Mountain Dew is teaming up with Xbox and 7-Eleven, Inc. to offer gamers an
improved, intense Mountain Dew Slurpee and three limited-edition Halo 2
collector cups, available at participating 7-Eleven stores nationwide. They can
also enter the "Win it Before You Can Buy It" sweepstakes for a chance to win an
early copy of Halo 2 before it's released on November 9. Additional prizes
include a trip to the 2004 Spike TV Video Game Awards, a trip to Bungie Studios

Pushing the Xbox hardware to its very limits, Halo 2 will expand on everything
that made the original game great, plus add a wealth of technological and
gameplay advances. Significantly improved graphics, enhanced artificial
intelligence (AI), an advanced real-time lighting engine and destructible
interactive environments are just a small part of Halo 2’s evolution of design
and technology. Every improvement in Halo 2 is designed to take gameplay to a
new level -- and in the end, to tell a more compelling story.
Utilizing Xbox Live to redefine online play, Halo 2 delivers superior online
multiplayer capabilities. Whether playing with a clan on a new multiplayer map,
boarding a friend's Warthog, dogfighting in Banshees or checking player stats,
Halo 2 will bring the social experience to a higher level via Xbox Live. More
