This Microsoft Visual Studio Team System ad, in which a group of developers challenge the Dread Cthulhu Youth League to a game of basketball, certainly didn't endear itself to Copyranter. Or us, really. Saying that "Fast teams score often and deploy early" is all well and good, but it doesn't really apply to what we're seeing, or make much sense on its own. They should develop this into an Xbox 360 game, though. I'd play it.
