Get Insurance For Your Fighter (June 17, 2006)

[Cpl Hades]

Maj. Striker has created a video which is a parody of a series of commercials for an American insurance company. Perhaps insuring yourself against pirate attacks could be a feature in a future Privateer game. Maj. Striker had this to say about the idea.

I've been working on a WC type animation and last night a thought came to me to do a quick commercial. I work for Nationwide Insurance and if you've seen some of their recent commercials they have that tag line, "Life comes at you fast." I had the inspiration to make a quick commercial off of that. I went and quickly rendered this scene and threw some things together. I thought it was quite funny and since it is quasi WC related, I thought I would pass it along to you guys.

​

You can download the video here. I didn't see the pilot in the video eject so I'm not sure he'll be claiming on his insurance policy.

But I have good news! I just saved 15% on my starship insurance by switching to Geico!

I don't know how to drive, but that cartoon esurance girl makes me want to buy car insurance.

 

[Milatry]

[Bandit LOAF]

A friend-ship.

I thought it was funny but short. Great idea for future games.
