I was watching Comedy Central and they just reran the World of Warcraft episode followed by the Guitar Hero episode. I can't help but think this will do well for VUG/Activision after their merger completes and Blizzard Activision shares go up. Possibly coincidence, but I doubt it.

I wonder how often this kind of thing happens without people even noticing.
 
After watching the Guitar Hero episode I made up my mind to buy it. Don't regret it, though.
 
I think they're just trying to get people to watch when they aren't making new episodes. :D
 
lots of there episodes are based on current events and new movies and fads. i mean they did one over the day after tomorrow

Rarely do they actually use the brand names and work with the game devs though, as is the case with both of these video-game related episodes.

After watching Guitar Hero episode; I made up my mind and played at my local Best Buy but, there's nothing anyone can do to have be buying a console.
I'm going retarded; playing so many PC games now, adding a console will definitely grant me the divorce.

I played the Deep Purple's "Smoke On The Water" (Whoever rocked in the 70's knows what I'm talking) And it was the most fun thing I ever did at Best Buy. People gathered around, women kissing and asking for my dial (I said I was married) but these women take "No!" for an answer. Or, maybe, they gathered around to watch a black dude play "Smoke On The Water". But they did.
 
I saw Shatner advertising WoW last night come to think of it. SHATNER.
 
Those have been my two favorite episodes of late actually--the WoW one especially.

And as much as I love Shatner, I must say that Mr. T's ad kicks the living crap out of Shatner's. :laugh:
 
very clever marketing
kinda like adding subliminal messages
 
You guys know that you can get Guitar Hero for the PC now, so no console is neccesary? Anyways, I hate the WoW ads. 'You can be anyone you want' is a total load of shite. Now, that is true in games like PRE-CU SWG and EVE online, but WoW is based solely on combat, and to get higher levels of the crafting you have to.. guess what? Kill things. This is not neccesary in these other MMO's. Plus, Mr. T is a hacker. What kind of impression does that have on kids? Hmmm? We'll be seeing Mohawk classes by Christmas, I assure you.
 
i took a huge shit one time.

theres also an episode of south park where stans dad takes a huge shit.. OMFG

Why did you have to inform me that?
Now I have to come up with another brilliant lie to get the game. Find me a new fake disease to tell my wife this game helps prevent.

How about Rock Band? I've got a PS3 and I know this game is just goin to rock, I mean you do need a break occasionally (from PC gaming..) and this game looks genius: http://uk.gamespot.com/ps3/puzzle/rockband/index.html

Yeah? I didn't try Rock Band yet.
When you're married with children (Al Bundy style) you don't get option. There are options (Don't get me wrong) you just don't get em. I don't have the luxury to have a choice or get breaks in life. Sorry, but that's how it comes at you when you're married.
There might be someone who will post something like "No its not like that, I'm married and I get to choose". I would like to tell you in advance, they lie.
 
I hate southpark. It's incredibly retarded.

I don't care what any of you retort with.
