Turns out that those achievements I pointed to last week were just the beginning. Starting this Wednesday we will all be able to judge whether the Doritos sponsored Unlock Xbox contest has resulted in a quality game. NinjaBee helped this game move from concept to completion so I'm anxious to see how they did with the dino-chasin', truck-drivin', dashin', and destructofyin' gameplay promised in the original concept. Will this game rise above its advergame birth or just become the next Yaris?
No word yet on if the game will be free or if it will be accompanied by other releases.
[Update]: The game will indeed be free.
(Note: Image is not from the final game but from the free PC demo that was created as a test concept before NinjaBee was given the reigns.)

I like Yaris >:(
IMO it's the best advergame ever.
Point me to another one if you don't think it is.

Doritos is the worst potato chip franchise ever, I'm serious. It's also the cheapest though.
Well least at we got something good from the Doritos company.

Doritos does mainly make nachos, yes, but it also manufactures potato chips.
