Oh, my, well... I didn't actually think they would take that seriously.

On a side note I am now off to scrub my eyes with bleach.

I'm amazed the world didn't explode from the pure awesome that was released by this event. That definitely brightened up my workday. Thank you Yahtzee for proving that with enough love and persistance even... ah screw it.

Hoooooolllleeeeeeeee shit. They did it, they fucking did it. This is just... awesome, so very, very awesome.

Though I'll never be able to run down a Manhattan street in Prototype without picturing Alex riding a unicorn.

The teams actually did this? You didn't just comb DeviantArt for very willing fans?

I like how in the end you're like "buy this one... and the other one".
He, he, he!

Never thought it would actually happen, but I'm so happy it did. Those two companies must have a lot of time on their hands.

Yahtzee, you have a helluva lot more influence in the gaming world than I previously thought possible; first Valve, now this...
wait what do you mean "first valve?"

I almost forgot about that at the end of the Prototype video. I couldn't stop laughing at the picture from Radical.

The correct choice was made in the end I believe.

I surprised they not only actually made the pictures but that they actually watched your review and took it seriously. 'Oh not that guy with a hat reviewed us and couldn't decided if we were better than that other game, lets pander to his desire to get a non existent prize.' Seriously I doubt Zero Punctuation actually helps or hinders anyone's games sales, other than a few people who were curious, like I bought Saints Row, because he said it was so much better than GTA, and it was but never mind. Zero Punctuation to me has always been a humorous little someone showing one mans opinions regarding the games he plays and it certainly gets this site more traffic, but I've never considered them to be serious review that would actually mean anything. He's like the AVGN or TGWTG, entertainers who enjoy ragging on something or other but who's opinions don't really affect the industry in which they review.

To give an answer to the both of you, when Yahtzee gave his overwhelmingly positive review of Valve's Painkiller, sales of that game tripled. And now the game developers are sending him pictures of their rival's character in women's clothing...
What will happen next?

Whether these events were because of an attempt to gain more recognition per game or proof some people in the gaming industry have a soul, one thing is clear.
This is fucking HILARIOUS....

The transvestial, super powered insanity could be expected. But rainbows? And unicorns? This is either a joint effort or some form of divine comedic intervention.

Beyond impressed that the companies actually did this. Well played on both parts and well played on Yahtzee's part for creating such a challenge.

Of course, this doesn't change the fact that I'm only going to get Prototype since InFamous has decided to be a PS3 exclusive and mine is a 360 household, but it does up the factor that if InFamous ever crosses over I will be first in line for a copy.
