Damn, one winner every 15 minutes. I guess I'm off to Taco Bell after work

TheSsus3859d ago (Edited 3859d ago )

If only it was Subway...

JoGam3859d ago (Edited 3859d ago )

I'm eating Taco Bell Everyday until its over. Well maybe not everyday.. lol

Eonjay3859d ago

And if your colon survives the experience, you may be lucky enough to walk away a winner! LOl... in all seriousness, I'm gonna be in line to get my mystery meat with the rest of you guys.

AlexanderNevermind3859d ago

JoGam3859d ago (Edited 3859d ago )

Send me a photo of you before and after look lol.

Ashlen3859d ago

Hmm, is it worth eating ground beef that's 20% sawdust to get a PS4?!?

(yes Taco Bell was forced to admit they use "meat filler" to lower costs)

xHeavYx3859d ago

I agree, I may just get the box and give the food to someone in need

PositiveEmotions3859d ago

I bubled you because you would help some one in need :)

jagstatboy3859d ago

Giving someone in need Taco Bell food is hurting them more than helping them. LOL.

Visualift3859d ago

Shredded cheese also contains sawdust (eg. cellulose)... it's the only way to keep the cheese from sticking to together in the bag. As for Taco Bell, if you wanna avoid the sawdust than avoid these:

Southwest Chicken
Caramel Apple Empanada
Corn Tortilla
Enchilada Rice
Nacho Chips
Red Strips
Strawberry Topping
Zesty Dressing

Ashlen3859d ago (Edited 3859d ago )

While I have eaten at Taco Bell since they revealed the ground beef thing. I don't really eat at Taco Bell often because we have a Del Taco near us.

The funny thing is the tacos at Del Taco use 100% ground beef and real cheese and they cost about half as much as a Taco Bell taco (less than half on Taco Tuesday).

Also when I go to Taco Bell they have 3 or 4 people working there and at Del Taco they have 4-6.

Basically, I don't get why they have to use meat filler in the first place.

OldGirl3859d ago (Edited 3859d ago )

Almost all packaged meats in America contain high levels of fillers. The FDA is to blame because they do not care about regulation only about making money, while other countries have strict regulations on just that and require people who package their meats to actually list the amount of fillers in them before people buy them.

If you think Taco bell is bad, that isn't the half of it. Tons of food, probably other foods you have even eaten contained fillers just as bad if not worse.

Also some people just gotta eat what they can afford and quality food isn't necessarily the cheapest and unfortunately the FDA doesn't care enough to make regulations any better for people who are buying cheaper foods.

medman3859d ago

Meat filler and whatever the slags scrape off the floor.

Didn't they do this exact promotion for the Nintendo Wii U... Except no one got a Wii U! The winners where conned and lied to so they never received.

FunAndGun3859d ago

Yeah, there was a fiasco with the Vita giveaway from Taco Bell also.

I guess they gave out to many "winner" notifications and a lot of them never received anything.

Ninja_G_Aidan3858d ago

Yes, that's the main one I remember! You're absolutely right. Nobody did get a Vita from those conning b*stards!

OldGirl3858d ago (Edited 3858d ago )

That was not Taco Bell, it was Burger King you're thinking of. *face palm*

The Vita was Taco Bell and some people did actually win one and receive theirs. Me and a friend of mine actually did that promotion and although I did not win, he won one and actually got it shortly after. I know others that actually got theirs as well, even some people on the PS blog for the PS4 promo, even got a Vita from the last one.

I know there were problems and I also knew people who won that didn't get anything. I think the system was handing out too many winner notifications to people who didn't actually win.

Whether you want to believe it or not people did get them.

I don't know how the Burger King promotion panned out but I know it was Burger King doing that promotion for winning a Wii U.

Nintendo has always done things with Burger King, while Sony does stuff with Taco Bell.

Ninja_G_Aidan3857d ago

...Same shitty food, same promotion, different console! That's still a mess up from their point though.
You probably work for one of these companies and promote that shit!

OldGirl3857d ago (Edited 3857d ago )

You're being an asshole. Was I a douche to you about it? No I simply said you were wrong.

So you get two different companies completely mixed up, instead of just admitting you were wrong, somehow I am the douche who works for them trying to lure you into buying this? Paranoid much?

I never said the promotion worked flawlessly, I even agreed with you it was a mess. I simply said some did receive them though. You're the ass just acting like because it didn't work for you, everyone else is a liar or works for taco bell.

