Anyone see the Wavebird magazine ad?

It's pretty funny. It's a guy taking a crap, playing Spider-man in the next room using the mirror on the bathroom door to see the TV.

It reads...

"Nothing comes between a man and his game.

Not rooms. Not walls. Not even nature."



Edited: I thought he was looking through a glass door, rather than using a mirror.

Yup, I've seen it. It's a mirror, though, not glass. That's why the GameCube's backwards!

lol!! Thats a funny picture, I found it in the EGM.

I wish there was a site that had this picture scanned. Another funny advertisement is the Game Boy Advanced commercial on TV, some guy is getting a prostate exam and he's playing his GBA. it makes me cringe when the doctor says "going deeper..."

Yeah I thought the picture was pretty funny too. At first I thought it was a glass window, but then I thought "why the heck would the door to the bathroom be glass?" . Found it in my Game Informer.

Cool, but I don't think I could get used to pressing left to make my character go right, and vice versa.

Well, if you use a mirror you need to use two!
