Considering the promotional theme for Munch's Oddysee will be based around consumer products and marketing... that is a very good point Melvin, I had never throught of relating the new Munch logo to Mountain Dew... but they style and can color are similar.

The cans are actually just part of the promotional image IMO.

Fair enough if OWI want to use consumer products to help promote their game, but the main characters are drinking their own game? Where's the logic there? That's like me saying "Gee I might go have a can of Pacen", since Munch is, in a sense, drinking himself. In my opinion, go back to the syringe logo and everyone is happy.

agreed. syringe fitted more with munch's storyline, although the plot seems to have moved away from that a bit as the game developed.
