When did energy drinks become a cultural thing? A few days ago in Germany, FPS Brain XB200 Liquid was revealed to the videogame masses, eager for an edge. The drink is being touted as the “world’s strongest energy drink” and we’re being told it “drastically prolongs the onset of gamer’s fatigue.”
The drink is made from guarana, and apparently a ton of it as the press release clearly states that the recommended daily intake is “half a vial.” In addition to firing off massive amounts of neurons, it can also be used as a dietary supplement. Although, the calorie count wasn’t specifically mentioned.
Is there really any need for this? Do any of you find yourselves lumped over your keyboards wishing you had an energy drink to toss down your throat to relieve your “gamer’s fatigue?”
