Vuvuzelas Show Up to Ruin Doom, Too

The noble vuvuzela horn now has another purpose beyond irritating people trying to watch the World Cup: It can kill cyberdemons, too!


If you've been one of the millions of people watching the World Cup in South Africa this month, you're probably familiar with the constant drone of five thousand vuvuzelas blowing in the background. They've been slightly controversial, to put it mildly.

But now you can put the vuvuzela to good use. Now, you can use it to murder demons on Mars!

The video you see is, of course, a mod of id Software's iconic Doom, showing us what happens when the BFG is replaced by BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. The results ain't pretty to look at - and they ain't much to listen to, either.

OH GOD MY EYES, EARS AND OTHER DAMAGEABLE ORIFICES.

Can you imagine playing that on YouTube with their Vuvuzela button!? Sweet zombie Jesus that would kill ME let alone Doom baddies.

 

[Grahav]

That was really mean to the demons.

 

[wooty]

Urgh, cant even escape these things playing Doom.

OT:nicely done with the vid, certainly is a weapon of mass destruction.

 

[Baby Tea]

Hahaha, that was awesome.
I mean, horribly annoying...but very funny.
You win this round, vuvuzelas....

 

[SharPhoe]

I'm not the only who thinks that, if you weren't actually watching the video, it would sound like death by bee swarm, am I?

 

[Bobic]

Man those things are so awesome.

I was listening to it through headphones (I'm at work) and when I pulled 'em off halfway through (for obvious reasons) I realized that from a distance it sounded EXACTLY like a bunch of angry bees!

As to the video.... I've done some ugly things to Imps. I've seen horrible things done to Imps by others. But this was just low.

 

[Snowden's Secret]

It's quite convenient the way most of the enemies die, as the blood mainly appears from the head area, giving the impression the sound actually melting their eardrums.

 

[Jared]

Oh wow...lol. I cant believe these things have gotten so popular...

 

[Hiphophippo]

Let me be the one to say that he picked that up where a chainsaw normally is.

 

[Mantonio]

I hate Vuvuzelas.

Which country invented them? Because that country shall be purged with Nuclear fire.

THUS SPAKE DARKSEID.

 

[Seatownstriker]

sounds like a bunch of angry Hornets.

 

[Billion Backs]

The rick-rolling boombox weapon in Doom was much better.

 

[Fallen-Angel Risen-Demon]

Ugh me too...
Unfortunetly it was plobaly some english football holigan that give our country a bad name...
blody chavs.

 

[The Great JT]

Vuvuzelas sound like a swarm of bees to me.

But yeah, they are all annoying as hell and people who blow them need to be shot.

 

[Deadlock Radium]

From elsewhere on the forums:

I laughed a lot at that one.

OT: Awesome mod.
"OH SHITE! WE'RE BEING INVADED FROM MARS!"
"BRING ME MY VUVUZUELA!"
*BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ*
"The invaders are gone, sir."
I can really picture that.

I'm so proud to be South African right now :')
