I call out "assbag," and they come running.

 

[shuri]

She has the Cooking Mama box right by her in the CM review, and the "huge" cart is a regular GB cart, isn't it? The Lite is smaller, remember?

Edit: Also, apparently one of the sideprojects I'm half-involved in is hosting GameLife episodes. That's kinda funny.

Guys, he's one of them

I call out "assbag," and they come running.

i feel comfortable saying that i think its embarassing that someone would release something like that and have it associated with themselves. Geoff is the only reasonably decent part of the show. i dont think that makes me an assbag.

 

[squicken]

I mean, what the fuck makes any one of you superior to these kids in any way, shape, or form?

Smoking crack when I get older is not one of my goals.

[DenogginizerOS]

As I said a few pages ago (before the utterly disturbing images that my 4 year old almost saw), something fishy is going on with these kids and I would highly recommend backing away.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Maybe these disturbing photos are like the severed ear from Blue Velvet, and we're all about to be dragged down into the dark underworld of GameLife.

the whole gang broke kayfabe, acting normally.

[mollipen]

Cute girls with blood all over them make me a sad panda.

I dunno, being a Silent Hill fan... I think it's kinda hot.

here's that crazy guy's myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/unprofound

They all seem to be on myspace (check his friends list)

Melissa seems to have a interesting taste in food fetish magazines: gourmetgirls

Geoff has this on his page:

....im speechless

 

[meltpotato]

my inside source disagrees.

ill be checking with my inside source later this evening and reporting back.

also, this thread should probably be marked NSFW now.. and ill check it when i get home. haha.

 

[squicken]

It's some sort of scam. I just don't know if all the kids are in on the entire joke, or just some of them.

 

[vatstep]

I never thought GameLife could provide this much satisfaction and enjoyment on so many fronts. Entertainment, comedy, mystery, intrigue.. wowowow!

 

[Aryuken]

The coke picture isn't the worst of them.

What the fuck...

http://www.screwattack.com/gl.html

These guys...are too much for words. Wtf is up with ALL OF THEM!?

And that chick? 50 bucks saying she is no chick, there's gonna be some show, some video somewhere where her skirt will be pulled up and you will be seeing them ball hanging!!!

Too much!

 

[jooey]

you mean LA?

Caption-I can play DDR, I must be good in the sack.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

IT'S A TRAP!!!!

 

[shuri]

It's just getting weirder and weider. Geof went from being cool to being a furry, and now those pics are getting even more weird

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

HOLY SHIT. I THINK THAT'S HER DAD!

 

[Dsal]

WTF :lol
Whatever this whole thing turns out to be, it's entertaining at least .

 

[Porridge]

I mean they're genuine nerds and I love it. You see it in their show and even in their pictures.

I'm not even making fun, because I love nerdy people, especially compared to the recent "geek is chic" (God, I hate that word) trend.

GAMELIFE 4 LIFE.

 

[Matlock]

apparently a second person who was around disagrees

SCANDALTON

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

I can't stop looking at that photo, it's like a car crash happening over & over again.

What kind of people would love to make video games look bad by linking the industry to a bunch of "special" kids who are traveling around with a guy and a girl who are seen in ultraviolent images, porn images, and pictues of kids looking like they are on drugs? There are special interest groups who have had very little traction in getting games banned, but bad PR through the media can do the trick. I'm telling you all, journalists, developers, and gamers, to back away from all of this. I am not kidding.

 

[chespace]

Nice way to publicize their show. Now I wanna watch it too, creepy and all.

 

[Stench]

Cross-dressers, furries, drugs, simulated "death" porn...

I need a beer.

Nobody is trying to make games look bad. I think if anything, this Melissa girl and that older lad, both of whom have played and are likely trying to make their fortune in "fringe art," viewed the first episode, saw potential internet meme material, and set phazers to exploit.

That's my 30 second synopsis.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

Someone should post these photos on their forum, I bet the Melissa fans would "love it". :lol

if anything, gamelife is a carny attraction, which is very much attached to the word "kayfabe"

Picture GameLife getting traction in the national media and someone like Nancy Grace decides to go to the websites. She sees these pictures, and suddenly gamers are associated with a bouquet of disturbing images. Don't give the haters ammunition.

I think exactly the same.

 

[Mashing]

These guys are fucking geniuses.... this is like the ultimate viral marketing campaign I've ever seen. It wouldn't surprise me if they are lurking on this thread and laughing at all of us falling for this scheme of theirs. The popularity of their show has exploded, that speaks volumes about this whole ordeal. Oh and it also wouldn't suprise me if someone on the inside is posting these links for us to visit with weird shit (which as someone noticed) is getting wierder and wierder to draw us even further down the rabbit hole.

Fucking geniuses I tell you.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

I have to admit, the pictures of her being impaled through the neck by a picket fence did turn me on a little bit.

That's a bit more calculated than the more simple, and likely, scenario that I outlined. And as has been pointed out. . .what the hell would be the motive for making gamers look bad? Occam's razor -- they're in it for the money; whoever "they" are.

There are people out there who are crazier than Jack Thompson that would LOVE to link video games with a scandal of some sort. Blair Witch Project or not, you have been warned.

That's a little paranoid, even for my blood. Did you see the pictures the Older Guy has taken? He's not on some moral crusade. He's looking to make money in shock art, and he's found a more profitable venue than the folks that look at chicks impaled on fences.

You're almost entirely on the money. I'm sure what happened was that they both laughed at the first episode and joked about how funny it would be if they sent a game review in. She sent in her review, and since then the entire thing blew up. I doubt they had any idea it would get this big, and are most likely as surprised as anyone else is about it.

As for the pictures, big deal. It doesn't make them "creepy" because the guy likes to take photographs of horror movie setups. They probably just think it's "cool" and "edgy", even though it comes off as trying too hard. Are people who make horror movies all potential axe-wielding lunatics?

EDIT: After looking at his myspace page, the guy lives in LA. Maybe it's his job to do horror makeup or it's his portfolio.

 

[Mashing]

I'm curious, who coined that "creatively bankrupt" phrase (it was gaming related). I first saw it on here, but since then it's been used a lot. That's a curious name for a website of that nature. Meh, I'm probably just reading too much into that.

haha its funny how we keep calling them kids. i think the youngest one is at least 18, with the big dude being 25.

No, no, the proper reaction to those pictures is to flail your arms around like a hysterical old woman.
