Game fuel I love the new Game fuel citrus cherry
Good stuff!
Happy Birthday Vito!!!!
Thanks, I'll let Vito know.
My birthday is on the 14th! Scorpios!
Happy Birthday to you too!
I loved the fruit punch one
Citrus Cherry was way better!
Glad that you finally found them. Still looking for the Mystic Punch. Citrus cherry was amazing.
So good!
I just found bottles of mystic punch and citrus cherry at my local 7-11. I grabbed like 8 citrus cherry's and 2 mystic punch's. I have yet to find any 12 packs anywhere.
Awesome!! I'm sure the 12-packs will start showing up soon then.
I have clothes that I still wear that are older than Vito. 🥴 Masterful video! 🥬🍅🍅🍅
😂😂😂
I found these (20oz bottles) at the gas station I go to to find new things that come out. Weirdly enough, I have not spotted the Pitch Black that were supposedly supposed to come out.
Are you Canadian? Pitch Black has been done for almost a year now in the US, but still available in Canada.
@@ChrisFrezza Unfortunately no. I was looking for it last year when it supposedly made a come back or was that in Canada?
I've been having the damnest time trying to find the Citrus Cherry one. I was lucky enough to find Mystic Punch at my local Walmart and there were only (3) 12pks on the shelf. I'm not sure if they've been lacking in supplying them in stores, or if people are just going crazy buying them all up. It's been aggravating because I like to save the empty 12pk carton to have in my collection. Also, I think the original game fuel looks and tastes like DayQuil. But I still like it.
It's pretty much gone now near me. After the initial release, I can't find it anymore.
@@ChrisFrezza - that's discouraging to hear. Gonna be a bummer if I can't pick one up. I saw your other video about the leaked flavors for 2024 and am definitely looking forward to those ones coming up. I guess I'll have another opportunity next year to go on the hunt for when Game Fuel comes around again. That Midnight Mission one sounds amazing.
Does your collection only have to be the 12 pks or could you throw in an empty 20 oz bottle in there? I never look for the 12pks, but I always come across the 20 ozs.
@@wewhoareabouttodiesaluteyo9303 - Only reason I'm collecting 12pk cans is because I cut off one of the sides of each carton I get, because I'm planning on putting each one I cut out in a huge collage. I'm going to go 4 cut-outs across by 15 cut-outs down, totaling an amount of 60. I'm already about half way there. I got about 30 flavors collected including some old graphics of original dew, code red & voltage. Really kicking myself for not thinking of saving an old graphic of Pitch Black. I only have the newest design that looks like space and planets.
I go to Walmart everyday to find the Mountain Dew holiday cane mountain dew
Use the Dew Finder.
I know Chris had mentioned it in one of his video; however, they must have had a short run on it because around Christmas, none of the stores around me had it. The gas station I go to usually would keep older flavors until they either expire or sell out, BUT NOPE, nothing.
Just got several boxes. Haven’t had this soda, which is my favorite soda of all time, since 2014.
It's definitely been a while.
Anyone know where I can find it in connecticut fairfield county i can only find the diablo 20 oz bottles
Use the Dew Finder page.
I just found nos energy zero sugar review that on next video solid sweet taste
Very cool. 😎🤘
i miss Mountain Dew White Out
😎🤘
I love Mountain Dew! Love the review too!
Wooohoooo. Sooo good!
I feel like mystic punch tastes like voltage or purple thunder.
😎👍
Tried both, citrus cherry is the best. Got a case today at dollar general
😎👏👏👏👏
Happy Early Birthday Vito
Thanks, I'll tell Vito!
Thanks
I can’t find the bottles or the cans anywhere went to target then a gas station nothing then walmart also nothing
Try using the Dew Finder page. Google it.
When I tried the purple one,it did taste just like mountain dew Baja passion fruit punch the other purple one
ok
finally found it 🎉‼️
Finally! Wooooohoooooo
Citrus Cherry is 💣
It sure is! Sooooo good!
I give citrus cherry a 9.5 and mystic a 8.0
😎👏👏👏
I loved the original red gamefuel was more of code red/livewire mix. This is a later kind that tasted bad. This smells like fabreeze and tastes like strawberry-banana-pineapple. :(
The purple is pretty good... it tastes like purple thunder/pitch black2
Wow. I really thought this one was great!
Looks like they're selling it in California finally, so I'll have to hit up my go-to 7-11 location to buy some. It seems to be like the Caribbean guava/passionfruit where one was much better than the other. What was your single favorite flavor of 2023?
Summer Freeze was my favorite NEW flavor. Pitch Black's return was great too.
Although hard/pricey to do, I wonder which year has/had the best-tasting mix of all the flavors released in their separate years...like all the 2023 flavors (international+domestic)? @@ChrisFrezza
7:48 Oh God that looks like poop water 😂😂😂😂😂😂
OK seriously I need to get my hands on Citrus Cherry
Yikes. LOL!
Badlands got robbed in the king of the chug challenge!! He dominated where it counted out of the das boot. Would love to see u guys attempt a chug out of his boot 😂🤣
Eric is the man! Those guys are all friends so I'm sure they were all just having a great time.
There was another MTN Dew drink in the past that Vito stated tasted like a gummy bear. Shall we compare it to that flavor?
I can't even remember that. LOL! I do too many of these things.
