If I watch this and Ice-T isn't in it I'm gonna be pissed.

The grainy old tymey footage at the beginning is a weird choice. It kind of makes the first few seconds of crystal clear CGI look a little worse.

The ray gun he's holding at 2:49 in the video is Dr. Grordbort's Righteous Bison - I got one for Festivus from my sister a few years ago. It's amazing, and just as effective against innocent alien beings as you imagine.

He's British? Coulda' fooled me.

But seriously, nicely done.

Good, but there weren't enough hats.

Grordbort's! As I think lholladay knows, Weta and Valve are using a bunch of the Grordbort's designs as weapons in Team Fortress 2.

I still have nightmares about a last minute push on cp_foundry ruined by an engineer and his damned Pomson. You don't fuck with a man's Ubercharge, you just don't.
