Pizza Hut Tempts Gamers With a $10,000 Gaming Setup

Now when you are trying to decide which late-night temple of crusty dough and burnt cheese gets your dinner vote, there may be an extra moment's pause for Pizza Hut. Along with a free 30-day GameFly membership, you also have the chance to win the gaming setup of a decade. Including a Wii, Xbox 360, PS3, and a 60-inch plasma TV, this package would be sure to make any gamer's heart skip a beat. Unfortunately, it also means you have to break that typical gamer diet of soy and bean curd, good luck.

    Without Slashdot, I would have missed Pizza Huts' advertising campaign!

    Can you alert me next time Coke has one of those bottle-cap things? I always miss those...

    But this is an ad. Lets just call it an ad, or a "sponsored story" and move on. If you guys didn't get paid for this thing then that's even sadder. I don't mind the ads on /., it keeps things going, but please don't try to pass them off as content. There's nothing in this story that at all meets the (admittedly low) editorial bar for submissions here. Its product placement, pure and simple.

    The only problem with the promotion is you have to be able to actually purchase something from Pizza Hut.

    The last time I attempted to, my stomach leaped out of my mouth and dragged me pert damn near fifty miles - then proceeded to slap me around the head while burping vindictives that haunt me to this day.

    I learned a lesson that day, I found out it was more nutritious to suck pond scum from a fetid Florida swamp, then to attempt to consume anything that pizza hut calls a pizza.

    I need to start a therapy group.