What employee cares that much about promoting taco bell anyway. How stupid does that sound, unless they are paid to be in a commercial and I am definitely not getting pad to tell you this, no one cares about promoting it.

I don't give a rats ass if you try or not. If you read my previous comments on this page, you would know I can't even stand to eat this food. The only reason I even tried was for a damn Vita in the first place.

Shit I don't recommend anyone eat this food. The most I can say is give it to a dog or someone else willing to eat it unless it is just literally all you can afford.. I am not going to talk shit about someone because they can't afford better.

If I were a god damn employee I would probably be fired just for saying this, seeing as how intrusive companies are in just about everything you do in your day to day life now. People getting fired over twitter comments and shit...

Ninja_G_Aidan3856d ago

...No need to write a f*cking essay, b!tch!

XboxFun3859d ago (Edited 3859d ago )

Taco Bell is delicious! You cannot beat a steak mexi-melt with extra cheese! Not to mention a Taco Bell with a KFC combo! that is late night after club goodness right there.

This would be the only way I would get a PS4.
Good promotion Sony!

xHeavYx3859d ago

I agree that the food tastes good, but the ingredients... Better not even look at them

XboxFun3859d ago

I'm sure if we looked at the ingredients or saw the conditions of food factories for most of the foods we eat, we would fall to our knees in disgust.

This is one of the only times where ignorance is bliss.

medman3859d ago

Have you ever taken a look at what the FDA allows (within certain levels) in the food you buy in the grocery store? That list includes rat hair, maggots, insect eggs, and animal feces, among other vomit inducing items. Happy eating!!

FamilyGuy3859d ago

That's true about a million things though.
If it taste good, it's sterile/clean and doesn't kill me I don't really care how they filled my stomach.

I'm not gonna eat crappy tasting food just because it doesn't have fillers.
KFC > Store brand fried chicken
Tacobell > Del Taco

El_Colombiano3859d ago

I <3 Taco Bell and this is even more a reason to go again!

JoGam3859d ago

Once you thought it was safe to comment its not. Beware of the Taco Bell haters....lol

What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.

Cacabunga3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

A rumored game at a rumored show.. we’ve seen it all

TiredGamer3h ago

Agreed. The first remake was stylistically beautiful and a very noticeable improvement over the original in every regard. And it was reasonably priced and sustainably developed (i.e. not some mega big budget game that was do or die for the developer).

Zeke685h ago

Thanks for the spoilers... :(

RonnySins5h ago

Another day, another remake. Ugh!

SonyStyled4h ago

If you played the original print I can see your annoyance. I didn’t and probably a lot others the past 20 years.

Was it any good? Would you suggest playing the original print of 2, or suggest the remake? Just wondering because I didn’t play the originals as I had an n64 at the time

TiredGamer3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

I played the first remake and absolutely loved it. The quality of life and control improvements were very noticeable. I tried playing the PS1 original and gave up halfway through at the janky controls.

Expect the same for part 2. The PS1 version is janky as heck, but I would gobble up an improved remake day one.

The beauty of this kind of stuff is that I find myself enjoying more retro gaming today, so a relatively low budget classic remake (call it a single-A release) is exactly what is missing from first party releases in the modern age. I don’t want every game to be an unsustainable AAAA endeavor that is just overwhelming in every regard. Truly miss when game releases could be modest-sized surprises and still be commercially successful/viable.

Bring on more quality classic remakes!

Knightofelemia5h ago

Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.

Omegasyde4h ago

My bets on new Socom and/or Wolverine (since Deadpool 3 is dropping in the summer).

I think one after this state of play will be PS5 pro preorder

"Darkest Dungeon II" is coming to Playstation consoles on July 15th, 2024

"The Vancouver-based (Canada) indie games developer Red Hook Studios are today very happy and excited to announce that their roguelike /strategy/RPG “Darkest Dungeon II”, is coming to Playstation consoles (PS5 and PS4) via PSN on July 15th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

TwoPicklesGood5h ago

Don't sleep on this, it's a great day

Michiel198933m ago

I personally didn't enjoy 2 as much as I did 1. Actually didn't even finish it.
I do praise that they didn't just carbon copy the 1st game and added more of everything, but I think that during the process a lot of what made Darkest Dungeon appealing to put a ton of hours in, was lost.

The new mode does look cool and I will definitely jump back into it and try it out.
