LAPD in STAND OFF with… Call of Duty STATUE!

[Game Over]

Story about a statue of "GHOST" from call of duty lead to a tense standoff between the statue and LAPD officers. They almost took it out when it refused to follow their commands. Robert Bowling (The talking head for Infinity Ward) was in the building and was secured and lead out of the building lol

I put up a small story write up with Couple images of the incident if anyone is curious and has not heard about it yet. Click Link Below

It does seem like a publicity stunt, right...?
"Our graphics are so realistic that even trained police officers couldn't tell the difference from a real human!"

 

[NeverBackDown]

Hence my :bs: flag

Lol fail

Of all the things that never happened, this never happened legitimately the most...

Dumb shit does just happen sometimes.

 

[Fruity]

Should have shot it anyway.

yeah but c'mon dude, look at the facts...

New game, 'new' engine, 'new' graphics. New Console with better 'revolutionairy' graphics. A button that no-one has seen before actives a quiet panic alarm and there just HAPPENS to be a dude stood somewhere with an M4 or whatever.

I call total, complete, publicity-stunt bullshit.

What are they advertising?

 

[seumasbeathan]

What are they advertising?

Their game :L

 

[SPS]

Their game :L

Which is?

 

[SuB]

Which is?

I'm going to give you a clue...

 

[SPS]

I'm going to give you a clue...

I understand it is a call of duty statue.

What I don't understand is that this was not at Infinity Ward, this was at Robotoki. They do not make CoD games. The only link to CoD is that the company's founder used to work at Infinity Ward and quit, Robert Bowling...

 

[antihero]

It would be even more blatantly obvious of an advertisement if this had taken place at Infinity Ward Studios.

Money can make people do funny things...

 

[NeverBackDown]

I can guarentee 50k more people will buy COD:Ghost just from crossing this on the internet... Hopefully none of those people are on PC. I just couldn't stand giving building advice to a 15 year old kid who only plays cod. Waste of a PC!:banghead: the only postitive side is that AMD/Nvidia/Intel can make more money which would help us enthusiasts

 

[SPS]

If anything this is a publicity stunt to get to Robotoki noticed, by cleverly using a well recognised name. This in no way advertises CoD.

 

[SieB]

People are so suspicious about everything :lol:
Things like this have happened in the past, I wouldn't exactly call it a publicity stunt.

meanwhile, at Infintyward HQ.
