Taliban uses playstation controller?

[laststandman]

I'm torn between whether that's an amazing idea, a horrible concept, or just plain hilarious. Nevertheless, its a horrible reality

 

[Eggsnham]

Read the first paragraph. Wow. I know Jack Thompson and Mike Atkinson would practically cream their pants to find this out.

"Shut up, Hussein! Wait for me to blow up these pethetic infedels!"

Heh, silly terrorists, when will they learn? Real men use Xbox-360 controllers!

 

[lonercs]

I'd love to a manual for how they rigged this controller up...

"Press 'X' to detonate bomb."

"Press 'Left Directional Pad' to call in Predator missile."

Also, I wonder how Taliban handle backseat gaming...?

"FUCK OFF, OMAR!! GO PLAY WITH THE RPG-7 WHILE YOU WAIT FOR MY TURN TO END!"

Should we tell them that RPG means Role-Playing Game, or should we let them by WoW?

"Omar, did you buy that RPG yet?" "I'm installing it now."
"Omar, this doesn't teach you how to make bombs!"
"How would I know, it's call Warcraft and is a rpg."

I can't come up with a "press X to not die" joke right now. But someone should.

Yeah, but it would be press X TO die, figuring it's a detonator.

Hm, looks like the Taliban is filled with Sony fanboys. It's obvious, we must arm our army with Xbox controllers! Imagine, driving a Humvee, WITH A CONTROLLER! Flying a F-16, WITH A CONTROLLER! T-Bagging that militant you just totally PWNED! WITH A CONTROLLER! R3! R3!

So much more accurate, Amirite? Those depressed sticks really help when playing CoD: Jihad. And the triggers! Love 'em so much more than the PS3's! The easier to kill you with my dear(infidel!)

I'm un-impressed. They should have used an N64 controller, where's the class. Oh, wait. They're terrorists, they have no class.

Hope that that ied failed.

Dude, nah. You need like 3 hands to use that thing!

 

[ma55ter_fett]

Does it rumble when the explosives go off to simulate the real life experience... wait..

 

[Samurai Goomba]

I thought there was a terrorist video game. You know... S'plosion man? Think about it. I mean, what's the moral of the game?

Blowing things up is the solution to every problem. So either terrorists or Michael Bay are behind 'S'plosion Man.

No- they shouldn't. There's no joke to this at all.

erm...yes there is, we just havent found it yet

Really? I don't see it. Why don't you tell this to someone who's been to Iraq or Afghanistan. I'm sure they won't think it's too funny.

Actually, my buddy in Uruzgan mailed me back that he wont be ragequitting as much now, if he's gotta go look for a new controller this way.
see, soldiers are the first to make jokes about this stuff

 

[rynocerator]

it only does everything

Oh god I LOLed so hard at that!

OT: Not surprising. They probably got the idea from US using controllers. Probably went through the wreckage of our vehicles.

 

[ProfessorLayton]

This is obvious evidence that all games cause evil. Oh yeah, cell phones are evil as well.

Press X to make the world safe for theocracy/ get 72 virgins in paradise?

I kid, I kid.

Anyhow, making a joke about the dogmatic nature of console fanboys - or any fanboys - is almost too obvious, so I'll just make a snide, smug, self-serving comment about the clear superiority of PC games.

You can probably detonate a bomb using a keyboard or the click of a mouse as well. Just sayin'.

 

[Slaanax]

Any wireless device with a decent projection range can be used to set off an explosive probably.

 

[GamerRelic]

im going to go to the CIA and tell them to start using NESs' to blow up taliban

 

[ImpostorZim]

Yeah, I can definitely see how this could be used against us. Next they're gonna say the Taliban practice playing Counter Strike.

Waiting for the Xbox 360 fanboys to spin this in their favor.

Noooooooo! Not my beloved PCs! I'll never let the Taliban have you!
