"I am a gamer"

I don't know how this slipped under the radar, but this is some comedy gold right here.  Watch this video: "I am a Gamer" by TheGamersCave  Cringe at how awful it is, and laugh at how many times it has been justifiably downvoted.

Now watch this parody video, "I am a druggie," it's pretty funny.  According to the description, TheGamersCave had the audacity to flag the video and threaten ToriStick to take it down or else his team of lawyers would take him to court.

Another parody video/YouTubePoop entitled "I am a Virgin" was created several months later.  In it TheGamersCave goes into damage-control mode and states that it was a joke and that he thought that the parodies were funny.  Nevermind all that stuff about threatening with lawyers!  The comments are hilarious too.  I like how he unleashed his own army of loyal fans to try to defend him.

I'll just leave this here...

"Carbon Stars..."

Tom Kranis recently released his mappack containing rejected levels and cutscenes.  I was first made aware of Tom Kranis when he released his very interesting Halflife 2 map entitled "A Dog Was Hit In The Head With An Ax".  Of the cutscenes, included are scenes of Dog getting hit in the head with a BSP-designed axe, Dr. Breen giving his famous 'Carbon Stars' speech in various locales, and lots of other stuff.  If anything, I'd say that 90 percent of the mappack is rubbish, but it's definitely worth checking out if you're into mapping as there are really cool effects, gameplay concepts and ideas that have not been seen in any other Halflife 2 mod (remote controlled scientists, an automatic oil drum launcher, npc who follows you and wears a machinegun on his head that you can control, just to name a few) in addition to humourous cinematography (most of which I've recorded so you don't have to go through them).

Be sure to watch this video walkthrough of "A Dog Was Hit In The Head With An Axe."  Worth checking out if you can't bring yourself to finish the map all the way through.
