Those pills are just lame vitamin pills that throw in some caffeine. Thats pretty much what I was expecting. Actually, these look pretty good to me. If I were to take vitamins, I would prolly try these out (because I could take it before school...)

Woah...never mind. According to Erowid (my favorite website...other than OnRPG of course), 5000 MG of caffeine is almost a lethal dose...are you sure those numbers are right? O__O;

I think they meant to say 5.00 mg of Caffiene.

I wouldn't take this. Probably overpriced when I just need canned coffee or Red Bull.

This product is specificly created gamers. Presenting "FpsBrain". It's some kind of capsule/tablet medicine drug for improving in your gaming performance.

When come across these kind of stuffs, sometimes you don't know to laugh or cry about it.
Best scenario is that it actually works, worst scenario is that it might have adverse effect on the consumer. Maybe side effect or even addiction; nobody knows for sure.

Anyone had tried this shit on for size?
How come we can't just call this shit Jolt any more?! Do you guys understand? This is a cheap, generic, and highly caffeinated fizzy beverage.

It's like when Mountain Dew did it's ****ing "gamefuel" thing. Game fuel? You need fuel to lounge back and point a ****ing cursor and press a button until some one dies or some thing explodes?

Seriously, there's a reason the market calls you idiots consumers, because you'll consume any bull shit marketing scheme that appeals to you and spend more than the product will ever be worth.

Nothing like an overpriced Placebo to steal your money. This product is epic fail. I mean really... just get a multivitamin from the local drugstore or supermarket for probably 90% less cost. That 90% less cost can buy a ton of redbull or coffee, or even the most epic nerdfuel.. JOLT.

Hrmm come to think of it, there are websited dedicated to caffeinated products. I can't remember the site off hand anymore, but they offered caffeinated chocolates, hard candies, gum, soap, lotion, candles.... CANDLES... WTFOMG!

It's a PILL! Who's the idiot now? (kidding)

Seriously though, I only drank Game Fuel cuz' it tasted good. It was roughly the same price as regular MD, so hell, why not? I didn't use it for gaming though, I just used it as soda, which I drink for the caffeine. I'm a caffeine addict. If I don't have at least one soda a day, I get a headache, but I've been trying to cut back. *ahem* ANYWAYS, this product still remains epic fail.

And what's with Red Bull being so popular? I personally think it tastes like shit... Get some Monster, put a small amount of Rum in it(NOT enough to get you drunk, just a bit), and you've got a good drink! Though, I've realized that you can get the same taste by adding a small amount of Fun Dip to Monster. Odd...

this reminds me of the caffiene pill i once got in a issue of pc gamer which said that it was equal to 5 cups of coffee.

there was a small article where they tested it on one of the dudes and it had a description of his gaming performance after each tablet he took.

after 3 he tried playing CoD:UO but was jittering around and exited the game because the server was taking too long to load.

then at 6 pills he played quake online and they described him as a gaming god whose fingers glided over the keyboard in a flurry of rocket combos and screams of pleasure.

made me laugh.

Interesting. Caffeine usually makes you jittery so your aim would be off a bit. At least in Counter-strike:source a lot of caffeine makes me headshot way less LOL. Now, if I were to 'smoke' something before gaming, I pretty much become a superstar in CS:S. Getting a little paranoid works wonders in that game!

:P
