World of Officespace

Post by Granh »

Was watching ESPN just now and saw a WoW commercial using office space footage. Part where he's sitting at his desk playing Tetris and Lumberg wants to talk to him. "Not now Lumberg I'm kinda busy". Can't seem to find it anywhere on the world wide web yet. Maybe you guys have better skill at the internets than I.

Only WoW/Office Space stuff I've heard of.

Swear to God.

Was eating in break room and some other guy started laughing at it too. Turns out there's another nerd that works here who plays. Could get him on here to verify, but I'm sure it'll be on the net sooner or later. Might just be so new it's not been web-afied yet.

What struck me weird was it was on ESPN. They're talking about college football one minute, and then this thing airs.

I just saw it. It's the scene where Lumburgh walks up to him when he's leaning back in his chair looking as his computer. It then shows a closeup on his screen where he's playing Warsong Gulch.

Haha yea, minutes after reading this I just saw the commercial on Cartoon Network. Gotta give props to Blizz's advertizing team I guess.

I saw it too... and he had a WOW box on top of his computer monitor. Made me laugh and wonder if that commercial was what spawned the whole "Office Space WoWized" thread (which was genius).