@@ChrisFrezza Ask Vito if he knows when he stated that. Was it a Pepsi drink?
The Walmart near me had a lot of them I got one citrus cherry and one of the mystic punch the citrus cherry is really good and I’m gonna drink the mystic punch tomorrow
You will have to let us know what you think!
@@ChrisFrezza the mystic punch is good too but the citrus cherry is the better one
Great video as always, i'll be trying mine later today.
Thanks again, man! I appreciate the heads up. I've been looking for 2 weeks and even talked to a couple Pepsi distributors who were stocking shelves at Kroger and Meijer.
Where would the code be in the mystic punch
They are under the cap on the bottles and in the 12-pack carton of the cans.
I found both flavors in 20oz bottles at my local circle k yesterday
Yea!!! What do you think?
@@ChrisFrezza They are both really good but I like the citrus cherry a bit more
would love to know when Livewire is going to be in bottles in Canada, it's becoming difficult to get the 12 packs in HighMart here
I guess I didnt realize that wasn't available in bottles in Canada.
not your fault at all Chris, I'm only able to get them at HighMart which is 45 minutes driving from my house and it's not always available in the cans@@ChrisFrezza
Citrus cherry tastes like cough syrup
Well, at least it's a good remedy for a sore throat! Cough syrup-flavored soda, anyone?
I’m from Michigan as well and was wondering which Kroger did you find it at?
23 & Hayes Kroger was where we found this.
Which store did you go? i live in Detroit michigan i need to find gamefuel
Kroger on 23 & Hayes is where we found it.
gummy bear? game fuel isn’t supposed to taste like that. it’s supposed to taste like a energy drink soda flavor. which btw did either you guys try that mutant soda by monster that was released 5 years back? i got an expired one and it still tasted good, and citrus cherry taste similar to it.
This definitely does not taste like an energy drink. It's been 16 years or so, my taste buds don't remember exactly what Citrus Cherry tastes like.
@@ChrisFrezza i mean i always thought it was marketed as that, with it having more caffeine. guessing you never tried the mutant soda either.
Happy Birthday Vito! Great review fellas, can’t wait to find some at my local Kroger here in GA. Much ❤, take care guys!
Thanks so much! I'll let Vito know! :)
I can't wait to try these! 😀
Hope you enjoy!
I was a bit disappointed by the mystic punch I'm going to have to try the cherry one I thought the mystic punch tasted just like sugar water
Yea. The Citrus Cherry was far superior.
@@ChrisFrezza I'm keeping my eyes peeled for it 👀
Another great review, dudes! I too wish Citrus Cherry had a zero version. Happy (early) birthday, Vito! Soon you'll be getting your driver's license!
Thanks so much! I wish they had a Zero version for Vito as well.
One thing that sucks about this is the calories it originally had 120 calories and actually tasted a little better still good though. 50 more calories a can is a lot.
I wonder if that was the ones they did half diet and half regular.
Sounds delicious
It is!
Did I get bad 12 pack? Mine tastes like Flaming Hot without the hot. It's kind of gross.
Really?? Wow! Yea, they Citrus Cherry definitely has a strong cherry taste to it.
Did you pick up a Flamin' Hot by accident? lol Does MTN Dew ever expire?
hi veto baby cheeks
😂😂😂
Your a lucky dog 🐶 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
😎🤘
Too bad they aren’t releasing a Christmas mtn dew this year
RIP Cobra Cane
I'm not really the biggest supporter for releasing a mountain dew flavor that would taste like a cough drop or candy cane yuck 🤢
Ay man so random but any chance you could send me 2 of the halo infinite codes on the bottles its not available over here in canada and was looking forward to the in game items
Sorry, Vito is getting them.
Mystic Punch is ok.. nothing to write home about. Citrus cherry is a decent soda, but it 100% is *not* the original taste. The clarified cherry juice concentrate they added gives it a weird fermented fruit taste... sort of plum or nectarine-like. It isn't bad, but it's definitely disappointing. I drank the OG Game Fuel and every subsequent release more than probably anyone. I went through so, so much of it over the years, until they ruined it with the Titanfall 2 release that was secretly half-diet.
But since 99% of everyone seems to think it is exactly as it used to be, Mountain Dew will unfortunately never correct the mistake of that cherry juice trash they put in it. I'll never again have the REAL Game Fuel.
*cries in citrus cherry flavor*
I'm sure this some reason they can't make it "exactly" like before - some weird government regulation on a previous ingredient, etc..
@@ChrisFrezza Red 40 is a pretty bad food additive. I am surprised they have not banned it yet. They state that it can lead to colon cancer.
Happy Birthday Vito from @themtnduo
Thanks! I'll let him know.
Citrus Cherry is awesome. Mystic Punch is a little boring. Don't know why but it kinda tastes like baja blast but boring. So weird
I totally agree. I liked the Citrus Cherry was the better of the two.
its weird that its adveritising for halo infinitie isnt infinite like 2 or 3 years old lol
I know, right!
@@ChrisFrezza on God no cap brother
@@ChrisFrezza well i just got it, and i feel disappointed in the flavor tbh it almost tastes tooo powerful in the flavor
These flavors were kinda mid
The Citrus Cherry is top tier - Mystic Punch not so much.
Mid range? Well, there's still a chance. At least you did not state "These flavors were kinda low."
Ayyy just wanted to drop some of those codes under the caps
From top to bottom of cap
