is this the one from the 300 movie previews? if so, it's funny, cuz everyone was talking, and all of a sudden you see these square heads in a box thingy, and the entire theater became really quite.... weird....

The new box signals the end of civilization as we know it........at least thats how it would appear from this site. The crusher game is not too bad--but not very challenging.

Yeah, saw 300 last night and that ad played. Everybody was all about quiet murmuring afterward. I leaned over to the wife and said: "It's a Scion site". She just laughed.

I wonder if anybody checked it out after the movie...

Still, very odd commercial. Even I wouldn't have gone for it.

Some quotes picked up from elsewhere.

Hey guys, over at the Scion website, they're actually marketing the new xB as an urban utility vehicle:

"Upsize. That's what the all-new 2008 xB urban utility vehicle did. Bumped up all around from the wheelbase to the length to the width, the xB maginifies its appeal with a larger chassis to fit even more driving adventure. Characteristically distinctive, the xB asserts design elements that get noticed -- elongated wraparound headlamps, rectangular grille, pronounced fenders, tinted windows -- and features a lounge-like interior for total ride relaxation. Now equipped with a 2.4L dual overhead-cam four-cylinder engine for 158 horsepower, the 2008 xB stretches out on Super White, Classic Silver Metallic, Black Sand Pearl, Nautical Blue Metallic, Blackberry Crush Metallic and Hypnotic Teal Mica."

Upsize? NooooOOOoooo!!!! X@P

Default anyone recieved?

okay so i been playing around on this site got about 4,500 points and decided to check out the stuff you can purchase with your points... i snagged 1 xb entree for the 08 xb two cd visors a rubics cube and a keychain... says 6-8 weeks to recieve just curious if anyone has recieved anything as of yet? i know the release was before the 300 movie premiere cause ive seen that add on alot of movie previews over the past month.

so main question is has anyone recieved any rewards yet?

p.s. and for those that think the site is annoying then don't go to it.. i think its a interesting way to promote scions and a fun and interactive way to learn about scion not just the automotive side but the musical side as well. i frequent scion.com so maybe i am just different who knows.

I do the car crushers--but it is not super fast. I wanted to get the Home Theater system--but they are gone. Maybe try for the xBox system...........

I don't think they're letting people get the high end items. It looks like when you get close to getting something high in points, they make it unavailable.

I could be wrong...anyone get a high end item? Like the camera and so on?

GOOD WAY OF RACKING UP POINTS:

Watching a movie gives you 50 points. So go to "SCREEN CITY," watch all the movies (while you do real-life stuff in the background), and then go "explore" another city, which resets the point-earning capability. It only lets you do the 50 once per exploration, but you can go in and out as many times as you want.

Which is how I got 2000 points in one night. @_@ OH CRAP I'M SUCH A NERD...but i got the t-shirt :D :D :D And I only had to stay up to 2:00 a.m. to do it ^____^

I had around 20,000 points total. I have ordered two t-shirts in each color except white, so I should have 6 t's coming in someday
