What thebuck? Exactly.
We get lots of things in the mail. Games, mostly. But games makers and PR companies send us all manner of things. I wasn’t exactly surprised to see a massive inflatable buck head in my mail. You know you’ve been doing this for awhile when getting inflatable buck heads in the mail seems normal.
This is a strange promotion for Super Happy Fun Fun’sBig Buck Hunter Pro, an iPhone translation of the popular arcade game. Killing deer made pocket-sized. Good times.
But rather than be that games journo that scoffs at something like this, I thought I’d put it to good use. While others that got this left it in its neatly folded deflated state, I blew lungs full of hot air into the buck head, and then proceeded to mount it on my office wall…after scaring the sh*t out of my dogs, of course.
This buck head is now a permanent fixture of my office. It will forever overlook my workspace, watching on as I play games and then write about them. Watching on as I blog about games news and and releases. Super Happy Fun Fun, know that your promotional dollars have been put to good use here. I think we’ll become good friends, this buck and I.
What should I name this mother bucker?
