I'm outraged at how retarded this video is.

Hello there and welcome to VideoSift!

I noticed your first video - unfortunately, it raises some suspicion of self-linking. You should probably read about the rule in the FAQ: http://www.videosift.com/faq-en.php#posting_guidelines

I know you enjoyed Black Hawk Down, so hopefully http://www.videosift.com/video/Near-perfect-movie-Trailer-for-war-drama-The-Hurt-Locker will excite the hell out of you, too

While it's somewhat of a dream for me to be employed by an independent dev of Infinity Ward-caliber, unfortunately I couldn't really say I'm involved in the industry at the moment. I've merely been a... I guess the word is "producer" for a single casual game and for half a year I've also been co-producing another RPG/adventure/quest game that's got a twist to it, which, in the case of success, will hopefully lead to (read:greenlight a big, completely unique project, that would be aimed at establishing gaming as a recognized and respected social medium among non-gamers, sort of a PR-project for the whole industry.

Among GraterGraterers that I know are in the industry are Zonbie (who's an artist for the upcoming World in Conflict: Soviet Assault RTS) and there's also crushbug, who's been working with BioWare for more than 9 years. But I bet there's whole lotta more of them

Cheers, Ed

I'm a coder on MW2, doing mainly rendering and gameplay. I've only been working at this company a little under a year, so I wasn't at all involved in CoD4.

Are you in the industry? Is there another grater who works in games?

Thanks for the kind words! I really like the teaser, too.

Oh my goodness -another- one of you lucky bastards who enjoys being employed at a game developer with top-quality products.

Seriously, I am green with envy here. Incidentally, what's your line of work if that's not under non-disclosure?

P.S. I genuinely meant what I said there, it's the best teaser I have ever seen (and I absolutely can't stand teasers 99% of the time).

Obligatory upvote. I would have posted this myself, but since I work on MW2 at Infinity Ward, I *think* it would have counted as self-promotion.

Thanks for putting this up, EDD!

The lovely dames of my local monastery suggest a combination of Baby Jesus and the Diving Nun for the ultimate divine Geesus-spot experience.

np what's awesome is you sifting quality videos like the one in question. what's less awesome is sifters not appreciating it like they should

In reply to this comment by Deano:
EDD, that's totally awesome of you!

Indeed, this one is destined for great things. A likable fellow, already went charter (probably lurked for some time, eh?) and a prolific *quality sifter to boot; very nice to see you join into our fold !

How much?

No don't think he noticed his shoe go missing. I always wonder why is it that you occasionally see just one shoe on its own and now I think I have the answer.
I mean I can kind of understand it with gloves - you drop one and don't notice it, or you lose one and try to find it or you're in too much of a hurry and a glove is not that important.
But who are these people who don't notice their shoes?
It's these insensitive mother fuckers who don't give two shits about their feet or their shoes. That guy just kept on running and over that fence.
He didn't even have the decency to fucking limp.
Now that really pisses me off.
Can people please learn that you do not have the right to just walk all over your feet or your shoes?
"One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you"
Although that's technically boots and I don't think anyone truly has empathy for boots, but I read that lyric metaphorically to mean something more like shoes/feet than actual boots. I don't think the song writer was being literal in this case and actually meaning boots. I do like the way that certain songs can have meanings that go a little deeper than the literal reading of the lyrics. Anyway I don't really think that it would be boots or feet that would come back to haunt us. It's really going to be the shoes exacting their revenge.

Another thing is I don't really like the title "Train Knocks Man's Shoe Off". How is this the train's fault? I mean the train was present and doing what trains do, and it's pretty indisputable that it must have been the train's contact with the shoe that resulted in it's removal, but really if anyone is to blame, it's the man. You could be pretty awful and blame the shoe, but really I can't imagine you'd do that.
"Man Removes Shoe using Train" might be more accurate at least in terms of apportioning blame appropriately, I don't think it accurately portrays the man's callousness though so maybe something along the lines of "Man Tries to Kill His Own Shoe using Train"
would express some of my rage at the incident, but maybe there's a more balanced way of expressing it.
