It's so wierd that a whole generation of people are catching on to "Mad World ~ Gary Jules" from that commercial.

You have to watch the movie Donnie Darko... it's so much more relevant in there.

Exactly! That song is amazing. It fits the commercial in some twisted way but it fits Donnie Darko so much more.

If you rent the movie, make sure to get the directors cut. It's one of the few I've seen that isn't just a bunch of filler footage, but actually makes more sense then the original.

And the commercial used for the game is the actual game graphics. That's how good it looks while you're playing, and it's so bloody addictive.

i think that the end of civilisation makes for a madder world than some kid who gets saved by a bunny rabbit.

Agreed. I love Mad World.. it was originally done by Tears For Fears, but I prefer the Gary Jules cover. :)

that song for that kind of commercial was my idea. everyone and their mom and youtube would have made a gears of war commercial with either Requiem for a Dream or some metal song.

but in this case, you have juxtaposition.

It's part one of a trilogy. Probably why the ending leaves you so unsatisfied.
