Video Flagged Dead

Tighten' up those Graphics!

A horrible commercial for Westwood College Online. Two "game designers" are shown playing a game and are asked by their boss for pointers on the game.

For some reason when I saw the screenshot I thought it looked like a spoof the brothers Chaps* might've done.

Seriously though, "tighten up the graphics"? What the hell does that even mean, besides nothing?

as a professional game designer I hate what they did here and feel it completely discredits their college. However, it's a regular source for quotable humor at our studio. We fairly regularly ask each other to tighten up the graphics.

But seriously, what are these guys supposed to be? In the commercial they kind of act like they are testers, then they talk about the graphics, then the lady asks them to design another game. It's very unfortunate that this is how a very techincal and difficult profession is portrayed by academia. I would expect this from fox news, but a college? damn.

well it's an online "college", so to call it a college is a bit incredulous. In fact they mention that it is not intended for residents of Mass and Texas, which makes me think that they are skirting some state laws awfully carefully.
