Kick Boxing, Office Antics, Photocopied Butt Promotes 'Ultimate Fighter'
To promote the Spike TV's Ultimate Fighter 2, Ignited Minds has created an online game called The Office Octagon which pits colleagues against one another and tests their toughness in three rounds. Players can invite others to join the game via email or IM. The rounds include a flashing barrage of uncomfortable text, a slew of awkward pictures and a bombardment of embarrassing office insults. The first one to tap out loses.
Being a male focused show and a male focused game, the prized is, well, female related in the form of a photocopied, autographed image of a thong-clad butt. How original. Yet, sadly, how appropriate and on target.

That is one of the lamest games I have ever played...
soooooo lame. worst fight action ever.
Besides the pathetic execution, the lamest part of this is that we presented this very concept to SpikeTV and they turned it down! We mocked up storyboards, showing office workers duking it out, hurling watercoolers, lunging over desks... it was really funny and fun to play! I guess they regurgitated our idea and shat all over it, leaving this result. Blaaahh.
Boring and lame
