Seen@TGS: Your very own end of the world
We're all for accessorizing and taking advantage of pertinent merchandising opportunities and everything, but maybe selling individual, snack-size vials of the world's most-dangerous substance isn't the best idea? Maybe you should sell the apocalypse for more than $20, is what we're saying.On a related note, we bought one and now we can't find it or the dog, so maybe now would be a good time to invest in crowbars.
Avon teams with Resident Evil's Umbrella Corp. for face cream?
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/gaming_news/Avon_teams_with_Resident_Evil_Umbrella_Corp_for_face_cream'; ... OK, so this is a joke, right? Avon isn't serious with the design of its Derma-full face cream, an exact replica of Resident Evil Apocalypse's T-virus. We were astounded recently when we caught the commercial for Avon's product on television, a "skin care breakthrough," delivering "fullness perfected, not injected" for aging skin. The beauty in all of this is not only does Avon's bottle look like that of the T-virus, but, in the film, the Umbrella Corporation's Regenerate product was also originally intended as a similar skin-rejuvenation cream. We're thinking some young marketing guy at Avon got a big laugh when he got this passed. Enjoy comparing both commercials after the break.
