i guess it's *viral because it's an ad for the orange box

Anyone else think the music to the TF2 videos sounds like it was ripped straight from No One Lives Forever?

*viral siftbot making comments on here as to the inner-workings of videosift. All some goofball has to do is right *viral or whatever else keyword and can make siftbot make a comment. Hmmmm...wonder if it can be abused.

Jim, the whole TF2 theme reminds me of NOLF, Pixar's Incredibles, etc.

I guess you've never seen any spy movies from the 60's. It's like saying Day of Defeat is a ripoff of some WW2 shooter. Just look at the weapons and uniforms!

I do love these ads for Team Fortress... as well as being funny as hell they also demonstrate what Amazing character animation is possible with their engine... it's stylized sure, but the character in their facial animations is just spot on... better than anything I've seen in other games.

Gun totting hippy,i love.

It should sound like NOLF

The guys that wrote NOLF work at Valve now...AND sorta made these shorts

Pre-order the Orange box via Steam and you can play the beta this Monday (the 17th).

lol at the kill counter.

when you get the "orange box" if you already have Half life 2 and Ep 1 you give them to a friend for free not bad i guess. Anyway preordered god i love steam so easy to use its flawless unlike EA Link.

I will, however, call straight *commercial on it - that's what it is, essentially.

If both tags are valid, commercial trumps, I argue, since it's more specific - it's a real ad. Yeah, part of a viral campaign, but an ad in the campaign. They could totally run this in Mainstream Media (TV) if they budgeted for it.
