there's another one that plays here during the day that we're trying to capture too.
it's got them developing games on iMacs, 'playing' games that were rendered verybadly on Max or some other program and composited poorly on the iMac screens.
Yea, this commerciall is on all the time, great stuff! They have another version for graphics design that has this bald guy with earrings, total goober. "hey do you have a sketchpad? pay us too much money so you can build a useless portfolio."
I think he sais "we just finished level 3, you need to tighten up the graphics a little bit" or some shit like that, but it is indeed priceless, put that guy in a real game studio, have him say that and then see a brick fly right in the FACE from the art dept.
Since I'm involved with a school that really does teach people to make video games, stuff like those ads just makes me shake my head. Victimizing the clueless. There's probably an oxymoron in there ... any school that spends it's budget on television advertising for its game development program is probably one you want to avoid.
i started a flame post in g4tv's forums about this commercial, it really urks me everytime I see it, I have to change the channel everytime, and they play it just about every commercial break too. If you notice closely, the guy in the pink twitches his face right after he says "and my mom said I wouldn't get ANYWHERE with these games" where do they find these psycho actors?! wtf!?!?!?
And why isn't it offered to residents in texas or massachusetts?
ARGH!!!

I saw this again last night, and noticed that the two dudes are "testing" on a PS1...
