Xbox Live Originals contest ends on a puppy-chokingly unfunny note

3:25 AM on 09.11.2007, Nex 98 comments

     Xbox 360

The above video is the winner of the Xbox Live Originals contest, a showcase for the finest in whatever the hell that thing up there is. Microsoft was offering entrants a chance for a $100,000 budget and a six episode run of downloadable shows on the Xbox Live Marketplace, and the above clip -- entitle Bouchedags -- beat out a field that must have consisted of video clips of women stomping kittens to death and the atrocities comitted during the Rape of Nanking.

I have to say people, I consider myself a clever, entertaining person and that clip up there made my chest hurt. Not in a metaphorical way either, it actually damaged my sternum and corroded my right aorta. It was so painfully unfunny that I've developed a heart murmur and may one day die of complications related to the aforementioned condition. If only Microsoft didn't see fit to encourage the most idiotic sector of the current MTV demographic -- the ones whose parents saw fit to buy them video cameras -- I might live to see my own children attend college, drop out, develop drug habits and die of heart-related illness courtesy of Microsoft's next community generated content contest Xbox Live's Smash Your Genitals With A Hammer And Mail Us The Results Contest.

Look for this "show" to appear on the XBL Marketplace shortly.

Sorry for the double post but, remember that Monty Python sketch The Funniest Joke in the World? This is the bizarro version of that.

Goddammit.

A girl that I was very briefly involved with knows these guys and was on their show once.

I know they're from around here.

Perhaps I can find them

As an alternative title for the show, I offer the following:

Fuckfaces
Asscocks
Buttpirates

Pretty much anything that would make people NOT watch this crap.

Did they make a reference to "Time and Eric Awesome Show Great Job!"? That series kicked ass and was actually unique.

This is the price we pay for originality sometimes. Thank Youtube and the falling price of digital cameras for this.

They were better off remaking Perfect Strangers, now THAT be some quality television!!!!

My god. I could only watch until the end of the theme song (1:26). It's just so...god. This video makes me want to poop. Like, maybe that will get this out of my system somehow. Either that or start binge drinking.

I'm watching this whole thing to show my support for Nex.
For the record, it's much better if you scroll to the bottom of the comments, mute your sound, and kill yourself.

I made it to 2:32 and had to stop.

I'm sorry, I'd take the full footage of the Rape of Nanking over this, including the boring parts, I dunno, the bits where Rabe's on the toilet or something.

Nex... that was possibly one of the most glorious rants I've ever witnessed. I might bookmark this story just so I can come back and read it every once in a while.

Bouchedags indeed.

@Angry Irish

...you did not just say that "Tim & Eric's Awesome Show" is good. I will hunt you down and end you. That is a terrible show, worse than Tom goes to the Mayor. It's like... Ren & Stimpy weirdness, but without the funny or even a vague sense of plot.

i have been to the full 17 minutes end...and come back.

however, only to warn that you will lose a piece of your soul. don't do it. though nex somehow survived unscathed, i have lost the ability to speak like the little boy in the 1994 Susan Sarandon movie "the Client".

and also the will to live. i now have Apathy Syndrome. thanks nex.

Shouldn't we all get a share of that $100,000 for having to suffer through this piece of crap that Satan himself shat into the internet? I went through the whole thing.

I don't know about you guys, but after watching it I had a moment of blindness. My eyes were trying to adjust from shit vision to normal vision.

I'm listening to this as I post and I think I'm dying. Where did our generation go wrong!? They could have just given the Pure Pwnage guys the money and put the shows on XBL, because this is.... there are no words for this. Well, maybe Nex's words. That was an amazing rant.

I can't believe I just watched this instead of playing Quake Wars :(

wow. you guys really do not like this show, eh? i can tell how you all pretty much copied and pasted each others response and called it original. so you are trashing it. cool. did any of you enter? no? then that must mean you cannot come up with anything better (here is where you get all angry and emo at me). who are you people? anybody? anybody that knows anything? ..thought so. microsoft liked the show. they chose it as a winner over 200+ pilots. and also keep in mind... this episode cost less than $100 bucks (this is where you all say something like 'well that was a waste of 100 bucks!' or 'it looks like it only cost a dollar!' because you are all so damn predictable). It is a pilot. if you knew anyhting, the idea of a pilot is to make content with hopes of people recognizing potential. it is not a final product. it is a test piece. go learn something and get off these lame ass forums.
