Japanese trailer for Vita game Open Me is so creepy
You may remember our preview of Japanese Vita game Open Me! from Tokyo Game Show back in September. It's a pretty weird game, so I guess this new and really weird Japanese commercial fits. The commercial for this touchscreen box opening game features a young girl and a batsh*t crazy guy going nuts over a Vita. Expect some sweat, heavy wind, erratic slow motion inserts, strange facial closeups, and lots of English language whispering. The guy looks like he has the poop the entire time, and the girl just flat out creeps me out. Stay crazy, Japan. Did you know?
