How do you know its the premium system we're gonna get? Any links to any sites? Any official word anywhere?

[Citruso]

Yes, live2flow, if you read the official rules you would see it for yourself. It's actually an Xbox 360 Prize Package, which includes the Premium and some Mountain Dew swag. Over $500 vale, that's what they say anyway.

if i live in canada can i play?

OPEN AND OFFERED ONLY TO LEGAL U.S. RESIDENTS RESIDING IN ONE OF THE FIFTY (50) UNITED STATES OR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA THROUGHOUT THE PROMOTION PERIOD.

Official Rules (http://pepsi.yahoo.com/everyten/official_rules.php)

[live2flow]

Citruso, thanks for the reply. However, this is what the official rules say:

6. Xbox 360 SWEEPSTAKES PRIZE:
Sponsor will ship to each verified sweepstakes winner the following: one (1) Xbox 360 system, one (1) game (title to be selected at time of registration for Promotion), and one (1) "Party In A Box" prize consisting of a five (5) Xbox 360/Dew branded hats and T-shirts, two (2) manufacturer's coupons redeemable for free 12-pack Mountain Dew products. Total estimated retail value of sweepstakes prize package is $580.00. Limit one (1) Xbox 360 prize per person and/or Account and/or household.

Nowhere there does it specifically say what system (core or premium). I guess you could speculate that $400 is for the premium system, $60 for the game, $10 for the two coupons (@ $5 each) and then $110 for the 5 hats/shirts (@ $22 each hat/shirt set) to get a total of $580. . .

OR

$300 for the core and $210 for the hats/shirts ($42 each) and the rest the same.

[Citruso]

Yea... I don't think they're merchandise is top quality. :top: Unless they over exaggerate.

[live2flow]

I'm now worried about the whole confirmation/verification thing. I mean, what if:
1. You have to have the bottlecap that has your winning code?
2. Dont get the email?
3. Some other terrible paranoid thing I can't think of happens?
:afraid:

[Romper Stomper]

Then it automatically gets sent to me.

[Th3On3]

Just to let everyone know.... I did get my confirmation though

In case no one could figure it out, I just called the mountain dew help line (1-877-370-2582) about the xbox 360 sweepstakes and they told me that you will receive the Premium system, which includes the hard drive and one controller. He said this offer also includes one choice of game between Madden 06 or Need for Speed: Most Wanted. The entire package along with the "party in the box" is estimated at $580. He also said in case no one knew, everyone who wins will receive it before everyone else. So there people, problem solved. Spread the word all over the internet. :listen: If you don't believe me, then call them yourselves. I've even included the number for you.
