    For a game promotion I have to admire them for at least thinking outside the box. Also 0:36-0:42 is badass.

    None of those swears were scripted. That's just Jaffe.

    That's pretty funny. 
     
    Really great how Jaffe curses up a storm in this. It's almost like they realize that's part of the Jaffe appeal. Weird that they'd realize that. haha

    Hell yes. I think it's time that David Jaffe perhaps begins his own Kickstarter fund. Whatever it takes, this must happen.

    OH JESUS TITTY FUCKING CHRIST YES!

    Jaffe knows what we want.

    Also, the website's video is uncensored...in case anyone wants that. The censoring definitely made it funnier...as it always does.

    Giving nerds directional control over a real gun via the internet seems like a recipe for disaster.

    Oh wait. You think that we're going to try to shoot at one of the people running this ad campaign? BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! That's actually not a bad idea.

    If the gun is actually an m249 (FN Minimi), I wonder who's going to be loading all the boxes, switching the gas regulator when it gets fouled, and changing the barrels... eager to see this

    Hmm I don't find shooting a truck by clicking a mouse button appealing at all. Shooting holes into a truck with a heavy mg sure does sound like fun (and really exhausting), but only if I'm the person holding the gun. 
     
    It's good that people actually seem to think this is cool, though. Hopefully that promotion will sell them a few additional copies.

    The C4 comes into play when they choose the 3 people to do the "kill shot" tomorrow. But for now people just firing the gun at targets, some of them explosive i do believe. With new targets put up on the hour. Testing the gun now, still not being fired by people online.

    also, BEST VIDEO GAME PROMOTION EVERRRRR!

    I've been watching it for awhile now. They keep it interesting with the ice cream truck spinning around and different type of targets with hidden explosives. They've been running into some trouble, like when the truck caught on fire and they had to quickly shut down the three guns and go running out there with fire extinguishers. They managed to get it out.

    Sweet Tooth's truck burning to the ground before it blows up with C4 isn't part of the plan.

    Coming up on the final 3 hours till they blow it, even though it's already swiss cheese. Been enjoying to watch, especially with Jaffe giving it colorful commentary.
