Sega Australia offset the evil with a new Condemned 2 website
[youtube UID-5ROePis]
Sega Australia has created possibly one of the most disturbing websites ever.
The website has been made to help promote Condemned 2: Bloodshot. However unlike other Condemned sites, which contain dark settings, with scary monsters and brutal scenes of violence, Sega Australia has decided to go the other way and make a site using bright flowery meadows and pretty little pony’s all the colours of the rainbow. AHHH!
But seriously, this is all quite freaky really. You are treated to a pretty field with butterflies and lollipops, and “Percy the Pretty Pony.”
However the site has a darker, underlying purpose…
If you click on Percy, you are then treated to a wonderfully disturbing video (shown above), and then you play a game, whereby players need to move a large heart under the path of the ponies, as they try to jump across “the stream of smiles”, to get to a field of “heart flowers”. As you rescue the ponies they cry out “I love you!” and if you let them fall into the river, they shout out “It’s ok, I still love you!”
The game is basic, but there is a reason to the cute madness. As players help more and more ponies, and get higher scores, they unlock new items on the main page - like exclusive footage of Condemned 2 or a survey, asking how many hobos you have killed and whether you like to laugh at the finishing moves within the game.
Just by exploring the site you can find all sorts of random things, like a news article on some new Polar Bear Cubs or tickets to see Priscilla Queen of the Desert…
Check out the insanely brilliant website here.

Site seems to be down at the mo I’ll check again later but it looks awesome, this is totally the kind of advertising Sega needs to start doing. Sega of Australia gets my vote.

Wow. That was more frightening than the game (which, for reference sake, wasn’t scary at all)! Too bad the game wasn’t as much fun as that video.
