Haha yep. I was avoiding doing some cleaning and there wasn't anything else on.

Right after I had to call my bf and tell him about it. Now when he gets home I show it to him :)

It's a real commercial? Seriously???

I never watch commercials unless they're on youtube. ;)

Yep. I was watching the UGA/Tenn game on CBS and this commercial came on. It was probably only about 15min before this post was made (apparently I wasn't the only one watching that game :D

"There's no trucks in World of Warcraft!"

Who do I have to get exalted with for one of those? Or maybe some yearly event where I have to do a repeatable '[70] Pump Gas' quest for tickets? o:

On another note... parking would be SO much easier in real life if cars/trucks could just be summoned out like that.

Awww, but I like my current proffs. ;_; Well, at least my mage will be able to make one, then. By that time, forget about portals... "Everyone in the back! Road trip to Shatt!"

Does anyone else think that was a pretty lame attempt to cash in on WoW's popularity? Personally I didn't crack a smile, rather rolled my eyes, but that's me.

About 3 things wrong with it

The audience to play WoW (or understand the joke,) interested in getting a Truck, and actually watch football (initially anyway.) However maybe I'm just underestimating the WoW population but I don't think many people interesting in getting a new truck will understand that joke.

Good point.

It just seemed to me like a Dad joke, i.e. a lame attempt to be 'cool' and fit in with today's standards, or something.

WTF are explosive arrows, anyway?

::raises hand::

I have played WoW for over a year now (and have 9 decently leveled toons), my truck is a '95 Toyota 4x4 (which in '96 became the Tacoma), and I have gone to over 60 football games in the past 8 years (because I'm in the Band, but it still counts).

I thought it was stupid and jockish. Plus, I cringed that it was a mage. Mages should act better than that, imho.

lol wtf? even though the video isn't too clear, the truck is all finely rendered (well duh. otherwise the general audience wouldn't be able to tell it's a tacoma) in comparison to the rest of the environment. still nice though lol

Between this and WoW being named during the new vampire show Moonlight, I think it is now part of the Norm.

I thought it was pretty lame. It also was like...well, there we go, WoW has sold out to the masses, despite it still being hugely geeky. Way to go, you're using your game to shill stupid fucking trucks. GG Blizzard.

Not that I'm trying to start anything, but uh, they shilled coke a long time back in China. heh. As these things go, tie-ins are generally considered a good idea, keeps the fans (as the above posts demonstrate) generally happy.

Also, with the movie still very real and on the horizon, I think they'd want to start getting some exposure so that people aren't dumbfounded if they don't play when the trailers start hitting the preview slots.
