Start Your Day Proper-Like With EVE Online Rap Video

The craziest EVE-related thing since that guy took all that ISK and ran off.

If you want to wake up like I do, I recommend rolling out of bed, go immediately to your computer, rub your eyes until you can see straight, and check your e-mail.

Actually, forget the e-mail part, because checking mine led to this rap video about EVE Online, done for the players of EVE Online by some of the CCP folks that work on EVE Online.

  

  
Oh, I should probably tell you that there's cursing in this video, in case that's a deal breaker. Also, it confirms something I've expected for quite some time... you do not want to eff around with the dudes that make EVE Online. This is probably the greatest company-produced song/rallying cry since that "Infogrames Rocks My World" joint that got dropped back when there was still an Infogrames.

...OK, fine, here's that, too. Only one I found in an embeddable format also has dudes from an IGN podcast covering the song after the original plays... and that's also pretty good.

Wonderful, especially the EVE one. I shall continue to think about buying that game and probably not following through on it due to how scary it is.

If EVE involved more of, you know, throwing together rap crews to tout the benefits of ones space frigate, then I'd be all over it.

Gamesradar has brought up the Infogrames 'theme' at least 5 times, and it's funny as hell each and every time.
 
...gamesradar.com, talkradar...
 
EDIT: Just watched the CCP vid. I thought you were talking about a rap dedicated to them, not MADE by them. Wow...

Does anyone else get the impression the Iceland guys are way more into it than the other teams? Loved it.
