How quickly do you want to reach Prestige in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3? If you want to take advantage of a never-ending stream of double XP (amongst other things), you'll want to grab some Mountain Dew. Two "Game Fuel" flavors are coming back, and in a unique promotion with Activision, purchasing a bottle will give you access to double experience time.

The "Rank Up Your Game with Double XP" promotion will begin in October, giving fans a chance to stock up on codes before the game's November launch. Both citrus-cherry and tropical flavors of Game Fuel will unlock double XP time. If you can't stand Mountain Dew, there is an alternative: the XP promotion also extends to Doritos tortilla chips, through the "Power of One" program.

"DEW fans have been clamoring for the return of Mountain Dew Game Fuel, so we wanted to really fire them up with a partnership that gets to the core of what DEW is all about," Mountain Dew VP of marketing Brett O'Brien said in a press release. "With this partnership we get to make sure that Mountain Dew fuels both the fans and their Call of Duty gameplay while they play Modern Warfare 3."

"For many of our gamers, Call of Duty and Mountain Dew go hand in hand, and together we wanted to deliver gamers a one-of-a-kind program around the epic Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer," Activision's chief marketing officer Tim Ellis added.

      Did they ever bring back Halo 3 Game Fuel? Because that stuff was delicious.

        I believe the citrus-cherry (left) flavor is that one.

        And yes. Yes yes yes. Coming from someone who considers Code Red to be the final word in sodas.

          The only thing better than Code Red was Halo 3.

          One of my fondest memories of Freshman year (among the Euchre tournaments and drunk kids stumbling everywhere) involved late night Game Fuel binges. Ahhhh

      What is the point of that? You already get points for pretty much walking around. You get points for just about anything in CoD.

      YESSSS, this is the best pop ever made! When this was last sold for WoW and previously Halo 3, I stocked up so I had months worth after it was taken off the shelves.

      All I can say about this is "really?"... why not just sell CoD levels on the marketplace activision? Heaven forbid people had to earn anything nowdays.
