One part Heavy Metal, one part Samurai Jack, and one part Del the Funky Homosapien equals all parts awesome. And to think most of the best characters aren't even in this video. This sucker needs to be a multimedia franchise. Fuck the Avengers; we Battleborn now.

Wow, how'd I miss this?
Pretty damn beautiful. Nice choice of song as well.
Battleborn sponsors WWE right now, so it's actually a current game I've heard of. This has now piqued my interest. Is it any good? What's it like?

Love it. It's a multiplayer-based FPS (although it does have an option for single player) with a really huge and awesome cast of playable characters. It's kind of being squashed by Overwatch right now since the two games are pretty similar and Battleborn is the weird quirky shooter on the block with lots of heart next to Blizzard's super pretty graphics and insane fucking marketing blitz, but that shit is half a game; even more so than Street Fighter was. Battleborn is where it's at. The characters are just insanely fun and they have in-game dialog for practically every situation. One Buddhist character occasionally says "I was just a beetle for like six months....what were we doing again?" when she respawns and they all have material like that. With 26 characters, that's a lot of charm and humor to go around. They also talk character-specific trash to each other in multiplayer. Some of them I've played like ten hours as and I still hear new lines. That kind of dedication in a multiplayer shooter is RARE.
