Quantcast



This morning’s Army of Two: the 40th Day trailer is a return to the ridiculous. It features the functionally retarded (and venerable) Salem and Rios during a release day event at a GameStop.  If you care to take a peek at the footage you’ll see one of the two (a) bashing a cash register (b) attacking a woman (c) playing Rock Band (d) and even signing autographs.

Speaking of GameStop, there’s a deal going on in regards to new Army of Two. If you trade in two games, you’ll get 40 dollars towards the shooter. Nice, right?

Army of Two: the 40th Day hits January 12th for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

I really have nothing more to say other than, Oh my god. There's no describing what I felt while watching this.

I was mildly entertained which is saying a lot for a GameStop commercial.

He doesn't attck the woman. He just stupidly assumes she'll be able to support his weight which almost accidently kills her via a concussion or smothering. She seems to think it was flirting though. Probably because she works at game stop.

I wonder how often the "pay with a pile of change" thing happens, given that they thought to make fun of it. I worked at GameStop a few years ago, and some douche canoe pulled it on me right before closing one night, for our last PC copy of Star Wars Battlefront. Thought it was an isolated incident, but maybe not.

Regarding that trade-in deal, Gamestop had a similar one with Darksiders, which was sweet. 25% extra for trade-ins if the money was going towards Darksiders.

I love EA Montreal's approach to marketing this. It almost makes me want it.

Ok, I found it amusing, but come on, would Salem and Rios really want all those people to move aside so they could sign a copy of the game for that fugly chick? The chick he falls on was actually hot, the other looks like she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every single branch on the way down.

@moominsean: If by today you mean 2002, then yes.

Other than that, other than being entirely awkward corporate commercialism, I was amused by this. Which as ArrestedDevloper said, that's saying a lot for Gamestop commercials.

2 "Select" games, so probably any game that I paid $60 for last month? SWEEEET! I wonder what the trade in value is for the (bloody) used condom Gamestop almost forgot to use while anally raping my finances.

That generated some major lolz. IT also generated some major wrist slitting.

I remember when Gamestop used to give you the game for free for a couple of trade ins, instead of still having to shell out $20+...

those were good days...

a year ago...

Gamestop does that deal for a lot of the new releases.

Better, considering it's a Gamestop ad, but not as great as the Mass Effect 2 ad they have airing right now.

I guess it's good they have a sense of humor about people saying the first game sucked? I guess?
Not sure if the song was funny or a little sad (for them).
I liked the first one...but between these dorky ads and the actual demo...well, I'm worried. I'm renting when back before I'd seen anything about this sequel I was set to buy.

It argues that a Greek naval blockade during the Trojan War kept Trojans on the European shore from intervening, and that they subsequently escaped to Italy where they were called Etruscans.
