Where's option D. "Oh cool, this must be tied into that new Condemned video game Monolith hasn't bothered to announce yet." I mean, crazy hobo in a bar with bandaged hands is sort of Ethan Thomas' routine, isn't it? Having him pick up a chair leg and bat at imaginary tar creatures brought on by his alcohol addiction would have helped the authenticity. I need to get out more. |

True, I don't think they understand their demographic. Or do they? This stunt made big(ish) news for being a flop, but what if getting busted for a failed PR stunt was the real PR stunt? I mean, it's most likely gotten more attention than if the initial stunt had worked. Which means either they intentionally did it, which makes them cynical pricks, or it was a legitimate cock-up, which makes them idiotic fuckwits. Ok, now I'm turning into a conspiracy theorist. Someone shoot me. |

true yet i'm not more inclined to buy the game because of their stupid stunt so technically they gained nothing by making us lol over it. |

I think most people had already made up their minds whether or not they were going to get the game, so I doubt it helped them at all in the long run. The question now is where do PR cock-ups go from here? Sony's dead goat set the bar pretty high, this has managed to raise it, so what misguided marketing ploys can we expect now? |

Don't give Channel 9 credit, Patrick Swayze was doing it earlier with Ghost 2. |
