What the What?

In all honesty this article poses more questions than it answers:

It was hiding in a box of Crackdown 2 swag that the kind meisters at Microsoft rather belatedly sent us today. We got some cool stuff including some quite nicely made orb keyrings.

(Though they also sent us 4 lovely looking Crackdown 2 orb T shirts as well. Unfortunately as well as there being only 4 of them they were also pretty small sized. Given the physical size and shape of most people in the game development community its kind of hard not to interpret this offering as sarcastic in some way. But I digress)

Yeah, this Crackdown 2 branded -thing- I really don’t quite understand what it is or what the thinking behind it. As with most things I don’t understand it makes me feel a bit insecure that I’m too stupid to understand the intricately clever cogitations that have gone into its creation.

Usually it turns out that the thing I don’t understand is actually quite stupid. I’m not sure where we are with this one. Hopefully I’ll work it out soon.

In the meantime it’s sitting on my desk, banana and spatula in hand, beside its mysterious television set and emblazoned with a CD2 logo going “What?”

Nice
