EA Rickrolls Yahtzee

[j1-2themax]

Wow, just... wow. I would love to see how that affects his review of Dante's Inferno. Or Yahtzee's revenge on EA.

 

[Rect Pola]

Oh you know it's on now. Actually, I don't think Yahtzee has ever been that especially scornful of EA. No more than any other developer that makes games he doesn't like with flawed implementations. If anything, it's because they just do so many of them. Still it's nothing like his George Lucas or Harmonix hate.

I wonder if it would burn them more to not say or do anything about it. Deflating an potential rivalry to them simply being jerks.

 

[Susan Arendt]

would it not have been simpler to remove the music makerand remove the batteries? but then again: smashie smashie... XD

The music maker was at the bottom of the box under several layers of wood and stuff. There was no way to get to it other than smashing through the wood.

 

[ben---neb]

Ha ha ha ha. I will not be getting the game.

ps. the above comment is not funny, meaningful or in any way enlightening.

 

[Mr. Shoggoth]

"Besides, it's not every day you get to see Yahtzee smash something to bits with a hammer."

Yeah, that's only on Wendesdays.

*drumroll*

 

[CosmicCommander]

Amazing. I would pay good money to see a video of it.

I quote thou for their employment of truth.

 

[Doctor_Insano]

i guess it was either use the hammer or electrocute it in a tub of water with an old toaster.

 

[NoriYuki Sato]

alright, this pretty much has to be the greatest win ever known to mankind..the basher of all bashers...just got bashed for bashing, how is that not epic?

on a side note, sorry Yahtzee, but you know it was awesome

 

[Drakey]

Thumbs up for Mega Publishers feeling the need to Trojan Horse you the old fashioned way. What a compliment it must be to have EA put such effort into 'sendin YOU a message' there Yahtzee. You know your the one to infuence when they come knocking on your doo with an effort Kudos

 

[Random Argument Man]

In short: EA is saying "We dare you" to Yahtzee.

 

[Triple G]

Lol. At least there is ONE clever person working at EA. The one, who came up with this joke. If you go to hell for this crap then I shall dine in hell after my life.

 

[ssgt splatter]

Wow. I would've loved to see a video of this but sadly they said their video crew was out at the time. Ok, now there are 9 circles of hell right? So then there's still 4 more publicity stunts to go.

 

[v3n0mat3]

Man I wish I was there to watch it!

 

[AppleaDay]

This is probably the best thing I've read all week.

 

[Sixties Spidey]

Well, it does kind of fit him. Seeing as he's basically an angry British man who cuts off a game's balls in his reviews...

 

[beldaron]

yeah i've been rickrolled b4 but not quite so elaborately well done to EA for the original idea

 

[Lemon Of Life]

Nice, really clever guys, well done.

 

[notsosavagemessiah]

genius. plain and simple. hahahaha

 

[Sethzard]

That is actually a good publicity stunt. I would love to see that video if it was made.

 

[badkarma9924]

wow... just wow. EA has turned me into a believer. I will actually buy the game when it comes out. Fantastic.
