Gamers sure are a dedicated bunch of people, aren't they? I have been a self-proclaimed Internet addict for years now, but projects such as the real-life Team Fortress 2 dispenser above never cease to amaze me.
According to the dispenser's creator, who goes by the name of Drastisch, "it features a 15″ TFT display, a fire extinguisher, cupholders for two emergency beers (instead of ammunition), and three openable compartments." Not too shabby, huh? Especially the part about beer.
But what does Drastisch store in those compartments, you ask? Why his modem, router, answering machine, and phone, of course! I think it's neat he was able to not only build a kickass replica of an in-game object, but he made it functional, too.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

I wonder if the Fuel Gauge changes depending on how much is currently stored inside of it?
In games like CSS and CoD4 I can understdand; no one wants to play the terrorist. But Red and Blue...
