Stopped watching at 35 seconds. It was actually kind of funny, reminded me of a Tim & Eric skit or something.

Meh, if you want truly amazing corporate videos it looks like you still have to rely on Wendy's.

What was so wrong with it? Nothing was shown that was new. They are trying to appeal to more people, doesn't mean anything. Notice every avatar was female. (Other than the gaming ones).

Remember those Wii ads with the grandparents playing Wii bowling, doesn't mean Nintendo's future is seniors (thought it oddly is since we are all getting older).

That's not as awesome as the Office XP three video series:

OK, maybe I'm stupid, but this is really bothering me now - How on EARTH do I VIEW the linked Kotaku article. Whenever I follow them, I just get a list of links to OTHER articles.

I gave up following the corporate/majority gaming trends years ago. This has been obvious many times for me. When my roommate bought a copy of Halo Reach while I picked Deathsmiles instead, and then proceeded to explain why it is a better game :lol:

Oh boy, did he hate that game. That was a stroke of genius gifting him that game. Seriously, he probably would have rather you shit on his dog/girlfriend/mother (delete where applicable) than have to play that game again.

Mr. Popo, you magnificent bastard.

Explain it to me, too. I think Reach > Deathsmiles easily.

Reach has a distinct lack of underaged girls in fetish clothing.
