    Overall the best thing, besides the fact this is free, is the fact that it has the easiest achievements to date, besides using your Avatar.
  2. It's not going to win any Game of the Year prizes…in fact, it's not even a great game. But it's worth the attention of Xbox 360 owners, and hopefully something we'll see happen again for how it involved the community.
  3. Proof that in life, you get what you pay for. [Feb 2009, p.91]
  4. Tolerable maybe, and fine for a 40 minute laugh session, but definitely not special.
  5. Relatively amusing. [Issue#42, p.112]
  6. Overall Dash of Destruction is a pleasant enough detor that for younger gamers may prove to be more entertaining.
  7. Doritos: Dash of Destruction isn't the best of games available from the Xbox LIVE Arcade, but for free it is a must-download – especially for achievement junkies looking to earn some easy GamerScore.
  8. A brief distraction from a never-ending chain of blockbuster epics.

  1. I'm giving this a 1. Why? Because it's free. If it had cost any money at all, I would have nominated it for worst game of the year. The only compliment that i can give it is that it's not "Yaris". Full Review »

    It's about as deep as a flash game. It gives an easy 200 gamerscore and will rot forever on your hard drive when you're done in five minutes. It's also feels very overpriced, even though it's free to begin with. Just thinking about it is boring me. I don't need to comment on the sound and graphics thoroughly, what would you expect. A real blemish on the shining face of Doritos. Full Review »

    Wow! If all the "gametizements" were this fun, I'd probably buy a lot more Doritos or Toyotas or whatever they're hawking. I had a rollicing good time driving about in increasingly souped up delivery vans in a desperate attempt to avoid being eaten by velociraptors, or T-Rex or whatever they were. It was slightly less fun trying to gorge myself on Doritos vans as an increasingly cybernetic dinosaur. Full Review »
