Ubisoft (sort of) offers some interesting items on Amazon to promote Far Cry 2 photo

Looking for a gift for that special someone that has everything? Ubisoft has just the thing for you.

Hit up Amazon.com to pick up a flamethrower; a lightweight model that's only 60lbs when full and a dual tank design to ensure a steady stream of fire, this is the gift that keeps on giving. Or a mercenary, trained in a variety of martial arts and able to withstand torture for up to three days! (Female model available, but not shown.) Looking for something less violent for the adventures? Pick up the lightweight aluminum alloy glider!

OK, despite being listed, these aren't actual products -- they're simply being listed on Amazon to promote Ubisoft's Far Cry 2, which hit shelves on October 21. Really cute, Ubisoft. Now does anyone know where I can actually hire a female mercenary? (Having some neighbor problems.)

I didn't think they could actually sell a flamethrower on Amazon.

They shouldn't play with me like that. I have been looking for a good Flamethrower for my Zombie Apocalypse defense plan.

Now my family's going to die!!
