The best fucked up PR stunt since Dante's Inferno... It's Bulletstorm's wad of meat!

[Funkiest Monkey]

In order to promote Bulletstorm, packets of meat (well, spam.) have been sent to video game media people.

Within this yummy, yummy* spam, is stuff such as dogtags and teeth. Note the name on the packet: "Combo Fertilizer".

How would you Escapists feel if this turned up at your doorstep?

*Probably isn't yummy, yummy. Or edible.

I'd lol. Be a bit grossed out at first. But lol because it's what Bulletstorm is all about.

 

[Gralian]

Well it certainly beats bribing reviewers and spending thousands on hyping something up to the moon.

And it... makes me want to play Bulletstorm.

 

[-Seraph-]

I would laugh my ass off. It's gross but really really funny at the same time.

 

[Kyuubi Fanatic]

Fucking. Awesome!

Never even heard of Bulletstorm so far but now I want to go buy it

 

[Dr. wonderful]

...The heavy new sandvich meat?

 

[Sonicron]

Fun. Looks like the folks in the EA marketing department haven't lost their edge.
At some point during the marketing campaign for Dante's Inferno I resolved to buy the game because I felt those witty bastards had earned my money. If they keep this up with Bulletstorm they'll pull it off a second time.

Not to mention the game looks fucking awesome...


It's like Gears meets Borderlands!

 

[tlozoot]

It'd be a toss-up between being repulsed or thinking it's really cool.

 

[The DSM]

Would be amazed by the creativity.

That's REALLY creative PR, I give who ever thought it up credit.

 

[Amnestic]

FREE MEAT!

I mean, normally game developers/publishers send gifts like special editions or copies of the game or whatnot, but these guys are sending me dinner.

How awesome is that?

 

[Judgement101]

I. Want. One. Now.

 

[Keava]

I would of course start a food fight with random people on the street using the package.... Then i guess some very polite people dressed in white would give me a long sleeved shirt and put me in a cozy room with nice and soft walls and no door knob on my side.

That sounds horrible.

I'd probably toss it in the garbage - minus the goodies.

It sounds horrible to you, it sounds great to me.

 

[Lost In The Void]

Alright if I wasn't already excited for the game, that added to it, damn that was funny and gameplay is looking fun too so it might end up being win-win

 

[SalamanderJoe]

BBQ Bulletstorm Burgers!! (25.99? Bit steep for meat isn't it? Or is that dollars? I don't know the cash conversion...)
