Bike Hero

Waxy says, could be fake, could be marketing, is beyond awesome. I italicised that, because it so is.


I'm wondering what the gizmo on the handles actually is, too.

OMG, you're right, it totally is beyond awesome!

Wow, that's just crazy!

It's marketing, commissioned by Activision, but still kind of cool.

whether or not Bike Hero was deliberately created to be a viral video, it still rocks... i could not tell at any point that it was fake

It's viral, it was done by an ad company called Droga5, I talk about it in my blog here: http://blogs.popart.com/kevinplatt/archive/2008/11/25/gen-y-can-smell-a-fake-or-why-i-ve-watched-bike-hero-4-times-this-week-and-it-s-only-monday.aspx

nice, but definitely marketing. well done regardless.

the responses are great:
