So if you're just joining us,
I am here with Andrew Kincaid.
Brainchild behind sentinel,
the world's most rapidly
growing video game company.
And if I may say so, now,
one of the most powerful
men on the planet.
You recently made
headlines for your
campaign against the
preservation of the right
to bear arms in this
second amendment war
that's been raging
in Washington.
Complete with catchy slogan,
"keep guns in games."
Well it's something that
I'm very passionate about.
We've lost touch with how
lucky we are to be here.
Uh, we piss on the planet.
We piss on the animals, on
nature, and on each other.
And then we raise our fists
in protests for our right
being killed left and right.
And then we delude
ourselves into believing
that gun that we own could
21st century American military.
Gun ownership in this country
is an obsolete tradition.
It can't protect us anymore.
In fact, it's
clearly hurting us.
Well, certainly a very
traditionalist perspective
to support gun ownership.
And the number of failed
bills reflects that.
Traditions still stand
strong in America.
That makes me very sad.
I mean, what is it gonna take
to get that point across?
contain violence to video games?
Well, we're never gonna contain
it, but we can direct it.
Play a game.
Play one of my games.
Flight's not delayed
like we thought.
Out the door in thirty, okay?
Ors, we are not gonna be able to
sort through all these things.
And speaking of your games,
what can you tell us about
the rumors that your top
security officer, Orson
creed, has been pushing
to move sentinel into
military contracts.
Come on.
I dare you.
Orson, we need to go.
Yeah, hold on.
I need to hear this.
And how it can best be
used to serve to public.
Mr. creed and I fall on
different sides of the aisle.
And let's be clear about this.
This is not the first time
intellectual property.
it will be the last.
the one saying...
Under his direction, sentinel
becomes a military
tech developer.
Are you hearing this?
Marrying ourselves to
tradition has held us back.
People are resistant to
the future, but that
doesn't stop it from coming.
And if it's not me, it's
gonna be the next guy who
takes up the reigns.
At the end of the day,
it's your quarter.
If any of you are unfamiliar
with Mr. Kincaid's
gaming ambitions,
and from the numbers,
there can't be too many.
We've heard of where you think
take sentinel...
Tell us what you're doing
here, what you've done.
I wanted to take the gaming
world and I wanted to push it.
I wanted to push the inner
activity, the gameplay,
the environment.
Players wanna be in the game.
And right now, we're
closer to that than
anyone's ever been before.
Well, you know, some of
your critics have been
pretty vocal about
their issues with that.
Especially given your outspoken
stance against guns.
Yeah, I think you'd be
surprised how many of
those critics have secret
Look, I have an issue with
guns on the street and I
think that that issue will
be resolved. So...
Take one more look around.
I'll start the car.
Hey.
I love you for not being him.
In America, we are in the
business of making money.
Come here.
If I can do that while making
Buddy, I call that
the American dream.
People are literally
controlled by their phones
the games that the play.
Abbie!
We live in a world
dominated by technology.
Let her go.
You can call it sad, or you
can call it whatever you want.
But you can't argue
one fact, it is now.
Oh...
Just you.
Just me.
Come on.
Thought you might come
outside for this one.
Quit playing around.
Come on.
Give it to me.
Man, when is Kincaid gonna
stop with all the discs?
Yeah, I guess it is kinda
old school for a new
school guy, huh?
Really nice way to say
someone's paranoid.
Says the man who refuses
to leave his house.
Shut up, Bernard.
This is a new adventure.
Stay tuned.
- See ya.
- Mhm.
Right on time, my Princess.
Oh, gee. You know how I love
it when you call me Princess.
So your highness, how art
thou on this majestic morning?
I'm good! Another
day at the office.
Jerry brought me crepes
for breakfast this morning.
Jerry. That bastard.
You tell that Jerry
that you're mine.
All mine.
Uh huh.
get out of your house and
take me out.
Oh, Princess.
How can you resist
my sex appeal?
Oh, nothing sexier than sitting
on the other end of the phone
while your coworker mods
a game against protocol.
You know, first of all, that
only happened like three times.
- Four times.
- Whatever.
And second, mods made
the games better.
Uh huh.
Oh right.
Let me give you your moment.
So tell me about this game.
Well, you won't be
modding this game.
I can tell you that.
Okay.
This is the one.
The Kincaid prophecy.
The dream game.
The one where you get
to be in the world.
Really?
This?
Oh, hey!
Keep talking.
I'm listening.
Just gotta grab my pizza.
Well, you'll be testing
the game frame mostly.
Kincaid isn't ready to
reveal the real tech just yet.
So can you tell me
about it then?
Exactly how are
you in this world?
No comment.
Can we get some comment?
Any comment.
Absolutely no comments.
What about the rumors?
He said no comment!
Let's go, let's go.
Hey, did you hear me?
Hello?
Sorry, no.
Uh, let's get started.
We have a lot to cover.
Alright.
Let's do this.
From behind.
Let's go.
Guys, we are on the clock.
Gotta go, gotta go.
Almost got it.
Done!
Done.
What?
Pack up the gear.
I'll get the girl.
Come on, boys.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Enjoy the ride, old friend.
Style is great.
Realistic.
Kincaid wanted a
grounded universe.
Meaning real human movement
with a stylized aesthetic.
To distract from the
intense violence no doubt.
You're so smart.
You know.
Can't say I've seen a game
start like this before.
No menu, no options, no loading.
Total immersion.
That's the goal.
Man, that looks
like Orson creed.
So?
Guess they designed it
before the total fallen
out of destruction thing.
I guess so.
Ah, it's amazing.
Almost like I can see anger.
Pretty good, huh?
Damn good.
I guess I'm supposed
to grab that.
Yup.
Play me.
Cute.
Hey, ors!
Good to see you're up and about.
I bet you're wondering
about now just what the
hell did we do to you.
But you should know, how
own artwork, right?
We've got a series of
tasks for you, ors.
And I can't wait to see
you make it through
because I know you will, buddy.
You'll have 90 minutes to
complete each objective.
