Quantcast



This is just one of those videos where saying anything at all will ruin what you’re about to see. The moral of the video: never invite people over that are really into volleyball into your home. 

And yes, this is an official ad for Ubisoft. They get paid to do this shit. I envy you so much Mega64.

I wonder if some of the younger gamers will get the Top Gun reference.

I don't see how you could find the clip funny without getting the reference.

If we start seeing a bunch of "thatz not how you playz vollyballz---layme" comments then we'll know.

Even picking that there was a topgun joke before the clip even started it still wasn't funny.

I'm a nerd, but I guess I just don't like nerd humour.

I want to do the stuff they used to. Back when they were underground.

Back when they were SOMETHING AWFUL. But now they're all INTERNET GAMING NICEGUYS. I hate INTERNET GAMING NICEGUYS.

'Back when they were underground'

God that's so gay. What you're trying to say is, back when I was one of the cool people that knew about them before they were popular.

Am I the only one who thought that wasn't funny? I get the Top Gun reference, even the poses they do but I still thought that was lame.

I was crying and laughing at the same time. It wasn't their best, but I thought it was kind of funny. I just felt awful for the guy getting his shit destroyed.

And I didn't get the Top Gun reference.

Although they did a good job with the Top Gun parody, this was lame. Even the ol' "let's get an old person swearing" joke was lame.

It reminds me of the stupid OS/2 commercials where all of the commercials talked about OS/2 but never once was there a screen shot or anything that convinced people to even look at it.

what in the holy name of crap do you have to take to come up with something like this?! it's so awesome it hurts!

@eskimo bob:

Nothing in particular. Just follow the pattern:

1. Parody another movie/TV show
2. Weak person tries to be in with the "cool" crowd
3. "Cool" crowd goes ape-shit on weak person
4. Very unlikely hero comes to the rescue of the weak character for supposed comedic effect

Hollywood's been doing this kind of shite for years.

That was easily the funniest thing I've seen in weeks.

I don't care about the game, and I generally detest volleyball (albeit solely because I am absolutely terrible at it), but they are both suddenly awesome to me.

I played HAWX at Comic Con, with the flight stick controller, and I must say that steering with the controller is really hard and frustrating.

I'd rather take my ride into Rogue Squadron's danger zone. (Please, someone make a new Rogue Squadron)

Lip rings do not look good on guys. Seriously, the whole time the video was playing I couldn't even pay attention to what was going on. I was thinking "is that a cold sore, or maybe some sweat or saliva that's reflecting the light? It couldn't possibly be a lip ring." Then the closeup shot, yup... it's a lip ring.

Then the video was over. Although I don't think a second viewing will be in my future. I don't want to accidentally see another piercing and my OCD will kick in as I determine if someone would really do that to their penis and miss the plot of the inane video again.

Brainderailment. i agree that they are similar, but i wouldnt worry too much, since Haze isnt much of a game in the first place. If it were a decent game, then I'd be more "hey wtf?"

They're both published by Ubisoft, anyway.
