Third ‘You’ve Been Chosen’ Teaser Released By BioWare
  |  @   |  

Another teaser has been released by BioWare and EA for their mysterious You’ve Been Chosen game, which has had a bizarre and intriguing viral marketing campaign thus far.

The teaser, called “Impact,” fits in with the previous two videos (“Nightmare” and “Spark”), all being cryptic and strange. It would appear that the game could possibly be some kind of mix between X-Men and Harry Potter, where people with special abilities are chosen for something, but nothing is confirmed yet.

Lawyer Wields Flaming Sledgehammer In Awesome Local Super Bowl Ad
  |  

During the Super Bowl last night, citizens of the city of Savannah, GA were treated to what is possibly the most metal ad for a personal injury lawyer that you will EVER see.

In the 2-minute commercial created and directed by Jamie Casino, titled “Casino’s Law,” the personal injury lawyer chronicles his own journey from high-powered criminal defense attorney to practicing personal injury law after the murder of his younger brother. Now, if that conjures up images of a guy in a bad suit talking about how he can get you the money you deserve, you are thinking wrong! Imagine instead a music video for the song “Devil Gets Your Soul” by Nick Nolan about murder, vengeance, mourning, and redemption ending with a smashed tombstone and a flaming sledgehammer. It has to be seen to be believed! Check it out here below.

  |  @   |  

A new viral website has gone live for Trask Industries, the fictional corporation from the upcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past headed by Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage), whose goal is to protect humans and their freedom from the ever-growing mutant threat with his creations, including the Sentinel program. The program, which was first launched in 1973, sees the mutant threat combated with 18-foot, nearly 5,000-pound artificial intelligence machines called Sentinels designed to destroy mutants.

The website gives us our first look at Dinklage as Trask, in all his ’70s glory, as well as loads of information on what the company does, why mutants are dangerous, and why you’re safe with Trask’s defense systems. Also found on the site are a video for the company and some cool images/propaganda posters, which can be seen below.
