the dumbest, weirdest xbox to exist probably

look i really thought i was gonna have time to make a bigger video this month that did not happen so earlier this year i took a pilgrimage to philadelphia with a group of friends to attend too many games and the annual pet expo the second day there you know we're all walking around the floor looking for gaming when i see someone out corner my eye big and green and you know me i like green so i go over there that shit's the xbox xbox is not lime green it is black white green oh that that's that's a limited edition mountain dew xbox i bought it on the spot look the night before we all got fucked up at a youtube party and a couple of my friends accidentally accused doug walker of pissing on the floor long story look what i'm trying to say is i'm pretty sure i was still kind of drunk and all i could think about was mountain dew xbox and doug walker on a normal day i might not have blown 400 on a color swapped version of a console i already own but you know what i don't regret it for a second because the more i learn about this thing the more i love everything about it let me tell you the history behind this fat ugly boy is incredible so the thing about the limited edition mountain dew xbox is that you you couldn't just buy it or win it the only way to get one was by purchasing mountain dew for mountain dew points for the life of me i cannot find any solid definitive information on how many points any given purchase of mountain dew would accrue but i do know that the console required 550 points the only figure i've so much as heard is one point per two liter bottle which if true would mean that you would have to spend upwards of nine hundred dollars for the privilege of having the chance to buy one for 100 and they didn't even cover shipping adjusting for inflation that is a 1500 total and that's not even the best part it was a limited run so having points did not guarantee you a console even if you had the money if you weren't one of the first thousand people to buy one you basically just dropped 900 for no fucking reason at all you were fucked fifteen hundred dollars for a console that was green and that's it by that metric i got this thing for a fucking steal i heard somewhere that it's sold out by the end of day one i hope everyone else likes their mountain dew hell there's a subreddit dedicated to locating and documenting the ones left i i've seen mint consoles in the box selling for more than 2 000 like what god the 2000s were fucking dumb [Music] what's up i forgot my do [Music] this will be very quick i promise adam and eve is sponsoring this video they make sex toys and they've they're they're coming back fun fact both my mom and dad have independently brought up to me my working relationship with adam and eve followed by a personal anecdote i'm gonna put a big funny bullet in my head visit adamandeve.com and use codenoodle for 50 off for one thing and free shipping to hell and purgatory some exclusions apply you know i still haven't even told you about this xbox specifically after digging through the thing's memory i am convinced that not a single byte of data from its 8 gig hard drive has been deleted ever this limited edition mountain dew xbox has 17 years of gamer history tucked away here's i figure halo 2 came out only a few months after this version of the console and considering how halo 2 was literally a historic event there is absolutely no way on earth that the person who owned it did not use the green box to be the green man boot up the game the first thing you'll notice is that it's running version 1.1 meaning that either someone installed the halo 2 map pack or the game was auto updated on xbox live check the map files it's got all the dlc let's fucking go there's also like two dozen existing profiles on the thing already we got guys like draco master slayer kaboo oh dr skull gandhi the taliban me i feel like a goddamn archaeologist you you can actually piece together little bits of history from this whoever me is they're the only person on the console to have beaten the game on legendary lesson for the patients at one point someone must have tried to get their mom to play based on the heart emblem and the username ma they never made it past the intro though mcgringo was absolutely an xbox live user i checked and their profile still exists as a relic from the 360 era i can't show you some of my favorites because i looked them up and not all of them are relics a lot of these gamertags have achievements in newer halo games hell there's a couple that recently played infinite that makes me so happy and i couldn't even tell you why we're still not done though halo 2 can only teach a man so much the rest of the hard drive tells a bigger story this thing's save files are a trip i mean i like to think i'm pretty familiar with the xbox's catalog but there's shit in here i've never even heard of you got everything from madden to burger king from call of duty to hummer from most wanted to the bible game by far the thing that takes up the most space though is the saved music for those unaware the xbox could not only play cds but save them onto its hard drive which was extremely cool at the time let's play a game what kind of music do you think was saved on a limited edition mountain dew xbox in 2004 no really pause the video give me a guess in the comments okay cool you're all wrong it's only christian music we got a fucking hill song we got four straight hours of emotional prayer music that was absolutely ripped off limewire we got preschool choir instrumentals [Music] this is when i realized holy fucking christ almighty hanging on the cross this xbox at some point in its life retired from gaming to serve as a thousand dollar church cd player how how long was it there for how did it get out i must have spent some time at the youth group right like like a split screen machine explains the bible game i don't know if i can keep this like like i don't think i deserve it who who could be trusted with ownership of the limited edition mountain dew xbox follow the mountain review the only show on the internet that makes you say wow this man is wasting his time his resources and his hairline hi brandon check your mail it's not a bomb [Music] [Applause] [Music] you
