Like Band Aid, Only With Gaming Executives

Oh, you miserable buggers! O.o

That was hilarious - needs more of those cute Betheseda boys, but awesome nonetheless. :)

Jaw dropping open...and never closing

Gouge my fucking eyes...

I am just a little more dead inside after watching this...

DredPriest

@Varone: ears bleed? YES!

;.;

Britain's got talent alright.
So much untapped potential!

@shaunomacx@onelastcontinue.com: Not only did I watch the first video, but I then watched this one, in full knowledge that I would get the same song. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment...

R. Lee Ermey Improv* WHAT IS THIS MICKEY MOUSE SHIT??

all this video actually is, is just the old videogame clone of a music video from the '90's same song and all. A boyband called '5ive' like that makes any sense. They were shite then and still are now :(

+ Watch video

@FannyRatLove: Working with something you like that also in fact pays quite well equals loser now? Sounds like jealousy :P

@Elchris: I always think that when I'm getting paid to take a customer out for drinks... I mean... business interaction

SansSanity

Holy fuck... and I wonder why my friends think all games industry workers are losers.

Oh... my... god...

Well... uh...

Um...

Props for them not continuously cracking up while performing this. Seriously though, WTF!?

It saddens me to think that everyone in this video was probably being paid while filming.

@ClockOut: Agreed - pure awesome!

mortenfriis

@shaunomacx@onelastcontinue.com: Erm...that's exactly what it was supposed to be...I think you missed the point. It's industry leaders, having a laugh in a funny pop video...are another one of those sense-of-humor-ectomy success stories?

@Zootroy: Yes, GH:WT vs RB was a nice touch, fist in the air and all.

JTF

@Zootroy: I agree with you. I was laughing my head off watching that thing.

Just when you thought the video game industry lost it's sense of humour...

Oh deal lord. You got to be kidding me. That was horrible.

nightwheel

Those whacky Brits XD what'll they think of next? Man this is messed up and hilarious at the same time

Deathbearer

how did this come to pass?

Hahahahahah. Tears of laughter. :')

Serious question: Can you imagine any American company executives doing this? Have to love the British.

As for the argument on pay, who cares they had some fun and produced some laughing material. Who says no to comedy?

This video is clearly all kinds of awesome, why are people complaining?

ClockOut

The fuck is wrong with you people?

Someone says they're getting paid (UNLIKE REAL ROCKSTARS YES), and it makes them "feel" "sad", though has no actual evidence for such a claim, while the rest of you simpletons feel as if EVERY SINGLE FUCKING THING ON THE INTERNET owes you a favour.

Well I'll say this:

It's nice to see the games industry have some fun, and get out of its shell a bit more. It's nice to see a video about the games industry and only see people.

I even liked the RockBand/Guitar Hero rivalry set-up - PR hardly ever dares reflect the view from the public.

And I also like how different groups of people from different publishers can come together and not join in this stupid fucking console war that you esteemed commenters so often like to agitate.

I also found it funny.

Zootroy

Its like a horrible train wreck, you can't look away and you feel sad for all involved.

EternalStar

Are they really singing? And who wrote this? I guess it could've been worse. They could've released this 7 years ago when hip-hop was still big and rapped it all instead.

LetItRane

@ThursdayNext: nooo

its not...its sad

pathetic

and a waste of my brain storage space

@Zootroy:
I couldn't have said it better.

fronsac

that was too painful.

trevortibble

Could this be the best thing to ever come out of the gaming industry ever?

Yes.

PR_Flak

This officially replaces Infogrames' "Rocks My World" as worst ever, doesn't it?

PR_Flak

these people are in charge of my games?

*unplugs the ps3 and blows the dust off of Settlers of Catan*

@ClockOut:

It's the internet.

Awesome video, looking forward to a Kojima gangsta rap à la Natalie Portman.

Holy fucking shit that triggered a flashback to those school spirit assemblies that got you out of class for an hour back in high school.

Tyr4nt

@LetItRane: no theyre not singing, its a five song from back in the day. sum1 posted it further up

@stupid_mcgee: eating cake with GLaDOS: I seriously will agree with you on this one.

WTF?

@Yin: No, I just need new friends.
