Lazy writer video time
Yes it’s that time again, no not that time again get your head out of the gutter. It’s time for me to post funny videos because I’m too busy and/or lazy to write a real article, yes that’s right writer’s filler. So onwards.
De-rez: TF2
You may know of the escapist for the great Yahtzee videos, but there’s more to the site than just an angry fast talking trilby wearing games critic. Oh yes, there’s de-rez a brilliant set of videos from some Irish lads with a camcorder, some very funny ideas and very little budget. They’ve parodied mortal combat, Jack Thompson, resident evil and done a search for Gordon Freeman (my personal favourite). But now they’ve finaly done a TF2 video;
GF TF2
The second one is from a little known Australian blog called lavalevel. Basically the guy convinced his non-gamer girlfriend (what? A gamer with a girlfriend?! Yes such a thing is possible) to play TF2 and recorded the results. This video has been around for awhile so you may of already seen it, but I wanted to post it as it got me back into playing TF2 in a big way when I saw it. And no it’s not because of the revelation that there are female players, well not entirely the reason. It’s such a joy to see and hear someone that’s never played a game before, it brings back good memories of the first time you played the game. The not knowing what’s round the corner. Seeing unexpected things unfold for the first time. It’s also sweet to hear her emphasise with each character, shows that Valve have done a bang up job bringing these characters to life. It reminded me of all the little things I loved about the game that I started to take for granted. He’s made a little series of videos of her playing games and narrating, the newest is GF:CS with some great lines “Are Counter Strike players just always really cross and angry? Everyone on Team Fortress is nice and friendly. Everyone here so tense and swears alot.”
So that’s all for now, maybe next time I may write an actual article. Maybe, maybe. And remember we do not complain about how the sentry looks.
Stumble it!

Haha, I thought the way the guy in the first video said “It’s just a piece of cardboard!” was the best thing ever, and then it was beaten about 10 seconds later.
Wussy-ass snipers.

The GF TF2 one was cute, stupid, and funny at the same time.
“What’s the point of being invisible if I can’t shoot”
and the
“Can he see past me? *HEADSHOT*”
parts were the funniest.
