Wizards & Cyborgs Unite To Accept A Giant Bomb Award

Added by Jeff Gerstmann on Feb. 13, 2009

Sharp-minded readers may remember that we closed out 2008 with our 50th Annual awards presentation, where we celebrated the best (and opposite-of-best) things to happen in video games throughout the year.

One of the most competitive categories was "Best Product From Someone We All Used to Work With." In the end, it was Rich Gallup who took the trophy with via a masterstroke--a video for something called Azeroth Advisor in which a wizard and a cyborg threw down like a lost scene from a sequel/remake to They Live... if that remake were made by T-1000s.

Congratulations to Ben and Rich! And now, Ben, please get back to making sweet icons for the upcoming achievement/trophy/attainment system we're incorporating into the site later this year! And Rich, go back to spying on Peter Moore to see if he ever kicks that 50-yard field goal!

(Oh, in case you missed it, here's the winning product.)

That's it. This is the best that has ever come from the internet. Look you GiantBomb.com you've now passed the greatest the internet has to offer in awesomeness, from youtube to facebook, from porno to email...you've done it...you have created what exactly the internet it here for.

Favorite line in that vid, "I'd like to thank my former colleauges who worked on some really, really, really amazing games this year, but really went it comes down to it just doesn't match up to a video that the two of us kinda worked on for a three day period." Amazing.
