President Weasel Posted May 10, 2005 is that definitely the same guy? I saw that yesterday and since then I have come to suspect that is some sort of clone Microsoft had made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twilo Posted May 10, 2005 Man, his twat-ometer reading has rocketed off the scale; like he just performed his first "righteous hack". Seriously though, is this the direction game-making computer scientists are heading? Suddenly I feel like I'm on a ship and all the rats are jumping off.

netmonkey Posted May 10, 2005 I didn't know Microsoft marketed their employees, too! Next up: Bill Gates? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marek Posted May 10, 2005 No. Bill represents the Microsoft business as a whole, not just the Xbox brand. His geeky image is perfect for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
netmonkey Posted May 10, 2005 Aw, man! I want everything in Microsoft to have that 360 degree feeling though, yo! Like J Allard's earing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted May 10, 2005 I quite often move back and forth between bum clothes and hip stuff. I wear flannel with pride as I do this really stylish and queer sweater that I have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roderick Posted May 10, 2005 AHAHAHAHAHA, so this generation designers (or at least frontmen) should go Matrix? Lots of shiny latex and bald? Where are his sunglasses? I think he look spretty hip though. If it's his own decision I think he's become much more classy now. As opposed to his old self. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake Posted May 10, 2005 I bet he wanted to dress like that for a while but didn't have the guts/excuse to pull it off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris Posted May 10, 2005 I just think it's creepy as fuck not that he got a wardrobe change (which does make him seem like a poser but does not scare me) but that he actually appears to have de-aged at least 10 years. Clearly, very expensive plastic surgery was involved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
