Legit Reviews has an article posted today on the AMD Reality Check Challenge demonstration we had on display at the AMD [H]ardOCP FX GamExperience 2012. It was a blind test that pit an AMD system against an Intel system, letting attendees decide which system they preferred based solely on gameplay experience.
The Pepsi Challenge has been an ongoing marketing promotion run by PepsiCo since 1975. It all started when a Pepsi employee setup a table with two blank cups: one containing Pepsi and one with Coca-Cola. Shoppers were then encouraged to taste both colas, and then select which drink they prefer. Then the representative then revealed what brands were in each cup. At the end of the day the public was doing a blind taste test and the company was getting a consensus of what brand was preferred by more consumers. Over the years this test has been copied by thousands and today AMD is putting their own twist to the challenge down in Dallas, Texas for the FX GamExperience.
