Weekend Destructainment: IT'S BURGER TIME!
Hamza CTZ Aziz07.19.08 - 6:43 PM 28 comments

 
This is the greatest spoof ever made of the worst trailer ever made. Spotted on Paul Soth's C Blog
 
The Destructainment continues on after the break with a song from Chrono Trigger blown on beer bottles. Then, check out the premier episode of Taco-Man the Game Master. Random Robot Intermission is next with the portable autonomous sentry gun. 
 
Next up, it turns out that Jack Thompson was right all along and he's our only hope for the future. Then it's a representation of how all the Sony fanboys felt when Final Fantasy XIII was announced for the Xbox 360. Then, check out just how horribly embarrassing the Guitar Hero: World Tour presentation at the Xbox 360 keynote was. The Destructainment ends with Mega64's recap of the first day of E3 2008.

Chrono Trigger played on beer bottles. Thanks, Tom!

Taco-Man the Game Master episode 1. Thanks, Sam! This has some good potential, but the random review of Killer Instinct hurt it. But it did make me go listen to the Killer Cuts CD again.

Random Robot Intermission: The portable autonomous sentry gun.

Jack Thompson was right! Only Jack can save us from the videogames.

FF XIII petition to keep the game exclusive to the PS3. It's fake, but you know there were plenty of people acting just like this when the news was dropped.

Guiter Hero: World Tour presentation. It's a tie between this presentation and the WiiMusic drummer guy as the worst thing from all of the keynotes at E3. Either way, Giant Enemy Crab and Ridge Rrracccer have finally been topped. Spotted on KamikazeTutor's C Blog.

Mega64 recaps the first day of E3. Spotted on Frank's C Blog.

The portable autonomous sentry gun. That is so cool. He will make loads of money with that. O_O...

Oh God, I thought XBox360 nerd videos were funny (guy with cardboard weapons, guy REALLY REALLY reviewing it), but this PS3 nerd REALLY takes the cake! He looks like he's ready to kill someone, but he can't just yet... he still hasn't level'd up his lvl 5 broad sword, and he's not a lvl 70 knight just yet.

No no no, the WiiMusic drummer was the best thing at E3 ever.

i'm pretty sure the guy who was doing the PS3 FFXIII video also did the voicing for this YTMND.

I actually felt bad for the guy in the GH: WT vid. The press seemed like a pretty tough crowd this year. I've heard applause and screaming for much lesser news.

Poor guy..making a fool out of himself and not even getting an applause on his way out :(

I suppose no one has told Dtoid yet that the Duke Nukem Trilogy trailer was fake?

Or: They probably already know and we are all just continuing in our laughter :D

I liked how they uncovered the truth that Fallout 3 is Halo 4.

So, it's official, then. The biggest wankers of E3 were Nintendo and Guitar Hero.

God damn it, that burgers thing totally kicks the shit out of the extended trailer I was going to make.

@ braulio09

I think they just edited out the clapping. The Jack Thompson video was great. Great destructainment this week!

Finally Burgertime is given the gravity it deserves. It is afterall, the monomyth of games. Every game since, distilled to its essence, and you're just trying to make your burgers before the hotdogs murder you.

Its also an allegory for class struggle:
