“Made Possible By Microsoft”

I sincerely hope this is a joke on their part. I understand that Microsoft sponsored, but is that particular moment really the best time to mention it?
Hideous

Yeah, it’s a joke.

I see that Dan Paladin didn’t get punched.
Adamski

LOL! who’s the old lady?
Nicklas W Bjurman

It is hilarious but it still irks me that he just punches everyone.

It’s great, reminds me of the “I’m so indie that…” thread in the forums. I don’t understand what wasn’t indie about that girl’s colored ice beverage though.

Slurpppp

Well, drinking a slurpee isn’t indie at all!!

I love bowling!

To be truly indie, you have to make a home-made slushie. Out of fruits you grew yourself. From plants you genetically engineered.

_Yes_.
Ouch

So much viol..
Ben

Awesome!
PoV

About time it showed up on the front page here. :D

Seems a lot like the ‘Andy Punches’ SNL skit.

So making money of things games you make in your spare time isn’t indie? Pixel is making Cave Story for the wii for money. guess he’s not indie anymore.

Indie convent sponsored by Microsoft and Sony??! Totally not indie. Anal slavie I’d say.

“So making money of things games you make in your spare time isnâ€™t indie? Pixel is making Cave Story for the wii for money. guess heâ€™s not indie anymore.”

Well, they didn’t punch Dan Paladin, who makes money with his games. So I imagine the reason they punched that other guy was because his primary goal was to make “a lot of money” — making the game for that reason. Whereas you can make money from a game without it dominating the reason you are making the game.
A Guy

Or they didn’t punch him because he is *Dan Paladin*.
Trotim

Dan Paladin is Chuck Norris’ superhero form.
Zaikman

I’m surprised the satirical humor is lost on so many people! I took it to be a very tongue-in-cheek sketch that makes fun of the constant quibbling among the indie community regarding ‘what is indie’ and the exclusion of people who aren’t in our little clique because they’re not ‘indie’ enough.

They’re making fun of us, in a loving sort of way :)
Boris

Thanks for explaining that, Zaikman. Here I was thinking the video was suggesting that I punch anyone who isn’t indie. Really, I can’t believe it took 30 comments for someone to get it right. Shame on the rest of you for taking this video completely seriously!

Wait, this video wasn’t trying to incite me to go on an indier than thou punching spree?

Sorry, mom!
Andy

I will punch anyone that tries to analyze or criticize this video in a serious way. Seriously. I WILL PUNCH YOU.
ssid

would that be a… falcon punch?
Pyabo

Hey #26 and #27, did you know that the inability to recognize sarcasm can be used as a tool to detect Alzheimer’s in young patients? It’s true, I just read about it.

Maybe the two of you should get checked out?
the genius

WAIT I THINK THAT WAS SARCASM
Jay

Please note the irony in the fact that they didn’t say “sponsored by” Microsoft and Sony. They wrote “made possible by” Microsoft and Sony.
