Electronic Arts is at it again, continuing its Dante's Inferno marketing/PR-related mailbox assault.
Yesterday, a gigantic box cardboard box showed up. Inside that box was big and dirty wooden box. What was inside? Well, that's what the video is for. And well... yeah. I've got nothing.
The Fifth Cirle of Hell had to do with the Wrathful and the Slothful, if I recall correctly. How Rick Astley pertains to either of those, I'm unsure of.
There was a note in bottom that said something to the effect of "You have succumbed to WRATH, Dante's Inferno blah blah marketing blah", saw it on another fansite.
Well at least it wasn't bees or a big rubber dick wrapped i barbed wire and full of fake 'glow in the dark' maggots. Or a cotton ad. Or a fist size ball of pubic hair.
There's no marketing campaign that will surpass the creativity of Dante's Inferno. And I was expecting someone to pop out of their room when Nick was running through the hall with the box.
Also, I'm pretty sure it's wrathful, since you destroyed the box. And that it's another catch-22; destroy the box and you're wrathful; throw it away or just let it keep playing, and you're slothful.

Or at least had one...
It has to do with Rick Astley because it forced Nick to unleash his wrath on the box.
also, was that really worth two adds for cotton and another "go away click-able ad"? thank you google.
Yes, at least it wasn't CANCER.
Also, I'm pretty sure it's wrathful, since you destroyed the box. And that it's another catch-22; destroy the box and you're wrathful; throw it away or just let it keep playing, and you're slothful.
I would've just started dancing for five minutes to that, then open the box from the bottom. Would've saved you two minutes of smashing.
